Thanks Len and Tim for your suggestions. Len, I think, again, you may be right. I would like to look again at the passenger list film, to see if there is any possible way to turn Cannell into Cannon.

But, if we assume that the Cannell family on the Meridian is actually a Cannon family, and, indeed, the Cannon family from Kk Lonan, then this is what we have:

Philip Cannon family of Kk Lonan

Philip Cannon was born about 1779. He married, at Lonan, November 7, 1811, Margaret Lewin.

They are perhaps the family of Philip Cannell (sic), who immigrated from Liverpool on the Meridian, arriving in New York, July 2, 1827.

Alas, I have not been able to find this family before the 1850 census--I wonder if they were in New York, perhaps.

I look forward to your comments, corrections, additions. I would be happy to supply sources if desired.
