I know almost nothing about my CAPELL ancestry except that a Mary Capell
married William BATTLE, b abt 1728, probably in Surry Co VA. They moved
at some point to North Carolina, possibly Northhampton or Edgecombe
Counties. Late in life William moved to Nash Co., NC where he died about
1780. I have information on only three of William and Mary's children:
William, James and John Battle.
Mary is alleged to be the dau of a John CAPELL, presumably from
southside VA as well. I don't know his wife's name, or have any dates.
Internet databases are surprisingly scarce on details for this surname.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks,
John Ottinger
