Sherry,
We are close cousin's that I first thought. I am a descendant of John and
Rebecca Thorne Cantrell. I have not yet begun to prove the information
received from Warren but would love to work with you on this project. I have
been working on the Marion Co. AL. Cantrell's as this is where my double
Cantrell connection separates before moving into Texas and meeting up again
in Navarro County several generations later. I have worked through some of
The Arkansas Cantrell's as that is where one side of the connection migrated
to. I have been rather negligent to my Cantrell research as I got side
tracked into a collateral family line for the past couple of years but would
love to communicate with you more. I think if we pool our sources we can
make connection . Please feel free to email me off the list and anyone else
willing to devote to the endeavor.
