PREFACE

For many years I have had a strong desire to know more about the Cantrill family, but not until 1S97 was sufficient data obtained to furnish a reliable basis for this work. It is published now with a full knowledge of the many imperfections that will be manifest to many who read it. Many difficulties have attended the collection and compilation of the material and at times the work has been most discouraging. If some branches of the family have been treated briefly, it is only owing to the lack of information and meager data furnished by the descendants.

It is with a deep realization of how impossible it is to make any History, or Genealogy, of a family entirely perfect, that I now publish the result of mere than ten years' research. It is probable that it could be made more complete by waiting and working longer, but many of those who have been interested in the collection of the material have already passed away, others are growing old, and the writer is anxious to put into permanent shape the information collected, which has never been printed regarding the Cantrill family before. The Cantrill family is one of the oldest families in America. In the course of this work innumerable histories, genealogies and records have been carefully searched in the Astor and Lenox Libraries, New York Historical Society, New York Genealogical Society and Court Records, New York; Brooklyn and Pratt Libraries, Brooklyn; Boston Library, Historical Society and Court Records, Boston; Friends' Library, Pennsylvania Historical Society, Records of old Philadelphia churches and Court Records, Philadelphia; Pennsylvania State Library. Harrisburg; Court Records, Westchester, Pa.; Illinois State Library, Springfield; Congressional Library and Census Department, Washington; and Court Records in New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, North Caro- lina, South Carolina. Tennessee and Virginia. A thorough search has also been made in London, England, of Court Records and emigrant lists of the seventeenth century by a reliable English genealogist. I am also indebted to Rev. Edgar Harlan Kellar and x PREFACE

Mrs. Francis Hardin FI.^s for searching records at the British Museum, London. In finishing this self-imposed task, which has also given me many hours of pleasure and profit, I wish particularly to express my appreciation of the encouragement and material help that has been given me by Mrs. William A. Cantrell, Little Rock, Ark.; Mrs. James E. Cantrill, Georgetown, Ky.; Miss Mary Cantrell, McMinnville, Tenn.; Mrs. Laura Cantrell Kinser, Tellico Junction, Tenn.; Mr. John H. Cantrell, Chattanooga, Tenn.; Mrs. W. W. Whiteside, Oxford, Ala., and to many others. Finally, in presenting these facts regarding the history and genealogy of the Cantrill family which I have been able to collect, I do so in the hope that they will be an inspiration to every member of the family to continued patriotism to our country, and pride in our family.

William Chantrell, temp King John, was probably the first of the name in England. In the "History of Melbourne, County Derby," second edition, (no date), page 175, by J. J. Briggs, the author says: "The Cantrells were a very ancient family and are supposed to have been located at Kings Newton about five hundred years. By deeds still extant in the family, we find that they possessed lands there as early as the reign of Henry V, about 1413. Other deeds and surveys also show that they were considerable landed proprietors during the reigns of Henry V, Henry VI, Edward V, Edward VI and Henry VII." From the "History of Cheshire," by Ormeod, we learn that the Chantrells were possessed of lands in Cheshire as early as 1412, and in this History the pedigree is given of John Cantrell, 1424 (taken from the "Plea Recog Rolls "), with the same coat-of-arms " that is given later in the " Visitation of Cheshire, 1580, of Chan- trell of Bache; " Visitation of Suffolk," 1612, of Cantrell of Bury St. Edmunds and " Visitation of Berkshire," 1664, of Cantrill of Wokingham. Various histories of Cheshire have a great many records, covering a period from 1422-1558, showing that the family of Chantrell was a prominent one and that they were large landed proprietors, and speaking of the family as a very ancient one.

The name is enrolled in English records as patriots, soldiers, sailors, college graduates, schoolmasters, barristers, writers, rectors and vicars of the Church of England. Hugo Chantrell was an archer in the retinue of Lord Grey of Codner at the Battle of Agincourt, 1415. John Chantrell received special favors from the Prince of Wales in 1460 for good service at the Battle of Bloreheth. Ralph Cantrill was Vicar of Chesterfield in Derbyshire in 1461. William Cantrell, a Master in His Majesty's Navy, particularly distinguished himself at Trencomale in the East Indies, Decem- ber 16, 1747, on an occasion where few would perhaps have shown the same contempt of danger. In bringing powder from the magazine one of the boats blew up and a large firebrand fell blazing into another boat, in which were forty-five barrels of powder, covered only by a sail; it stove one of the barrels and must inevitably have sent all the people employed into the air, had not Mr. Cantrell taken the burning brand from the powder, thrown it overboard,

HISTORY xiii

quenched the remains of the fire on the sail and restored all to safety. There are many interesting records in Derbyshire of the Can- trell, or Cantrill, family (as the name is alternately spelled), which was closely identified with St. Alkmund's Church for over a century. St. Alkmund's Church is supposed to have been founded as early as the ninth century, and is undoubtedly the oldest church in Derby. In the Register of this church is an autobiography of John Cantrell, minister and schoolmaster, covering a period from 1627 to 1656. John Cantrell had a son Simon Cantrell, who was the father of Henry Cantrell, a miscellaneous writer and Vicar of

St. Alkmund's for fifty years, in whose honor there is a flag within the Commune Rails of the church. There is a tablet on the south wall of the chancel of the same church to William Cantrell. a son of Henry, who was Rector many years of St. Michael's in the bor- ough of Stamford, and in the county of Lincoln, and in the county of Rutland. There are also many interesting records of the Suffolk branch of the family. Ralph Cantrell, Gentleman, of Thorpe Hall, Hem- ingstone, county Suffolk, was Scribe to the Bishop (Lord of

Norwich, 1519-79), and his pedigree is given in the " Visitation of Suffolk/' 1612, and of Berkshire, 1664. Of his sons many records are found, one was William Cantrell, regarding whom we learn, from the ''Antiquities of the County Suffolk," Vol. 1 page 118: "Thomas, Duke of Norfolk, whom Queen Elizabeth beheaded, having in 1556 put his vast estates in trust to William Cantrell and others, the Queen allowed him to continue to act as Trustee until she sent the Earl of Arundel to the Tower, when she appointed William Cantrell to act for herself. (Thomas, Duke of " Norfolk, in Bury St. Edmund's, County Suffolk.) Another history speaks of him as follows: "Mr. William Cantrell, of Hemingstone, a gentleman of fortune and consequence in the reigns of King Henry Mil and Queen Elizabeth, who distinguished him with marks of royal favor and confidence. In the parish church of Hemingstone. St. Gregory's, there is an ancient mural monument to his memory, and the following epitaph:

" Man here thou mayst entombed see, A man of honest fame, xiv THE CANTRILL-CANTRELL GENEALOGY

This William Cantrell feoffee was With others put in trust, Regarded well for virtuous life, Wise, sober, true and just, Even of the whole revenue of That mighty prince of late, Late Thomas, Duke of Norfolk, hisrht, Some time of high estate."'

Thomas Cantrell, brother of William, was the father of Ralph Cantrell, of Hemingstone, who was knighted March 11, 1623.

The Coat-of-Arms

as to There is a great diversity of opinion among authorities the time that coat-of-arms became hereditary. The majority century, though a few give a still earlier date. give= the twelfth In 1482, Richard III incorporated the Heralds' College, or Col- lege of Arms. On the establishment of the Heralds' College period- cog- ical visitations of the different counties were directed to take nizance of the Arms, Pedigrees and Marriages of the Nobility and Gentry of England. In the Heralds' Visitations of the counties of Cheshire, Suffolk, Norfolk. Berkshire and Derbyshire, pedigrees are given of Chantrells, Cantrells and Cant rills as belonging to the gentry, and all bearing the same coat armor. The ancient Cantrell coat-of-arms was:

Argent, A Pelican in her piety, Sable. Crest A Tower, Argent.

The Pelican was one of the first emblems used in Heraldry; its simplicity would indicate that it is very ancient. One of the earliest works published on Heraldry says: "The Pelican was by Egyptians made the hieroglyphic, of maternal affection, for she, when her young ones had been bitten by serpents, that secretly invade their nest, launces her bosom and

with the purple balsom that streams from the opened sluice not only expells the infused venom, but likewise cements and cures the wounds inflicted by the noxious adversaries." Another old history gives the following: " Pelican. The Egyptian priests used the Pelican for a hieroglyphic to express the four duties of a father toward his children,

whereof the first is Generation; second is his office of Education; third of Training up, or Instruction of Learning; and the fourth and last, the Duty of Informing his children with the Example of his Virtuous and Honest Life." " Webster's International Dictionary " says: "Pelican in her Piety (in heraldry and symbolical art), a repre- sentation of a Pelican in the act of prodding her breast, in order to nourish her young with her blood, a practice fabulously attrib- uted to the bird, on account of which it was adopted as a symbol of the Redeemer and of charity."

The Family in Ireland

There seems to be a well-founded tradition in the Irish branch of the family that the first Cantrells in Ireland were French Hu- guenots, who fled from France at the time of the St. Bartholomew Massacre (1572). Probably the first of the name to go from England into Ireland was Godfrey Cantrell, who moved from Leicester with his family in 1655 to Queens county. His name appears from 1661 to 1669 among the names of persecuted Quakers in that county, and in the latter year the name of John Cantrell also appears in the same lists. That this family were Quakers is also confirmed by the purchase in 1677 from the Xew Jersey Quakers of a small parcel of land by Godfrey Canterell, who sold it in 16S2. apparently without ever having set foot on American soil, as the transactions are given as having taken place at Rosenalis, Queens county, Ireland, and there is no record of his ever having lived in America.

In America

The name first appears in America in 1608 at Jamestown, ^ a -> and since that time there have been eight, possibly more, distinct families of Cantrill, Cantrell and Cantrelle, who have come to this country from England, Ireland and France.

xvi THE CANTRILL-CANTRELL GENEALOGY

The first permanent settlement of English-speaking people on the American continent was made at Jamestown, Va., in April, 1607. The histories of all the older nations begin with a fable, or some mythological story, which shrouds their real birth in mystery, but the American Republic can trace its genesis to a definite place.

