John,
Below is some information on the Clontz-Long family. I want to give credit
for this research to Betty K. Price, Deborah Gaudier and others. Clontz,
Clonts, Clants, Glantz is interchangeable.
As you will note, my g/g/g/grandmother, Catherine Clontz Polk, 1798-1870,
was a sister to Jeremiah Clontz Jr. (1786-died after 1860) who married
Catherine Cagle (surname not known by me or Clontz researchers). The
daughter of Charles T. Polk and Catherine Clontz Polk was Eliza Catherine
Polk, 05/16/1816-01/08/1873. Eliza Catherine Polk, ca 1838, married John
Cagle, 01/01/1813-01/09/1879.
John Cagle was the son of Henry Cagle, Jr. 1780-1857 and the grandson of
Henry Cagle, Sr., 1760-1837. Henry Cagle, Jr along with two brothers,
George Cagle and Charles Cagle, and the Charles T. Polk family moved from
the Mecklenburg-Cabarrus Co. area of NC to Hardin Co., TN between 1820 and
1830. Henry Cagle Sr. came to Hardin Co., TN between 1830 and 1833.
There is absolutely no proof here, but, I suspect that Catherine Cagle who
married Jeremiah Clontz, Jr. was the daughter of Henry Cagle Sr. We will
need some proof.
