Wife of Maj. Samuel Taylor.
She died at San Salvador Plantation, Pendelton County, South Carolina, much of which is now located on property of Clemson University.
Part of her parentage is unclear. Some say Cannon was her middle name while others say it was her maiden name. She was certainly the daughter of Mrs. Ann Cannon Hudgins/Hudgens but whether the daughter or stepdaughter of Ann's second husband William Hudgins is uncertain.
To complicate matters, some family trees show Eleanor's first husband was Ambrose Hudgins, either a cousin or her stepbrother, by whom she had one daughter, Sarah Ann Hudgins. DOLLIE CANNON DAVIS says, however, that Ambrose Hudgins was married to Joanna/Hannah. His will names her and his children. He testified for Ann Cannon for her application for Revolutionaty War pension that William Cannon had given a slave to Nancy Hudgins. Ambrose was most likely the brother of the Hudgins (whom) Eleanor married since he (Ambrose) was still alive when Eleanor married Samuel Taylor."