Captain John Smith was the leading man in this first settlement, and history records many daring adventures of this man, who was by nature so well fitted to be a leader of the band of courageous young men, who went from England to this new and unconquered

world. Here in the wilderness of an unexplored continent, already inhabited by another and a savage race, great deeds were performed and events transpired that were more thrilling and impressive than any ever told in poetry or prose. Every hardship

common to human life was met by the men who founded this first Colony and many lives were lost in the struggle; but before the settlements at either Plymouth, or New Amsterdam, were effected they had planted the seed from which has sprung not only the nation, but its form of government. Before 1620, when the second permanent settlement was made at Plymouth, the Virginia Colony had established a number of villages and trading posts; had built homes and churches; established courts and tried the accused by jury. They had cultivated the land and started a commercial career which was not confined to the Colony, as they were already exporting their produce to England. Above all, they had convened a legislative assembly, whose members were elected by popular suffrage and who passed laws governing the Colony. This was the beginning of free government in America. The government of the United States by a President, Senate and House of Representatives shows that the ideas put into the Great Charter of the Virginia Company have left their mark on the Constitution of our country and the laws of all our States show traces of the same ideas.

The spirit of adventure and love of travel shown by the first of the name to come to America has been shown by many others of the name since 160S. From 160S to 1639 the name appears in Virginia records and after that date is found in other and newer settlements during that century. There is a tradition in the family that the Cantrills went up the

Delaware from the cast shore of Virginia, but it has not been possible to verify this from the incomplete and fragmentary

HISTORY xvii records. About four thousand Virginians were among the first settlers of Maryland and others were scattered along the Dela- ware into Pennsylvania before William Penn arrived there.

There is documentary proof that the family were in Virginia, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Massachusetts before 1700; but, unfortunately, the relation, if any, that existed between them has not been established in the same way. Nor has it been possible to find the exact years in which they moved from settlement to settlement during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Before the Revolution, however, branches of the family had left Pennsylvania and settled in western Virginia and the Carolinas.

It is probable that those who went to the Carolinas migrated with the little bands of Baptists, as they had become identified with the Mother Baptist church, the Old Welsh Tract of New Castle county, Pennsylvania, and this church sent many branches out into Virginia and the Carolinas about this time. In western

Virginia at this time there were but two churches, i. e., the Church of England, which was the first established in the Colony, and the Presbyterian, which sprung into prominence when a large emigration of Scotch-Irish settled there about 1750; to the latter church this branch of the family went, and it is a significant fact that to this day descendants of the family in the Carolinas are almost all identified with the Baptist church, while those of the branch who settled in western Virginia became prominently connected with the Presbyterian. In England the family were almost all members of the Church of England, and as noted previously were rectors and vicars in that church. In America they became members of various religious organizations, being in many instances organizers and founders of churches in different localities of the Baptist, Presbyterian, Methodist, Christian and Episcopal denominations, and have furnished many church officers and ministers to them. To-day members of the family are found in almost every religious denomination.

It is hard to realize the dangers and difficulties that beset our ancestors in their migrations. from settlement to settlement during their early history, and the early history of this country, as there is nothing in the ease and luxury of modern travel to suggest even remotely the discomforts they had to endure. Before steamboats, or railroads, were known several generations of the name had found their way by waterways, or along buffalo, or Indian trails from tide water in Virginia to Pennsylvania; back to the moun-

xviii THE CANTRILL-OANTRELL GENEALOGY

tains of western Virginia and to the plantations of the Carolinns; west over the mountains into eastern Tennessee and the Blue Grass region of Kentucky and from there to the rolling land of Ohio and Indiana and the wide prairies of Illinois and Iowa. What courage and daring did both men and women possess to venture forth into the unknown land. They knew the country was full of wild animals and savage red men; that the very paths

they so often followed were made by them and that all sorts of danger would be encountered. We read of boats, crude and primitive, by which they traversed the waterways; of caravans, sometimes small, sometimes, however, containing as many as fifty Conestoga wagons, in which the older men, women and small children rode, and the household goods were carried, while the younger members of the families travelled on horseback. In some of these migrations the trails were so rough that pack horses alone could carry the people to their new homes in the wilderness.

Ever}r man carried a gun, or rifle, and in those days women also well knew how to use firearms, for when the men were off on hunting expeditions, their living largely depended on the game they shot, or were at work in the fields, the women and children were never free from the danger of a sudden raid from the In- dians.

Into the history of many states is woven the life history of many thousands of the name of Cantrill and to-day representatives of the family can be found in almost every state and territory. In the South they have been planters, in the West, farmers, and every- where merchants, teachers, ministers, physicians, lawyers, judges, bankers, city, county and state officials, but to the credit of the name let it be said, we have never found anywhere a single criminal. The Cantrills have always been patriots, as well as pioneers. In every great crisis from Colonial times down: in the Indian Wars; the War for American Independence; the War of 1S12; the Mexi- can War; the Black Hawk War; the Civil War and the Spanish War the muster rolls have been full of the name ever fighting for what they deemed right. A long Roll of Honor they make of soldiers and officers in our history. The most prominent characteristics in the family are honesty and courage. As a rule they are unassuming, conservative and quiet in their manner. Many of the men are described as tall, being over six feet in height, with Grecian nose, blue-grey eyes

HISTORY xix and light brown hair, and many are said to be strikingly handsome, or fine looking men.

Cantrills in America in the Seventeenth Century

WILLIAM CANTRILL, Gentleman, arrived at Jamestown, Va., April 20, 1608, by the ship Phenix. (The name is spelled both Cantrill and Cantrell in all the early Virginia histories.) Captain John Smith's "Historie of the Settlement of Virginia," tells us that the ship Phenix, commanded by Capt. Francis Nelson, left England in the fall of 1607; that Captain Nelson was "an honest and expert Mariner, but such was the leewardness of his Ship that he had to put in at the West Indies for repairs, wood and water," and did not reach Jamestown until the following Spring. A full list of the passengers of the Phenix is given in this book. The vessels used in those days bore no resemblance to the pala- tial ocean steamers of to-day; they were small, clumsy and slow and there is little wonder that the people who embarked on them were afraid to venture straight across the great unknown sea. The route, via the Canary Islands and the West Indies, which they then took, made the distance almost twice as long and with good luck the passage was made in four months. With a series of mishaps, the Phenix took six months for the trip from England with the first supplies and people sent to Capt. John Smith, to aid him in the exploration and settlement of Virginia. References are made to the "writings of William Cantrill," and early histories tell us that he was one of the fourteen, who on June 2, 1608, accompanied Capt. John Smith on his "discoverie of Chesapeake Bay." "Cantrill's Point" was named for the dis- coverer and was "betwixt the Patawomuk and Pamuke," now the Fotomac and Rappahannock rivers. Henning's " Statutes, or the Laws of Virginia" records the sub- scription of William Cantrill to the Second Virginia Charter (the t.reat Charter), dated May 23, 1609. From "Genesis of the United States," by Alexander Brown:

"William Cantrel (Gentleman), 2, Sub. Pd. £12.-10/ Ex-

planation the figures 1, 2, 3, immediately after the name indicate that the person was an Incorporator of the First, Second and Third

Virginia Charter. Sub. subscribed, and is followed by the amount

and whenever it was paid, Pd. paid."

xx THE CANTRILL-CANTRELL GENEALOGY

In "The names of the Adventurers of Virginia alphabetically set down according to a printed Booke, Set out by the Treasurer and Council in the present yeare, 1620," the name of William Cantrill, Gentleman, appears. In MSS of Court Proceedings in Virginia, which are the records of the London Company of Virginia, from April 28, 1619, to Jan- uary 27, 1624, we note: "At a Quarter Court held for Virginia in

the afternoon of July 3, 1622, among those present Mr. Cantrill." Bishop Mead speaks of William Cantrill in connection with Rev.

Mr. Robert Hunt, first minister to Virginia, and it has been suggested by one writer that it is probable that "William Cantrill was present at the baptism and marriage of Pocahontas." The Arms William Cantrill brought with him from England to America was: "Argent, A Pelican in her Piety, Sable," and a North Carolina Cantrell of to-day claims to have seen this coat-of-arms carved in the stock of an ancient gun there. It is impossible to secure full information and data regarding the family in Virginia at this period, owing to the destruction of records during the various wars, but traditions in the family are more or less corroborated by the history of the country. HENRY CANTRELL, according to "Robinson's MSS" administered the oath to men of experience and dignity, who were appointed as Inspectors of the tobacco crops and was a Justice in Charles City county, Va., in 1639.

Owing to the incomplete Virginia records, it has been impossible to find anything concerning the families or history of either Wil- liam or Henry Cantrill, or whether either left descendants. A thorough search of all lists of emigrants to the American Colonies in the seventeenth century, both in England and America, has failed to reveal more than two arrivals in that century in

America, i. e., William Cantrill, ship Phenrx, at Jamestown, Va., 160S, and John Chantrell, ship Speedwell, at Boston, Mass., 1666. JOHN CHANTRELL arrived from England on ship Speedwell, at Boston, in 1666. His wife's name was Mary. This family were living in Boston as late as 1697 and after that there is no trace of them.

Their chil'fren were: John, b. Feb. 1672. Marj-, b. 1073; m. Thomas Marshall, June IS, 1697. Joseph, m. Annie Gardner, Dec. 13, 1697. Emma, b. Apr. 15, 1678. Dean, b. Nov. 1, 16S6.

HISTORY xxi

JOHN CANTRELL, living in St. John's parish, Island of Ja- maica, 1670, owned twenty-one ncre^ of land there, according to State Papers, Colonial Series, America and West Indies. WILLIAM CANTRILL appears in a list of soldiers in "King Philip's War," by George M. Dodge, as a member of the crew of the ship Swanne, August 20, 1675. Further research showed that the ship Swanne was used for the transportation of merchandise between the Massachusetts and Virginia Colonies, and was pressed into service during the war. ANN CANTERILL, in a list of two hundred who went from Virginia to Somerset county, Md., October, 1675. RICHARD CANTRILL, in Philadelphia, Pa., 16S9, whose descendants are given fully in this work. JOSEPH CANTRILL. a nephew of Richard Cantrill, was drowned in the Schuykill river May 10, 16S9. In a petition made to Governor Blackwell by Richard Cantrill for letters of administration to the small estate of Joseph Cantrill, it is set forth that

Richard Cantrill is an uncle and nearest of kin in the province to Joseph, but that Joseph Cantrill has older and younger brothers in Derbyshire, England.

