My ancestors name was
William Cable. He was
born in 1803 in England.
(Yorkshire, I believe).
His first marriage was to
a woman named "Eliza" in
England and they had the
following children:
John William Cable
(1826-1888) m. Mary
Elizabeth Church
James Cable ( -
1889) m. Adesimer
Wilson
Amelia Cable
(1831-1908) m.
Nathaniel Hawley
Annie Cable
Joseph Cable (1819-
)
Sometime around 1833
William emigrated to
Hamilton, Ontario
Canada. He seemingly
left his children behind
in England. He married
Charlotte Albright
Pomeroy Weir, and they
had one son, Wesley
Cable, who is my
ancestor. They eventually
settled in Saltfleet,
Ontario, where William
died in 1859.
William worked as a
blacksmith, and was also
well known in the area as
a Methodist exhorter.
If anyone has any
knowledge of this family,
I would appreciate any
information.
Thank you,
Kathy
