My maternal grandfather, James Vinis Davis was, according to his
tombstone, born June 3, 1887, Boone Co., AR to MARY ELIZABETH CAGLE
and her husband, John Preston Davis, who according to Boone Co.
marriage records, were married June 8, 1888.
MARY ELIZABETH CAGLE, born ca. 1869, in Tennessee to WASHINGTON ELL
CAGLE who was b. Aug. 23, 1848, perhaps in Tennessee. He died. Aug.
22, 1922, and is buried at Lead Hill, AR. I believe WASHINGTON ELL
CAGLE's wife was a Nancy Smith (when and where? Who were her
parents?).
Now I am at my brick wall. Who are the parents and grandparents of
WASHINGTON ELL CAGLE? I believe his father was John Cagle, or perhaps
John Jacob Cagle. I think Washington Ell's mother was Sallie (Sara)
Brown, a daughter of Tommie Brown and Celia Green.
Would appreciate any information concerning my line of Cagles and its
related families.