THE CANTRILL-CANTRELL GENEALOGY

RICHARD CANTRILL

1. RICHARD CANTRILL was a resident of Philadelphia, Pa., prior to 16S9. In July, 1G89, he was appointed administrator of the estate of Joseph Cantrill, an unmarried nephew, who was drowned in the Schuylkill river May 10, 16S9. It has been impossible to find records to prove the parentage, or birthplace, of Richard Cantrill, but there is no doubt that he came from the Derbyshire branch of the English family. His name does not appear in any list of emigrants and he may have been a descendant of William, or Henry Cantrell, of Virgnia. Fisher says, in his "Making of Pennsylvania," that "quite a number of Virginians migrated from that Colony to the Banks of the Dela- ware before the settlement of Philadelphia by Penn, in 1678, under the rule of the Duke of York." From " Pennsylvania Archives," Vol. XIX: " At a meeting of the Commissioners, 6th of July, 1692. Present

Captain William Markham, Robert Turner, John Goodson, . . . Richard Cantrill requesting a warrant for a lot of 30 ft. upon Third Street, near the Burying Ground, was granted." From Original Records, Deed Book D, 53, page 50: "Richard Cantrill to Thomas Hall, Sold 30 ft. x 190 ft. May 13, 1093, Third and Market Streets." In Patent Book A, Vol. II, page 344, there is a lease for twenty- one years (May 5, 1702) made by Edward Shippen, Griffith Owen and James Logan, as Proprietary and Governor in Chief of

Pennsylvania and Territories thereunto belonging ... of a . . .

4 THE CAXTRILL-CAXTRELL GENEALOGY

"Certain tract of land between Fifth and Sixth streets containing three acres and sixty perches" (here follows a full description

by metes and bounds) "to Richard Cantrill, Brickmaker, with all woods and underwood and trees, ways, waters, water courses, •liberties, profits, commodities, advantages and opportunities whatsoever." The rental was forty shillings per year, "current silver money of the Province." . . . "Said Richard Cantrill shall build, erect and set up a substantial brick house one story and a half in height and in breadth eighteen feet and in length thirty- six feet; the first story of one brick and a half and the second story of one brick, and further that said Richard Cantrill shall make an orchard upon some part of the hereby granted land, with at least eighty good bearing apple trees planted thereon, and shall also well and sufficiently fence and enclose the said demised land." In " Pennsylvania Archives " we find: "Cantrill, Old Rights: Richard Cantrill, city lot 3 acres, 10 day, 10 month, 1701. Rich, return 3 acres, 3 month 1702." Later the Archives record a "Caveat against surveying of land adjoining Richard Cantrill's estate, issuing to the heirs, or executors of the said Richard Cantrill, or any under him, May 31, 1753." No record could be found of the disposition of the estate of Richard Cantrill, either by his heirs or executors, but he evidently died prior to May 31, 1753.

There is a tradition common in the family that the first Cantrill in Philadelphia had a brick yard and built the first brick house in that city. Records show that "the first brick house built in Philadelphia was owned by Robert Turner in 16S4-5," and in the same year Richard Cantrill's brother-in-law, Daniel Pegge, also built a brick residence on "Pegge's Run." It is possible that Richard Cantrill had the contract for erecting both of these houses, which would easily account for the tradition in the family. In about 1693 Richard Cantrill married Dorothy Jones, daughter of Ellis and Jane Jones, who came to America from either Flint, or Denbigh, Wales, in the ship Submission, Sept., 16S2. From the Log of the Submission: "Ellis Jones, age -15, Jane Jones, age 40, Barbara Jones, age 13, Mary Jones, age 12, Dorothy Jones, age 10, Isaac Jones, age 4 mos." " The Pennsylvania Historical Magazine," in a list of names of "Important Colonists, who came in the Submission," mentions Ellis Jones. He was a resident of Bucks county, 16S4, but did

RICHARD CANTRILL 5 not remain there long, and in the Welsh Tract Purchases his name appears as having purchased one hundred acres in Nantonell parish, Radnor. Barbara Jones married Daniel Pegge, of " Pegge's Run;" Mary Jones married her cousin Isaac Jones, and Dorothy

Jones married Richard Cant rill. Ellis Jones and his family were Quakers and as Richard Can- trill belonged to the Church of England, Richard and Dorothy were married, to use a Quaker term, " Out of Meeting." Dorothy Jones Cantrill seems to have been a young lady of considerable spirit and independence of character. She not only married the man of her choice, irrespective of her religious training, but later evidence is found of her love of gayety and society in an old history of Philadelphia, where she figured at a masquer- ade ball, much to the horror of her more quiet Quaker friends. She seems to have inherited her love of society from her mother, for the name of Jane Jones appears as a witness to the marriage of a great many Quakers of her day, and the Quaker weddings were probably the principal events affording those of that sect an expression to their social instinct. The will of Jane Jones, relict of Ellis Jones, executed at Phila- delphia, Aug. 3, 1730, and recorded at Philadelphia. Dec. 27, 1732, mentions her grandchildren: " Zebulon Cantril, Joseph Cantril, and Dorothy Cantril," to each of whom she bequeaths: "One

English shilling, or the value of it in coyn current."

Children of Richard and Dorothy Cantrill: 2. i. Mary. The Records of the Race Street Meetinghouse contain the following under "Burials' of those not Friends: Mary, 1-6, 1695, parents Richard and Dorothy Cantrill." 3. * ii. Joseph. 4. *hi. Zebulon. 5. iv. Dorothv, about whom we have no record.

2 1 3. JOSEPH CANTRILL (Richard ) was born about 1695 in Philadelphia, Pa., and spent his early boyhood in that city.

Married Catharina . They were living in New Castle county, Pa., on or near the site of the present city of Wilmington, Del., and were attendants at Holy Trinity (Old Swedes) Church before 1720. It is probable that Catharina was a daughter of one of the Old Swedes, first settlers of this section, but we could not verify this. Their first three children were baptized at the old historic church still used and known as Old Swedes, which is one of the oldest and quaintest churches in this country. Christina parish was mostly situated on both sides of Christina creek, partly on both sides of Brandywine creek in New Castle county, and in the Hundreds of New Castle, Christina and Brandy- wine. It stretched two Swedish miles in length and one in breadth. The most remote families of the parish were not more than six and a half English miles distant from the church. The city of

"Wilmington is built on the Swedish " church land" and the charter for the town was granted in 1735. At the time Joseph Cantrill went there it was known as Christina. Many of the earliest records of this locality have been lost, or destroyed, and at best are very incomplete. There is evidence, however, from the scattered records in New Castle county to-day, that descendants of Richard Cantrill lived there from before 1720 until 1797, though the majority moved south during this period.

Children:

8 THE CANTRILL-CANTRELL GENEALOGY

2 l 7. JOHN CANTRELL3 (Joseph, Richard ) was born in New Castle .county, Pa. (now Delaware), Oct., 1724, and baptized in Holy Trinity (Old Swedes) church Mar. 25, 1726. He was married twice. His first wife was Brittian, by whom he had seventeen sons; his second wife was Jane , by whom he had four sons and two daughters. We have heard from several that there were a number of twins in this large family. He died in 1S03 and his sons Abraham, Stephen and Moses administered upon his estate. There are many traditions in the family regarding John Cantrell and his family and their moving to the Carolinas, but the exact date of his leaving New Castle county is not known. It is known, however, that he was living in Rockingham county, or what is now that county, North Carolina, before the Revolutionary War, and shortly after the war he moved to Ninety Six District, now Spartanburg county, S. C, where he owned over eight hundred acres of land on Buck creek, waters of Pacolet river. John Cantrell and his family were devoted and active workers in the Buck creek Baptist church and some of his descendants still attend this old church. There is no reliable authority for a correct tabulation for any but the first three of the children of John Cantrell and we have endeavored to make the list correct from records, rather than from lists furnished from memory bv his descendants.

twice, but we have been unable to learn the names of his wives. It is not unreasonable to suppose, however, that his second wife was

a Watson. It has also been impossible to get a complete list of his

children, but we secured the lines of four of his sons: the first three named were brothers and the fourth a half-brother. Abraham Cantrell went with his parents to North Carolina and served in the Revolutionary War from the Salisbury district. His name appears on the pay rolls of North Carolina soldiers in the auditor's office at Raleigh. Tradition says that he was a captain and this is probably true, as he received more pay than others on the list. After the Revolution he moved with his family to Spartanburg

county, S. C. The first record of him in that county is in the First

United States Census (1790), where he is given as a head of a family, having two sons over sixteen years of age, two sons under sixteen and a daughter. In 1792 he purchased 192 acres of land on Buck creek. In 1803 he was one of the administrators upon the estate of his father. He died in South Carolina.

Children:

33. * i. Abraham. 34. * ii. Richard. 35. *iii. John. 36. *iv. Watson.

33. ABRAHAM CANTRELL 5 (Abraham, 4 John,3 Joseph, 2 l Richard ) was probably the eldest son of Abraham and one of the sons "Over sixteen years of age" mentioned in the First Census,

1790. He married Sarah Durham in Spartanburg county, S. C. In 1S13 he seems to have disposed of all his property in that state and moved to Tennessee, as he received a grant of land in 1814, which is recorded at Sparta, White county, Tenn. In the ten years following the War of 1S12 a large number of Cantrells moved from the Carolinas to Tennessee, Georgia and Alabama. In 1S24 he received a grant of land on Sink creek, Warren county, which is recorded at McMinnville, Tenn.

"Through the kindness of my father, Mr. T. A. Cantrell, I am apprised of the meditated convention of all the members of the

and, if this virtue of compassion has the property of uniting those of every rank and station, how much more so should ties of blood bind the hearts of those, whom Divine Providence has called to one and the same family, with the golden chain of love and loyalty. No words can better express this than those that support our escutcheon: 'Proprio Vos Sanguine Pasco.' May God, in His sweet mercy, make us as loyal to Him as to our own. He should come first, and, when this is so, it but intensifies our affection for

those whom He has given us. As a proof of this, I write this little note of felicitation to those who will be assembled so near my cloistered home. By the vows of my profession, I am prevented

from being personally present at the gathering, which, I trust, will prove all that it is desired to be.

"Extend to all my best love and well wishes, for I consider myself still a member of that family, whose spiritual and temporal interests are ever dear to my heart, and whose well being I daily solicit at the Altar of the Most High. Also, a most cordial recep- tion awaits each and every member visiting our Monastery on

Park Avenue, which is now my home, and, since it is impossible

for us all to be together in this world, may it please our Divine Lord to grant us a glorious reunion in a blissful eternity. May God bless you! "In the Sacred Heart of Jesus, "Yours most sincerely, "Sister Mary Cecilia Cantrell, of the "Visitation Blessed Virgin Mary. "God be praised!"

