Linda,
I found on the 1880 census what is listed below. I'm not sure if this your
Leroy or not but it is the only Leroy Cantrell in TN listed being born
around 1877. As you can tell by the information, they are in Smithville,
DeKalb Co. I hope that this is of some help.
Census Place: Smithville, De Kalb, Tennessee

I am looking for any and all information on Leroy Cantrell, born abt.
1877
in Tennessee and his wife, Mattie Lou born about 1903. They show up on the
1930 census in Coffee Co., Manchester Township. Their children in 1930 are
Christine, born October 3, 1925, (Christeen on her death certificate),
Edward, born abt. 1928 and William, born abt. 1929. There may have been
more children that I am unaware of.
Any and all information about Leroy and Mattie Lou's families and
Christine's siblings would be most appreciated.
Thank you.
Linda C. Webster
