Your name, Anthony Cable, is the name of two of my ancestors. My mother was a Cable who
born in Arkansas. I don't have my charts in front of me at the moment but her line as
best I remember traces, starting with her father, Carl Rankin Cable, Jacob Rankin Cable,
Daniel Cable to Jacob Cable in North Carolina and before him I think John Cable son of an
Anthony Cable.
I had always thought the family was probably German but did not know. What particularly
caught my attention was Angus County, Scotland. I would be especially interested in any
connection to Angus County because 30+ years ago, while in the U. S. Navy, I was stationed
at RAF Edzell in Angus County.