4 3 2 J 14. JACOB CANTRILL (John, Joseph, Richard ) was born in New Castle county, Pa. (now Delaware). Went with his parents to North Carolina, where he married Mary and died in Orange county in 1790.

Orange county was created in 1751; from it was taken Guilford county in 1770, and Caswell county in 1777, while Rockingham county was taken from Guilford in 17S5. If the reader will bear these dates in mind, the records from the various counties in North Carolina of the family will be better understood. Jacob Cantrill served in the War for American Independence from the Hillsboro district, and his name is on the pay roll at Raleigh. His will was made in 1782, and probated in Orange county, N. C, in 1790. In this year Man', widow of Jacob Cantrill, was taxed in Orange county, on 442 acres of land and two slaves. In 1798 she moved, with her family, to Green county, Kentucky, where she died.

WILL OF JACOB CANTRILL

"In the name of God; Amen, I Jacob Cantrill, of the County of Orange and Province of North Carolina, being in a low state of health, but of perfect sense and memory, thanks be to Almighty God for the same, but calling to mind the mortality of my body and knowing that it is appointed for all men once to die, do make and ordain this my last Will and Testament, that is to say principally and first of all I give and recommend my soul into the hands of Almighty God that gave it, and my body I recommend to the earth, to be buried in a decent Christian burial, at the discretion of my Executors, nothing doubting but at the general ... I shall receive the same again by the mighty power of God.

If they refuse to give such bond ancj, security, my desire is that, at my widow's intermarriage, that that part of my estate which is lent her, be taken out of her hands and divided equally between my three sons before named.

She was born Sept. 19, 1774. John Murray was born in Pennsylvania and served in the War for American Inde- pendence from North Carolina, where his father and Uncle Rob- ert Murray had moved from Pennsylvania with their families,

42 THE CANTRILL-CANTRELL GENEALOGY previous to the Revolution. Robert Murray moved to New York

City with his family later and it is from this family that the name is perpetuated in that city by Murray street, and Murray Hill. The Murray family were descended from a junior branch of the Philiphaugh (Selkirkshire) and Atholl family, of Perthshire, Scotland. Thomas Cantrill, with his wife, mother and a number of others of the family, moved from North Carolina in 1798 to Green county, Ky. In 1828 he and his family followed his eldest son, William, to Sangamon county, 111., where he settled on a farm three and a half miles east of Springfield, which is in possession of one of his grandsons and family to-day. His wife died Oct. 1, 1S36, and two days later, Oct. 3, 1S3G, he died; both are buried in the family plot on the farm where they spent the last years of their lives. He was a man of determined character: firm, reliable and stead- fast in all his dealings and never wavered from his ideas of right. He was an excellent example of the pioneer of his day, moving through the wilderness with his family from North Carolina to Kentucky; thence to Illinois, and literally hewing new homes in a new country.

5 4 3 543. WILLIAM CANTRILL 6 (Thomas, Jacob, John, Jo- 2 1 county, Ky. seph, Richard ) was born Jan, 17, 1800, in Green In 1S25 he went with his sister, Anna Black, and other members of the family, to Sangamon county, 111., and lived with this sister until Feb. 14, 1S2S, when he married Elizabeth Hall. Sangamon county was mostly settled by Kentuckians and North Carolinians and had only been a county four years when

William Cantrill rode to it from his old home in Kentucky, carrying with him a long, single barrelled Kentucky rifle, that is now in the possession of the compiler of this book. The fame of the beautiful rolling prairies of that section of Illinois drew many new settlers, and in the same year he went there, Elizabeth Hall, with her uncle and aunt, Andrew and Eleanor Goodan Jones, also went

44 THE CANTRILL-CANTRELL GENEALOGY from Kentucky and settled four and a half miles from Springfield, and only a mile from the farm that was destined to become the home of Cantrills for several generations. Elizabeth Hall was born Dec. S, 1S09, in that part of Mont- gomery county, Ky., that afterward became Bath county. She was a daughter of David and Susan Goodan Hall. David Hall was accidently drowned in the Licking river. He was a son of Thomas Hall and Nancy Chinn, nee Bartlett, his wife, of Staunton, Va. Thomas Hall was a lawyer of Augusta county, Va., and went to Boone county, Ky., before the Revolutionary War and was residing there in 1810. The AVar Records at Washington, D. C, show that: "Thomas Hall enlisted March 1779 at Boonesboro, Kentucky, in Colonel Daniel Boone's Regiment, Captain John Holder's Company, and was engaged in several skirmishes with the Indians." He received a pension in Montgomery county, Ky., in 1833. Thomas Hall was a son of Edward and Eleanor Stuart Hall, of Staunton, Va.. and grandson of Isaac Hall, who married Sarah Allison in Pennsylvania, and went to Augusta county, Va., in 1736, with the Scotch-Irish emigrants, who went there from Lancaster county, Pa. Eleanor Stuart, wife of Edward Hall, was a daughter of Archibald Stuart, and Janet Brown, his wife. The Stuart family are of Scotch origin. During the reign of James I they removed to Ireland, where Archibald and Janet were married, and they emigrated to Pennsylvania in 1727 and to Augusta county, Va., in 1736. They were a family of wealth and distinction. On the maternal side, Elizabeth Hall Cantrill was a granddaughter of Daniel and Eleanor Goodan. The Goodans emigrated from England to Pennsylvania in 17li0 and to Kentucky in the latter part of that century. Isaac Hall, a half-brother of Elizabeth, was killed in his own door yard during the Civil War by Union soldiers. He had three sons in the Confederate Army. Elizabeth Hall Cantrill was one of less than a dozen people who organized the first Christian church at Decatur, 111., in 1834, and was a consistent and active member until her death. Aug. 4, 1S6S. In sickness and trouble her neighbors and friends turned to her instinctively for help and her home was one of the most hospitable, ready alike to receive friend and stranger, in Decatur. William Cantrill moved with his family from Springfield, to

Decatur. 111., in 1S33, taking with him the first stock of general merchandise ever taken to Decatur. The store he opened with this stock stood on the southeast corner of East Main street, on what

DESCENDANTS OF JOSEPH 2 CANTRILL 45 was known for many years as the "Old Square," but is now called "Lincoln Square." In this building in 1835-36 he officiated as postmaster, stowing the little wafer sealed missives away in a small box in a corner of the store, though sometimes he was known to carry the United States mail in his hat, as the population of the village at this time was little over one hundred adults, and mail was a luxury that the receiver and not the sender paid for in those days. He was a member of the State Legislature, and being one of the few men there who was "handy with his pen," he served several terms as county treasurer. He was a man of great influence in central Illinois; was an uncompromising Democrat all his life, and for many years wielded an influence in politics in his own and adjacent counties that defied opposition. He was Second Lieu- tenant in Capt. Levi Goodan's Company, Black Hawk War, 1832. This was not attached to any regiment, but was part of General Whitesides' Brigade of mounted volunteers. He died at his home in Decatur, 111., Nov. 26, 1881, and the local papers, after giving many of the foregoing facts of his life, summed up his characteristics in these words: "His word was as good as his bond." A street in the now city of Decatur is named for him.

church at Springfield, Ohio, and a son of Robert and Rebecca Smith Christie. Robert Christie was a major in the Vermont State Militia and a volunteer in the War of 1M2; he was a Mason of high standing, being a Master of the Grand Lodge of Ohio; was a son of Jesse and Mary Gregg Christie. Jesse Christie was a lieutenant in Colonel Moore's New Hampshire regiment during the Revolution; was a deacon in the Congregational church at New Londonderry, X. II., and was always known by that title. The Christies were in New Hampshire in 1717 and are of Scotch- Irish descent. In ISIS Deacon Jesse, Major Robert and James Christie (the latter being a young man about twenty years of age), went overland from Vermont, where they had lived a short time, after leaving New Hampshire, to Springfield, Ohio, and settled in that country when the Indians were the principal inhabitants. From Pittsburg these early settlers travelled in crude flat boats to Cincinnati, and many a shot was exchanged with Indians along the banks of the Ohio river. Five generations of Christies have lived and died at Springfield. James and Laura Beardsley Christie; Jesse (brother of James) and Martha Lowry Christie, and Mary (sister of James and Jesse), who married Louis Bancroft, were all married at Springfield, Ohio, and all lived to celebrate their golden weddings in that place. On the maternal side, Harlan Page Christie has the following ancestry: his mother, Laura Beardsley, was a daughter of Elijah and Sarah Hubbell Beardsley, of Fairfield, Conn. Elijah Beards- ley enlisted at the age of seventeen in the 7th Connecticut Regi- ment, 1777, and served three years; three of his sons were in the

War of 1812. He was a son of Phineas and Ruth Fairchil 1 Beardsley. Phineas Beardsley was a captain of the company, in which his son was a private, and was a son of Obadiah Beards- ley, a very prominent man in Colonial days, and his wife, Mercy

Jackson. Obadiah was a son of John and Mary Booth Beardslej . John was a son of Samuel and Abigail Beardsley.

Jan. 5, 1869, who was a granddaughter of Rev. Barton W. Stone, one of the most gifted and noted ministers of the Christian church. A corre- spondent, who knew him well, writes: "He was a man of more than usual culture; a fine scholar, classical in his learning and forcible in argument. Alexander Campbell, who was his compeer, told me after Elder Stone's death that he (Stone) was the purest,' ablest man he had ever met. his own father, Thomas Campbell excepted. As a writer he was clear and pointed and his work on the Atonement is a standard. For the age in which he lived he was a leader in religious and literary thought.*' Jennie Moore Cantrill died Jan. 4. 1.S7S, leaving one son. and James Edwards Cantrill married (2) Mary Cecil, daughter of James Granville and Sarah A. Buster Cecil. Oct. 13, 1881. The Cecils were descendants of Samuel Cecil, who emigrated from England to Maryland, and for whom Cecil county, in that state, is named. The family were very prominent in the early history of Maryland. There is a tradition in the family that "the

DESCENDANTS OF JOSEPH 2 CANTRILL 57

Cecils were descended from the first Lord Burleigh," whose capacity for government was at once recognized by Queen Elizabeth, and who was appointed by her as Chief Secretary of State. To quote from an old history: " A life of Cecil from this time until his death, would be a forty years' history of England, when England was greatest, seeing that he was alike the originator and director of that policy, which made Elizabeth's reign memorable above that of any other English sovereign."

