Surname: Cable
-------------------------
My sister-in-law, Marie Cable Buckingham, has been researching the Cable
family for over 30 years. She has about 14,000 names in her files. She
is a descendant of Casper Cable who was born 1755 in Hanover Germany and
died in 1827 in Carter Co., TN. He married Elizabeth Baker 1781 in Carter
Co., TN, now Johnson Co., TN. A note about Casper: Some one has said, "Genealogy
that has no proof is just a mystery." Legends states that he is buried
on the family farm in Johnson Co., TN. It is a known fact that early families
built near water. There does appear even today a dug out area which could
be remains of house foundation near the river. I am helping Marie research
her family on the Internet, any questions I will pass along to her. If
interested in more information please send me a e-mail and I will pass
it along to her and answer for her.
