Sonja,
I know that there are at least a few of Nathaniel's line on the list,
can anyone help Sonja??????
Henry's gang does comprise most of the list, but when you can locate
about six marriages for a Henry in a very short span of time, it stands
to reason that there would be more ancestors in that link. My Thomas
didn't do bad either, his just came later. HA!!
I think I do have some things on Sarah, I will start digging and see what
I come up with.

Subject: Sarah Cartmell/Cartmill
<<File: ATT00001.htm>>Dear Earliene,
I take it that the majority of the research on the Cartmills is in the male lines, like
Henry,
John, James, etc. Is there no one out there researching Sarah Cartmell or Cartmill who
married Thomas Chester in Chester Co. PA, and them moved into the Frederick Co. VA
area? She was a Quaker, but he was not. They ran away to get married, and she was
excommunicated from her church. She was the daughter of Nathaniel Cartmill/Cartmell,
or Samuel Cartmill/Cartmell. She and Thomas Chester went with the settlers who moved
into the Shenandoah valley under the leadership of Joist Hite.
I would like to know if anyone has the genealogy of Sarah showing her roots back to
England,
or if anyone has her children's names so that I can pick up the next link in the
Chester line.
I believe that David Chester is her son, and the next generation of my line, but I cannot
prove
it. Does anyone know if she had a son named David?
Well, I thought maybe Mr. Owens-Smith might have some information on my Cartmells. By
the
way, I am related to both Owens and Smiths. Owens in N. Georgis, Smiths in NC. Small
world,
isn't it?
Thanks for your help. I am really enjoying the discussions.