• Mary Cecil Cantrill was born in Monticello, Wayne county, Ky. Her early girlhood was spent in Boyle county, near Danville, where she was partly educated, but the greater part of her school life was spent at Daughter's College, Harrodsburg, Ky.

She nominated Mrs. Potter Palmer for President of the Board of Lady Managers. She was appointed to represent Kentucky at the Atlanta Exposition in

1895 and at the Nashville Exposition in 1898. She is a member of the Daughters of the Confederacy and a very prominent and active worker in that organization. James Edwards Cantrill graduated from Georgetown College and is an eminent lawyer and jurist, well known all over the country, and recognized as one of the most successful members of the bar in the south.

He was executor of the will of his brother, Jacob Cantrill, in 1790, and his own will was probated at Hillsboro, May, 1804. It is probable that his wife died before he did, as her name is not mentioned in the will.

Was wounded at the Battle of Shiloh and, afterward, not being able to serve actively on the field, served as commissary. Judge Robert Cantrell and his wife celebrated their Golden Wedding, Dec. 23, 1890, upon which memorable occasion their eight living children, with all their families, were present. The following excerpts are from a local paper of Lebanon, Tenn., where Judge Cantrell died Feb. 9, 1903. ". . . . Commencing life a poor boy, he worked, by strict attention to his professional duties to the topmost round in the legal profession in Tennessee. He was twice honored by the people of the Judicial circuit and in his judicial career was proverbial for tempering justice with mercy. ... In private life no object of charity ever appealed to him in vain. ' His domestic life was one continued ray of sunshine. ... He was admitted to the Bar in 1849, and came to Lebanon in 1866. remaining in our midst from that time until his death. In the fullest sense of the phrase he was a self-made man. In early life he had almost none of the advantages now so accessible to a young man of ambition. . . . He acquired a rudimentary knowledge of the law under the most adverse circumstances. . . . Judge Cantrell was not discouraged by the difficulties then common to young men choosing the law as a profession, but with courageous tenacity he clung to his purpose and to his profession to the day of his death. To such a degree was this true, that it became the subject of common re- mark among his friends and gentlemen of the profession. Such tenacity and fixedness of purpose, which characterized his whole life, was followed by most natural results. He became a successful practitioner, ranked as one of the best lawyers of the state and for sixteen years served with distinction upon the bench. He represented De Kalb county in the Legislature. ... As a citizen he was generous, helpful, public spirited and always found upon the moral side of every question. He demonstrated, as others have before in this community, that a lawyer may also be an exemp- lary Christian. ... He was a member of the Methodist church."

His will was a peculiar

one: in it he stipulated bequests to each and all of his nephews and nieces, the remainder of his estate to be divided among his "poor and deserving kin." The question arose who were the "poor and deserving kin," and the matter was referred to the court. The decision was that after paying to the heirs named in the will the portions they were to receive, that the remainder should be equally divided between the "nearest of his kin." The estate proved to

94 THE CANTRILL-CANTRELL GENEALOGY

The maternal grandfather of Susan Littlejohn Cantrell was John Nuckols, who met a tragic death at the hands of the Tories, during the Revolutionary War. He was serving in Upper Carolina, and the soldiers in that section could often go home and remain for a few days: when necessity arose they would rally at some appointed place and enter the field again. It was upon one of these visits home that John Nuckols, with his son John, a mere lad, went to the mill on Broad river, some eighteen miles away.

In those days it is said that millers provided a room in the mill for customers who were detained over night, and the distance being so great John Nuckols and his son had to remain at the mill. Tradition says that on his way to the mill a man who learned he was to remain there over night, mustered a small crowd of Tories in the neighborhood, went to the mill, awoke Mr. Nuckols and prepared to kill him. He asked for permission to pray, which was granted. He prayed aloud and after he had uttered a few sentences, which were beautiful and touching, one of the men said: " If he continues to pray like that, we will not be able to kill

him;" so he shot him while he was praying. He is buried at Whig Hill, with the inscription on his tombstone: "John Nuckols. Killed by the Tories." Isaac Hazel Cantrell served in the Confederate Army during the Civil War. Was for many years actively engaged in business at Spartanburg, but has now retired and lives at Hendersonville, N. C.

DESCENDANTS OF JOSEPH 2 CANTRILL 97 our three young Cantrell soldiers entered. We regret our inability to find exact record of their fearless service, but the very nature of it made this almost impossible. There is the following well- known tradition extant in many branches of the family regarding them Aaron, Simon and Peter Cantrell were taken prisoners while on scout duty and condemned to be shot. They were bound by cords and led to a lonely spot. Some of the traditions relate that both Aaron and Peter escaped, and as there were several Aaron and Peter Cantrells of that age in South Carolina, this may be true, but we could not verify this. Others say that only Peter escaped: that in running away, he fell over a tree and severed the cords that bound him, which enabled him to run the faster and gain General Marion's camp, some two miles away, in safety. Simon Cantrell was bound to a stake. He asked for time to pray; but while praying his captors, said to be Colonel Tarleton's men, fairly riddled his body with bullets.

4 3 2 1 23. THOMAS CANTRELL (John, Joseph, Richard ) was born Jan. 23, 1761. About 17S0 he married Elizabeth Norris, daughter of Thomas Norris, who served in the Revolutionary War from Pennsylvania. She was born Mar. 10, 1765. After their marriage they first settled in Greenville district, S. C, but later moved to Tennessee. It has been said that he was the first of the name to migrate to that state. He settled on Sink creek, De Kalb county, where he operated an iron forge, which is still called the " Old Forge," and where one of his descendants now lives. The War Records, at Washington, D. C, show that "Thomas Cantrell served as a member, rank and company not stated, of Lieutenant Colonel Lytle's command, Caswell county, North Carolina, Revolutionary War." His name has been found only on a list, not dated, of men "enrolled for Captain Robert Moore, from Caswell county.

There is a tradition, which comes from William Magness Can- trell, that: ''Thomas Cantrell, in company with Mr. Adcock, who was an uncle of his grandmother, were captured at the battle of the Cowpens, S. C, and placed on a British ship to be sent to England. After getting some four miles from land, they escaped by jumping overboard and swimming to shore, having to escape not only the dangers of the sea, but also the fire of the British." He was a deacon in the Baptist church. He and his wife are

buried in the old cemetery at Grady, Tenn. This town was first known as Cantrell's Cross Roads; later the name was changed to Williamsburg, and to-day is known as Grady.

In 1820 he moved with his family to McMinn county, Tenn.. where he purchased a large tract of land in the Hiwassee district, on the Conesauga. One of his descendants writes: "?

It was raining; there was no house to receive them and a temporary shelter was hastily erected Beneath that, wrapped in quilts, with her babe in her arms, all through that dark, rainy night, sat Mary Cantrell Cooke weeping, so dreary and lonely seemed the prospect Nevertheless she was a woman of strong mind and great capa- bilities. Her husband was an upright and enterprising citizen but she was the potent factor in the training of her children- one of their sons became a noted lawyer and judge; another a .baptist minister; another an excellent physician, and still ai ne f the ,° most influential citizens'in the section in whichL- ul'he ? lived She was founder and promoter of the Conesauga baptist church.

2 l Joseph, Richard ) was born May 17, 1S3G. Married Attaline Cooke, daughter of George W. and Sarah Cooke, and granddaughter of William Henry and Mary Cantrell Cooke, Dec. 1, 1S64. His wife lived only two and a half years after their marriage, and although he was yet a young man, he never married again. As she grew older, the tastes, habits and knowledge of his daughter made her a congenial companion. He was converted and joined Zion Hill Baptist church in Mc- Minn county, Tenn., at the age of fourteen years. At his death, Oct. 17, 1S99, he had been clerk of Conesauga Baptist church for twenty-five years. He was a physician and when he died many were heard to say that: " He was the best man in the world." He was even-tempered, modest and retiring, but was withal a man of firm convictions. A nephew in writing of him, said that he "was a model of simple, earnest Christian manhood, whose memory I revere."

There are records in Buncombe county and Henderson county, N. C, of other Cantrells, whom we have been unable to place.

It is probable that Reuben Cantrell and Jacob Cantrell, sons of Reuben Cantrell, Sr.. married and had sons, but we were unable to verify this. Elias Cantrell, whose land adjoined Jacob Cantrell's on Rocky Spur, Walnut Mountain, was Deputy Sheriff in Hendersonville, and a man of high standing and excellent reputation. We have

DESCENDANTS OF JOSEPH 2 CANTRILL 115 been informed that he was not a brother of Jacob Cantrell, but it is not improbable that he was a son of Jacob Cantrell. Gelford Cantrell had a state grant of land made to him Apr. 9, 182S, but does not appear to be of this branch of the family, although living in Buncombe county. The following were probably of this branch: John Cantrell, who married Sarah E. Sumner, Sept. 30, I860. B. R. Cantrell, who married Ava H. Beck, at Sandy Bush, N. C. Alfred Cantrell, whose name appears in deeds in Buncombe county.

4 3 2 1 25. EDWARD CANTRELL (John, Joseph, Richard ). Married in Rockingham county, N. C, and in the census of 1790 is given as a head of a family, with four sons under sixteen years of age. Children:

1273. i. 1274. ii. 1275. iii. 1276. iv.

Marriages were not recorded in Rockingham county, N. C, until about 1S00, and as we could not find the wills of Charles, Joshua or Edward Cantrell, who all lived and married in that county, nor any of the descendants who could enlighten us, we cannot give the names of the wives, or children, of these three sons of John Cantrell. It is probable that the following are descendants, however, as their marriages were recorded at Wentworth, Rock- ingham county. Robert Cantrel to Nancy Shreves, Jan. 13, 1S08. William Carroll to Sarah Cantrel, Mar. 30, 1819. Thompson Cantrel to Delpha Burnett. June 11, 1S35. James Cantrel to Ruth Sanders, Jan. 16, 1800. Andrew Cantrel to Missouri King, Jan. 9, 1861.

