Actually, the thanks should go to a number of people, but primarily John
G Cagle,
Nancy Jane Balmer, Doyle Chambers, David, Earl and LaMona who have been
most helpful with providing information to newbies.
Nearly all the information I have on George Cagle, I gathered from
Journals and
other publishings of John G. Cagle and the internet. I merely put it
into
chronological order in my notes section of George's family page of my
software.
So, the actual research was done by someone else as is the case with most
of
the information I have colated and included in my notes.
I am attempting to complete the descendents of Leonard Cagle, b. 1683. I
know
this is a monumental task, but I am well on my way. It is not my intent
to write
a book nor any other commercial purpose. I know there will be errors,
but this
is just a guide to help you and other beginners get a foothold on your
ancestry
just as others helped me with mine. Besides, it's fun!!

Thank you Lee, Earl and all the other long-time researchers for
sharing over
and over again all the info you've gathered in your research
efforts. I know
it must get tiresome to repeat things as new people come to the list
or
begin their ancestor hunts. Know that your efforts are appreciated
even
when we forget to tell you so!
