  I cannot find my original source for the marriage date of 12 Jan 1826 for Reuben and Cassia and have searched online in vain as of 2018. However, when consulting Reuben's 1850 census record with second wife Sarah, the oldest Booten child in the household, Stephen Booten, is twenty one years old. This gives credence to Reuben's marriage to Cassia at least before 1829. This census is also the source for the second marriage of Rueben to Sarah. It is likely that this is Sarah's second marriage as there are teenage Canon children in the household as well as Bootens. "United States Census, 1850," database with images, <i>FamilySearch</i>(https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M8DY-8RP : 12 April 2016), Reuben Booton, Wayne county, part of, Wayne, Virginia, United States; citing family 290, NARA microfilm publication M432 (Washington, D.C.: National Archives and Records Administration, n.d.).

  The source for the marriage of Reuben to Sarah Cannon is "Kentucky Marriages, 1785-1979," database, <i>FamilySearch</i>(https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:F444-ZFQ : 4 December 2014), Reuben Booten and Sarah Cannon, 25 Oct 1844; citing Greenup, Kentucky, reference ; FHL microfilm 343,995.
  Name Reuben Booten
 Spouse's Name Sarah Cannon
 Event Date 25 Oct 1844
 Event Place Greenup, Kentucky
  Sarah was most likely the widow of Jeremiah Cannon. There is a marriage of a Jeremiah Cannon to a Sarah Davis in Greenup County, Kentucky, the same county in which Reuben and Sarah Cannon were married, on 25 January, 1831. This location fits, the names fit, and the marriage precedes the birth of the oldest Cannon child on the 1850 census cited above.
  No record for the death of a Jeremiah Cannon has been found as of 2018.