4 3 2 1 26. BENJAMIN CANTRELL (John, Joseph. Richard ) was born in Rockingham county, N. C, probably about 1768, and was a small boy when his parents moved to Spartanburg county. S. C. At the time of the fighting in Ninety Six district, during the Revolution, he was a lad of about twelve years of age;

it is said that while he was ploughing in the fields, that by lying with his ear to the ground he could distinctly hear the roar of the cannon. He appears in the census of 1790 as "Head of a family"

Spartanburg county, S. C, where he married Elizabeth . He owned a plantation on Buck creek and the family were members of the Buck creek Baptist church. Surrounding this old church is a graveyard still in use, which has been used since 1775. The first arrangement was very primitive: there were no plots, but burials were made in rows, and the rows named for the families using them. In the Cantrell row are many old tomb- stones so worn with age that it is difficult to decipher them; but in it were placed James Cantrell, Elizabeth, his wife, and other members of their family. He served with distinction in the War of 1S12. It has been impossible to get a complete list of his children, but he had a son

She was a daughter of Maj. John Blakemore, of the famous " Donelson Expedition" and was born in North Carolina, Mar. 8, 1765, and died Aug. 2, 1S49. He probably went to North Carolina at the time of the large exodus south of the Cantrell family, as he was in the service of the Continental Commissioners of that state as Captain of the Guard, during the Revolutionary War. For the faithful discharge of his duties he was awarded a grant of land, 6-40 acres on Stewart's creek, Davidson county, Tenn. The deed is recorded at Nashville.

128 THE CANTRILL-CANTRELL GENEALOGY

burning of the steamer Brandy wine, on the Mississippi river, below Memphis, in 1S30. Clara Walker Cantrell died Apr. 2, 1891, at Nashville. One of her sons writes of her:

"She was the personification of unselfishness. A member of the Presbyterian church, her life was that of a true Christian woman: Christian in the full and liberal sense, not erratic and narrow, but practical and broad, doing as she would be done by and always striving to impress this Golden Rule upon those about her." George Michael Deaderick Cantrell was an official in the Union Bank of Tennessee; Planter's Bank of Tennessee and Fourth National Bank of Nashville for many years. In the latter years of his life he collected a great deal of material regarding the history of this branch of the Cantrell family, that has been of the greatest help in this work. He was a member and an officer of the First Presbyterian church at Nashville for half a century. One of his sons writes of him: "As a Christian gentleman, pure in all his words and deeds, he left us the richest heritage, a spotless character; such a one as family, kindred and friends may look upon and remember with pride. He was of that old school of gentlemen fast passing away."

130 THE CANTRILL-CANTRELL GENEALOGY of many magazine articles and of a handsome volume of 300 pages, entitled: "The Annals of Christ Church Parish, Little Rock, Arkansas," the Mother Protestant Episcopal church of the west and southwest. She is a graduate of the Nashville

Female Academy and of the French Academy and is proficient in music. She represented the state of Arkansas at the World's Fair at Chicago, as essayist, and at the Exposition at Nashville. She has served as state regent of Arkansas, National Society of Daughters of the American Revolution and has also been a devoted and active worker many years in Christ Church. William Armour Cantrell graduated from the Medical Depart- ment of the University of Louisville, Mar. G, 1847; was assistant physician at Bellevue Hospital, New York City; physician at the Nursery Hospital at Blackwell's Island, N. Y., and at the New Orleans Hospital, where he treated yellow fever in epidemic form. He removed to Pine Bluff, Ark., to be near his aged father, and after his father's death, in 1854, settled in Little Rock, Ark., where he built a commodious brick residence in 1S60, which was his home the remainder of his life. Dr. Cantrell filled successively and honorably the positions of city physician, county physician, president of the state board of medical examiners, president of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, and delegate to the Medical Association at Nashville, besides attending to a large practice. He was a noted surgeon. During the Civil War he performed distinguished service in the Confederate Army. Was appointed surgeon of Col. T. J. Church- ill's regiment, 1st Arkansas mounted volunteers in 1861. After the war he was urged to take charge of the United States Post Hospital at Little Rock and accepted, holding the position as acting assistant surgeon during the command of Brevet Major General Arnold, Captain Light Battery G, Fifth Artillery and that of Col. C. H. Smith, 2Sth Infantry, a period of five years. His record at that hospital added much to his reputation for sagacity and skill already earned. Later he had charge of the medical department at the School for the Blind in Little Rock. In 1S55 Dr. Cantrell and his wife became members of Christ Church (Protestant Episcopal). Dr. Cantrell was a member of the vestry of that church for over forty-five years and was a senior warden for over ten years. At the time of his death, a friend said of him: "He was one of the best known and esteemed men in this vi-

DESCENDANTS OF JOSEPH 2 CANTRILL 131

cinity, and his nature was so rounded that he overflowed with the milk of human kindness. Generous and good, he cherished no

ill feelings against any one, and it was remarked by all who knew him that in thought, speech and action, he was one of the most charitable of men. Beloved by all classes, the humblest as well as the highest in our midst will miss with poignant regret his cheery greeting and sincere sympathy." We quote the following regarding Dr. Cantrell from the "Bio- graphical and Historical Memoirs of Central Arkansas:" " While the social amenity of his disposition and grace of manner have caused him to be sought by the most polished circles, the earnest simplicity and sympathy of his nature have endeared him to the most humble in rank. Like a full river, bravely bearing its own burdens to the sea. yet dispensing life and refreshment on each side, his course has shown a long succession of private and public services, which prove that the prominent desire of his soul has been to be useful."

She was a daughter of Judge George Webster and Louise Douglass Allen. Judge Allen was at one time attorney general for the state of Tennessee; circuit judge of Sumner county, and one of the best known lawyers of his time. When he died all the citizens of Gallatin ceased work and closed business for twenty-four hours in his honor. Judge Allen's sister, Eliza H., was the first wife of Gen. Samuel Houston, who at the time of their marriage was Governor of Tennessee, and was later President and Governor of Texas.

Early in life Charles C. Cantrell entered the mercantile business, forming a partnership with Maj. John D. Allen (afterward his brother-in-law). At the beginning of the Civil War, he enlisted as a private in Maj. D. C. Douglass' Battalion of Cavalry, C. S. A. He was detailed later as commissary sergeant with Major Bridge-

water's command, General Martin's . division. He served with the army from Murfreesboro, Tenn., to Atlanta, Ga., and surrendered at Company Shops, N. C, in Apr., 1S65, with rank of captain. After the war, Captain Cantrell entered the milling business with his former partner, Major Allen. In 1S68 he moved to Nash- ville and in 1S90 to Louisville. He and his wife now reside at Sparta, Tenn., with their eldest daughter. He has been a devout Christian from childhood, being a life- long member of the Methodist Episcopal church, south. He is also a member of the Frank Cheatham Bivouac of Confederate Veterans.

Capt. Charles Cantrell is six feet high, with an erect military carriage, blue gray eves, gray hair, and from many sources in the south we have heard that he. Judge Robert Cantrell and Judge James E. Cantrill were the three courtliest and handsomest men in that section of the United States.

This branch of the family were later joined in South Carolina by their uncle John Cantrell, who came from North Carolina. Isaac Cantrell settled on Pacolet river, where he owned large

tracts of land, near where Buck creek church now is. He married twice, the name of his first wife is not known; (2) Mary Leonard. The first two children were by his first wife. He died in 1805 and his will was probated in Spartanburg county.

THE DESCENDANTS OF ZEBULON CANTRELL OF PHILADELPHIA

2 J 4. ZEBULON CANTRELL (Richard ) was born in Phila- delphia, Pa., about 1697. His name appears on a tax list in Ches- ter county, Pa., in 1718. He probably married in that locality and moved later into the Welsh Tract district, New Castle county, Pa. Zebulon Cantrell was witness to the will of Thomas Edmond, in

the Hundred of Pencader, county of New Castle, Jan. 6, 175S, and also appeared when the will was probated July 21, 175S. In 17G3 he purchased 200 acres of land in Mill creek Hundred. The records of New Castle county, as stated before, are very incomplete and unsatisfactory: they do not show what disposition was made of this property, nor what became of him. He was a cordwainer, and this property lay on White Clay creek, with a landing on the water, and also extended along the King's Road, which ran from New Castle to Philadelphia, and was one of the first roads made in this country. This old road was a century old when Zebulon Cantrell came to live upon it, and all the great dig- nitaries and high officials from before William Penn had traversed

that way. What tales history suggests in connection with it! Old homes a hundred and a hundred and fifty years of age still

stand along it: the occupants of some of them, although living in them a generation or more, cannot even tell who built them.

It has been impossible to get a correct list, or to learn the exact

number of children Zebulon Cantrell had, but it is probable that there were several. Samuel Cantrell, mentioned in unclassiiied of the name in the back of this book, was probably one of his descendants, as he lived on the old Kind's Road at Newton, about two or three miles from the Mill creek property.

There is a tradition among his descendants that he and his son,

148 THE CANTRILL-CANTRELL GENEALOGY

Joseph, moved to Botetourt county, Va., before the Revolutionary

War, which is probably true, as members of this branch of the family were living in that locality at the time of the Revolution.

Children:

1568. * i. Joseph. 1569. ii. Sarah, m. David Miles, July 5, 1756, in White Clay Creek Hundred. The Miles family were anions; the founders and most influential members of the old Welsh Tract Baptist church, the "Mother church" of this denomination in this country.

3 2 1 156S. JOSEPH CANTRELL (Zebulon, Richard ) was born in Pennsylvania, probably between 1720-25. It is most likely that he married in New Castle county, Pa., and moved to Bote- tourt county, Va., some time before the Revolutionary War.

As in the case of his father, it is probable that there were a number of children in this family, but the only one whose descendants can be positively traced are those of his son Joshua. Jeremiah Cantrell, given among the unclassified in the back of this book, doubtless was a grandson of Joseph, as he was born in Botetourt county, Va. Records do not show that any other branch of the family settled in this section. It is also probable that some of the descendants went south.

Child: 1570. *i. Joshua.

4 3 2 1 1570. JOSHUA CANTRELL (Joseph, Zebulon, Richard ) was born Aug. S, 174S, in Pennsylvania and was a lad when his parents moved to Botetourt county, Va. Married Ann Graham.

She was born May 3, 1751, and died Feb. 9, 1819. They were married and living in Botetourt county as earl}' as 1773. In 17S9 when the tide of emigration turned westward, they went with their family to what afterwards became Bath county, Ivy., where he died Sept. 9, 1800.

