Osman and Amanda's Children

return to parents' page:  Osman L Laughlin and Amanda Catherine Canady

Please note: Other than listing the children of Amanda Catherine Canady and Osman Laughlin (plus their basic information), 
we are not actively pursuing lineage of their descendants at this time. If a descendant steps forward 
with data, documentation and photos, we will add it, but we are not currently researching this line.
This basic data was added becasue of the connection of Amanda's father (James Harrison Cannady) to Amanda Melvina Bowman (Valerie's primary line of research).
