Thomas Elbert Shannon was one of 8 children born to Samuel Hill Shannon and Mary Boswell Shannon.
He married Frances Corra Henderson about 1878 and they were the parents of 6 children.

MS Death Certificate #11363 dod 9 July 1922, age 67 yrs., 4 mos, 21 days. This calculates a dob as 2 February 1855. DC gives
dob as 18 Feb. 1855. Tombstone gives dob as 2 February 1855, so I have chosen to use this as correct date of birth.
DC gives cause of death as angina pectoris. Certifying physician was Dr. J. M. Shamburger, burial in Toomsuba on 10 July
and undertaker as L. L. Price, Toomsuba. L. L. Price was not an undertaker as we consider it today, but he sold caskets and burial clothes.
Informant was Pearl Shannon (his daughter) of Toomsuba