It is said that Joshua Cantrell and his father, Joseph Cantrell. were both many years ruling elders in the Presbyterian church. Joshua Cantril was a soldier in the Revolutionary War. One of his grandsons has the original copy of the oath of allegiance taken by Joshua Cantril, which rends as follows:

"Pittsylvania County. I do hereby certify that Joshua Cantril, oath taken and subscribed the oath of affirmation of allegiance and fidelity, as directed by an act of General Assembly, entitled, An act to oblige the free male inhabitants of this state above a cer-

She was born near Pharisburg, Ohio, Mar. 21, 1S35, and was a daughter of Thomas and Mississippi Foreman. Her mother was born in what was known as the French settlement in

Illinois, Sept. 3, 1S03. Zebulon D. Cantrell and his father travelled across country from Waynesville to Clinton, 111., in 1854, looking for a farm. They could have purchased the best land at SI. 25 per acre. They decided that the land could never be cultivated and that only a small strip along the timber would ever be fit for habitation. In 1858, when Zebulon Cantrell and his wife moved to a farm six miles west of Wapella, bought from the Illinois Central Railroad Company, their friends repeatedly said that they would starve living so far from the timber. It would be impossible to describe their early experiences on the uncultivated prairie, but there was always room in their home for the traveller and there seemed to be no limit when it came to entertaining their friends. The farm he improved became one of the best farms in the state. Zebulon Cantrell was an elder and leader in the Elm Grove Presbyterian church, near his farm. He was a justice of the peace for twenty-five years and held many other positions of trust. He died May 16, 1S97.

Just a week before the uprising and massacre of white settlers by the Cherokee Indians in Bath county, Ky., in 1811, Joshua Cantrall, his family and probably all his father's family moved to Clark county, Ohio. From there he and his family moved to Illinois, in 1835, settling near Waynesville. On the farm which he improved there, which is about a mile from Waynesville, there is a pear tree still standing (1907) which he planted, which is now an immense tree, and often bears fifty bushels of little sugar pears.

This farm is now the property and home of James Cantrall, a grandson. Joshua Cantrall was a ruling elder in the Presbyterian church at Buck Creek, Champaign county, Ohio; also an elder of the Pres- byterian church of Waynesville, 111., from the time of its organization in his own home in 1S36, until his death. He had visited a meeting of the Sangamon county Presbytery and secured an order for the organization. The congregation worshipped in his house, or in the woods near by for two years before erecting its first church building. According to a statement made by his son Levi, in the "Herald and Presbyter " some years before his death, Joshua Can- trall, and his father, Joshua Cantrall, Sr., and his grandfather,

Joseph Cantrall, were all ruling elders in the Presbyterian church.

Joshua Cantrall began life a poor man, but left each of his nine children two hundred acres of land. None of the nine children died under the age of fifty-two years, and one, Levi, was over eighty-six. His daughter, Polly, was the first girl married in

De Witt county after its organization. His will was the first probated in that county. Joshua Cantrall had a flint gun, with which he killed more than a thousand deer. This gun is now in the possession of Frank Ross

Cantrall, a great-grandson, and is always to be in the possession of the oldest living male descendant of Thomas Dunham Cantrall.

1577. LEVI CANTRALL 5 (Joshua,4 Joseph, 3 Zebulon, 2 Rich- ard *) was born Oct. 1, 17S7, in Botetourt county, Va., and was two years of age when his parents moved to Kentucky. Married

(1) Fanny England, Nov. 30, 1809, in Bath county, Ky. She was born Oct. 2, 1792, and died Sept. 10, 1S35, leaving thirteen children. He married (2) Mrs. Ann Barnett, nee Patterson, May 27,

1S36, in Sangamon county, 111.; five children, of whom three died in infancy. Levi Cantrall was left an orphan at the age of twelve years and was bound to a man who was a tanner. This man whipped him so severely that he carried the scars all his life. At the age of fourteen, he ran away from his hard master and made his own living. In relating his early hardships to his children, he taught them to always show kindness to the poor and needy. Levi Cantrall and his family moved to Madison county, Ohio, in

1811. In Oct., 1819, they moved'to Madison county, 111., and

from there to Sangamon county, where they arrived Dec. 4, 1819, at the present site of Springfield. On the fifth they reached the

north side of the Samramon river, in what is now Fancv creek

DESCENDANTS OF ZEBULON 2 CANTRELL 189 township, and on the seventh selected a location, where they commenced to build a cabin, Dec. 8, 1819. From Levi Cantrall's notes of the trials these early settlers of Sangamon county had to endure, we quote the following excerpts: "December S, set to build a cabin and got one raised and chinked and chimney up to the mantle, when the weather set in so hard that mortar froze so we could not plaster it. December 24 the snow began to fall and there was one snow after another until it was two feet on a level.'' He goes on to tell how extremely cold the weather was until Feb. 11. when it moderated and rained. Then a company consisting of Levi and Wyatt Cantrall, Mathew Holland, Alexander Crawford, Henry Crawford, a Mr. Kellogg and John Dixon, who afterwards founded the city of Dixon, 111., set out for the American Bottom to get provisions. The weather again became extremely cold. They loaded their wagons with flour, meal, etc., and started home on the eighteenth, driving fourteen head of hogs. At night it was very cold, but during the day the rain and melting snow made hard work of their progress and the whole country was simply afloat. They met a farmer, by the name of Bans, who had been stuck for three days in a snow- drift with a load of corn and was badly frost-bitten. They helped him out of his difficulties. When they got to Sugar creek, they had to cut timber and build a bridge over the ice, in order to get the hogs across. In one day they travelled one mile. The next day they reached the Sangamon river, which had overflowed the banks and as they had no boat they had to send back to Kelly's, where the city of Springfield now stands, to get tools to build a canoe. This canoe was made with an axe and grubbing hoe. They finally reached home twenty-one days from the time they started. The snow remained in drifts until Mar. 10. The spring was fine and they commenced to cultivate the land. April 25, there was a heavy rain; then a drought set in. May 26, a frost cut their corn to the ground, and there was no more rain until July 19. They were so discouraged they thought of moving back to the settlement. However, they hauled provisions before the next winter and lived through it. In 1820 Levi Cantrall built a horse mill. It was a band mill with a wheel forty feet in diameter and ground the first grain on the north side of the Sangamon river. The people came to this mill for thirty miles or more. In 1S22 he built a water mill on Cantrall's creek, near the present town of Cantrall, for sawing and grinding. He kept a tannery for over

190 THE CANTRILL-CANTRELL GENEALOGY

forty years. In telling of the deep snow in 1S30, he says that there was one snow after another until the snow was four feet on a level: it drifted until it covered stake and rider fences and in main- places was seven or eight feet deep. On his farm it took two good yoke of oxen to haul one shock of fodder, and this lasted from November to February, 1S30-31. It is said that Levi Cantrall gathered material for a family history and wished it published after his death, which occurred Feb. 22, 1S60, but these papers have not been found. The town of Cantrall, 111., was laid out on land he entered soon after coming to that state, and was named in honor of his memory.

His brother, Levi Cantrall, joined them there in the fall of 1S19 and the two brothers lived on adjoining farms just north of the present location of the town of Cantrall, for twenty years. In the experiences related under the heading of Levi Can- trail, Wyatt Cantrall also took an active part, and it was he who was sent back for tools to make the canoes to ferry the party across the overflowing Sangamon river, in that first hard winter these early settlers spent in this new country. Later Wyatt Cantrall moved to Sterling, 111., and after the death of his second wife, he moved to Kansas, where he died Oct. 25, 1S77.

THE DESCENDANTS OF BENJAMIN CANTRELL OF MASSACHUSETTS

2054. BENJAMIN CANTRELL l arrived in Philadelphia from Ireland about 1764. From records and traditions in this family, we learn that they were descendants of the Cantrells who fled from France to Ireland, at, or about the time of the St. Bartholomew Massacre (1572). After living in Philadelphia two years, Benjamin Cantrell moved to New York, where he lived from 1766 to 1770. He went next to Boston, Mass., and served in the Revolutionary War. He was wounded during the war. In 1787 he settled in Deerfield, Mass., where he died. He was living there in 1S17.

He is mentioned in "The History of Deerfield, Massachusetts," by George Sheldon, and from personal interviews with this gentleman in Boston in April, 1903 (he was then eighty-four years of age), a great deal was learned of this Cantrell family, as he had known members of it well during his residence at Deerfield. Benjamin Cantrell married Parvin, in Philadelphia, about 1766. The Parvin family located in Pennsylvania as early as 173S and were a prominent and wealthy family.

UNCLASSIFIED RECORDS

2128. Mary Thomas Cantrell was a daughter of Rev. Owen Thomas. Rev. Owen Thomas was born in Wales in 167G; came to America in 1707 and took charge of the Welsh Tract Baptist church, Pencader Hundred, New Castle county, Pa., in 1740, continued in care thereof to May 27, 174S, when he resigned to go to Yellow Springs, where he died Nov. 12, 1760. His daughter Mary married a Cantrell. She was baptized Oct. 6, 1744, at the Welsh Tract Baptist church and was married at this time, but we could not find which one of the Cantrells she married. They had several children.

2129. Alice Cantrell married Rev. Jonathan Jermyn, a prominent Baptist minister, about 1750. They lived at Shiloh, N. J., and had several children. She was no doubt of the New Castle county, Pennsylvania family, as her New Jersey home was just across the Delaware river.

2130. Nathaniel Chantrell's name appears in an old MSS. list in 1701, Christiana Hundred, New Castle county, Pa.

2131. Richard Cantrell married Mary Reily, Aug. 1, 1777, at St. John's Episcopal church at Lancaster, Pa.

2132. Samuel Cantrill, tailor, bought land, on which there was a house and stable, on the old King's road (now Market street), and James street in the village of Newport, Christiana Hundred, New Castle county, Pa., Sept. 20, 1793. Samuel Cantrill was probably a descendant of Zebulon Cantrill, whose land on the King's road was only two or three miles from Newport. Samuel Cantrill died about 1793 and letters of administration on his estate were granted to Zachariah Derrickson, administrator, (Sarah Cantrill, the widow, having renounced). May 19, 1795, Sarah Cantrill was appointed guardian of three

220 THE CANTRILL-CANTRELL GENEALOGY orphan children of Samuel Cantrill. She sold the home at New- port, Apr. 5, 1796, and all trace of her and her family are then lost.

Children:

2133. i. George. 2134. ii. Robert. 2135. iii. Mary.

2136. Isaac Cantrell. In a letter dated at Baltimore, 1S19, Samuel Jennings wrote to his brother, Jonathan Jennings, Gov- ernor of Indiana, recommending Mr. Isaac Cantrell, who was leaving Baltimore, intending to reside in Ohio, or Indiana, and states that he has a son and daughter "capable of giving useful instruction to youth."

2137. Jeremiah Cantrell wr as born in Botetourt county, Va. (He probably was a descendant of Zebulon Cantrell's line.) Mar- ried Mary Reynolds in Virginia. Jeremiah Cantrell was a fife major, under General Jackson, in the War of 1S12 and was at the Battle of New Orleans. He received a grant of land for his services in that war, and settled in Indiana, where he died.

Child: 2138. James C, was b. in Indianapolis, Ind., in 1S23. Married twice, but has no living children.

James C. Cantrell served in the northern army during the Civil War and after the war moved to Philadelphia, Pa., where he now lives. In a personal interview in 1900, he recalled many of the current traditions of the family, i. e. that one of his ancestors had a brickyard in Philadelphia at its first settlement; that one of the older members of the family had over twenty children, some of them being twins. The old family names he could remember were Richard, Joseph, Joshua. Stephen and Zebulon. He had heard that the family moved from Pennsylvania to the western part of Virginia and he thought his great-grandfather was in the Revo- lutionary War, but could not tell his first name.

2139. John Chantrell. In No. 4, North Carolina Register, an abstract of the will of John Chantrell, executed Apr. 16, 1774, appears. The devisees named are relatives in Devonshire, Eng., except John Harthridge, of Powell's Point, N. C, and his sistrr Sarah Hopkins. He evidently was unmarried. It has been sug-

UNCLASSIFIED RECORDS 221 gested that he was a mariner, whose home was in Devonshire, Eng., and that he did not belong to the American family.

2140. Adam Cantrall, head of a family, census of 1790, in Green- ville district, S. C. He had four sons under sixteen years of age and five daughters in 1790. We have not found any trace of these descendants.

2141. John Cantrall, head of a family, census of 1790, in Green- ville district, S. C, with one son under sixteen years of age. This family could not be traced.

2142. Samuel Cantrell came from Ireland to New York in 1S00. He remained in New York City, where many of his descendants now live.

2143. Edwin Cantrell, of Brooklyn, N. Y., was born in England, where his ancestors have lived for many generations.

2144. William H. Cantrell was born in New York City. His father, William Cantrell, came from Naniea, County Tipperary, Ireland. His grandfather was a property owner in County Tippe- rary and the family was one of influence and distinction there. Among them was a rector in the Episcopal church.

2145. Samuel Cantrell came from County Westmeath, Ireland, to Brooklyn, N. Y., in 1SS0. He confirms the tradition that the Cantrells in Ireland have always been Protestants.

Of the Monticello, N. Y., Cantrell family, all we could learn was that there were two brothers, George and Thomas, but we have not found where this family originally came from.

Children:

2146. * i. George. 2147. *ii. Thomas.

2146. George Cantrell, m. and lived at Monticello, N. Y.

Children: 2148. George. 2149. Minerva.

2170. Zebulon Cantrell's will, dated Dec. 28, 1S83, in Spartan- burg county, S. C, mentions: his wife Kitty; grandsons Zebulon and William Cantrell; granddaughters Emily and Panthy Can- trell. In the last century three sons of George Cantrell, of Nottingham, Eng. (whose father, George Cantrell, Sr., was the inventor of Nottingham lace), came to Wisconsin. They were: 2171. Joseph B. Cantrell, who moved from Wisconsin to San Francisco. 2172. Thomas Cantrell, who moved from Wisconsin to San Francisco. 2173. William Cantrell, who moved from Wisconsin to Chicago. The family of Cantrelle in New Orleans probably went to that city direct from France, but I have not been able to verify this.

APPENDIX B

MINUTES OF THE REUNION OF THE CANTRILL FAMILY OF THE UNITED STATES HELD AT THE JAMESTOWN EXPOSITION IX VIRGINIA ON SEPTEMBER 5, 1907.

A large number of the members of the Cantrill or Cantrell family, of the United States, met in the Convention Hall of the Inside Inn, at the Jamestown Exposition in the State of Vir- ginia at 10:30 a. m. on September 5, 1907, in response to the following call:

REUNION OF THE CANTRELL FAMILY

To be Held at the Jamestown Exposition, September Fifth, 1907

June, 1907.

To all numbers of the Cantrell Family in the United States:

Inasmuch as William Cantrell, or William Cantrill, believed to have been the first individual of the name in this country, landed at Jamestown, Vir- ginia, some three hundred years ago, ami became a member of the first Eng- lish settlement established within the territory of the United States, it has been thought and suggested that a reunion of his family and possible descendants, at Jamestown, while the Exposition there is in progress, would be particularly interesting and appropriate. As a result of this suggestion, the undersigned have been selected as a committee to fix a date and arrange for such a reunion. After due consideration. Thursday, September 5th, 1907, has been agreed upon as the most convenient time; and a meeting of the entire Cantrell family of the United States is hereby called to Take place at the Jamestown Exposition, within the Commonwealth of Virginia, on that date. A programme for the reunion will be arranged later, and all persons ex- pecting to attend, or desiring further information, will please write to Charles W. Cantrell. Corresponding Secretary, 1022 Bessemer Building, Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. Through the kindness of Mrs. Susan Cantrill Christie, who has devoted much time, during the past ten years, to the collection of the history of the family, we have been furnished with the names and addresses of about 500

23S THE CANTRILL-CANTRELL GENEALOGY members of the Cantrell family located in 31 States of the Union (most of them being heads of families) and representing practically every calling and profession. No doubt many of these will attend the Jamestown Exposition in any event, and, it is believed that hundreds of them will make it convenient to be present on September 5th. There are many others scattered throughout the Country, whose names and addresses are not known and have not been furnished to your committee; and, we therefore request all persons receiving this letter to, as far as possible, notify all members and friends of the family known to them, of the time and place of the reunion hereinbefore called. The idea of the coming together of the family and possible descendants of one of the first English Settlers of the United States, upon the site of the first English Settlement, after three hundred years of American progress, will appeal strongly to every loyal member of the family. The occasion will no doubt be one of great interest and enjoyment, and we respectfully urge all who can possibly do so, to be in attendance on the date above named.

A finance committee was appointed consisting of William Magness Cantrell, Chairman, Charles W. Cantrell, Fielding T. Cantrell, Charles C. Williams and Harlan P. Christie. Announcement was made that a family dinner had been arranged for, to take place at the Inside Inn in the evening, and

thereupon the meeting adjourned until 2:30 p. m. At 2:30 p. m. the adjourned meeting was called to order by Secretary John H. Cantrell. C. W. Cantrell continued to act as Secretary. After expressing regret on account of the absence of Judge James T. Cantrill, who, by reason of illness, was unable to be present, the presiding officer introduced Mr. Cecil Edwards Cantrill, youngest son of Judge Cantrill, who read the following communication from his father:

"To my Kinsmen assembled in family convention at the James- town Exposition, Virginia, "Greetings:

"It is with more profound sadness and regret than any one of you may ever know that I am forced to realize that I may not be with you as Presiding Officer, with which position you have honored me; but more especially, to myself than all else, to feel that I am not to be one of you on this, the first recorded call of the blood in three centuries. Allow me to present to you, through my younger son, Cecil Edwards Cantrill, very briefly all my good wishes for the perfect success of this auspicious occasion and prophesy its lasting good even though a mere handful shall be gathered together, to know more of the family history, its origin, traditions over the seas and in America, since the landing of William the First on the shores of the most wonderful Republic which history notes.

"In the multitude of thoughts that flood my brain when I reflect upon the significance of this gathering, though not to trespass too far, I shall hold you to but few of these for your consideration.

REUNION AT JAMESTOWN 241

"First: That a careful study of a good and honorable, and therefore a great lineage, its characteristics; its strengths and its weaknesses as well, is to engender a wholesome racial pride, a safeguard and a self-respect that tend to make a people in- capable of pettiness in thought and deed and of a class of low crimes common to those who have not the wisdom to learn the dignity and honor of a clean descent. "Second: I beg to impress upon this Convention of the Clan Cantrill, especially upon the impressible young, some of whom must be present, this all important fact, that any Cantrill, old or young, rich or poor, prominent or obscure, who may be privi- leged to add lustre to his name by any individual deed of mental, moral, or physical prowess, dare not by anything ignoble be- smirch the highest ideals already established and exalted by his forbears and kindred. To bedim one ray of a star is to de- grade to that extent not only himself, but by reflection his people. It is not given to all to become heroic; but to each belongs the privilege to hold with firmness in the struggle of life to his duty by guarding in his stronghold, like a sleepless sentinel, the weak- est part in the battlement, till perchance a greater shall come to lead him to higher things. "The essentials of a fine family are the essentials of good American citizenship; to bravely and courageously do with no murmur, in silence and alone if need be, patiently, conscientiously, unswervingly his full duty where his duty finds him.

"Like all who enter the arena of life, some epochs of my own have been in the trough as well as on the crest of the wave, and as the shadows grow long in the fast coming sunset, I congratu- late myself on nothing more than that in the various vicissitudes that have come to me, I have tried to practice the little preach- ments I here make to you to-day.

"Again, with the kindliest greetings and goodbye, I shall always feel myself and wish you to regard me as, "Very faithfully yours, "James Edwards Cantrill."

A resolution was unanimously adopted providing for the organization of a permanent Cantrell Association for the especial purpose of collecting and preserving the history of the family, and the following officers of said Association were unanimously elected, to-wit:

After a brief address of acceptance by the newly elected Presi- dent of the Association, an extended paper by Mrs. Susan Can- trill Christie on "The Cantrells in England and America" was read. Following the reading of Mrs. Christie's paper an hour or more was devoted to the relating of family reminiscences and to a general and extemporaneous discussion of Cantrell characteristics, remarks along these lines being made by Charles H. Cantrall of Athens, III, William M. Cantrell of Guntersville, Ala., Orval Cantrill of Harveyville, Kan., Chas. W. Cantrell of Pittsburg, Pa., Mrs. Nelah Gulp of Louisville, Ky., T. W.

The afternoon meeting then adjourned with the understand- ing that those present would attend the family dinner in the evening.

8:30 p. m. The family dinner was served at the Inside Inn, and was attended by practically all members of the family attending the reunion.

Mrs. James E. Cantrill presided most brilliantly as Toast- mistress.
