Does anyone know whether these two Nathan/Nathaniel CARTMELLs (Cartmills) are the same
person? I have one married to Susan SPEERS and the other married to Sarah RUSSELL. I
have no dates for them.
The child of Nathan CARTMELL and Susan SPEERS was:
-Rogeneah (Regina) CARTMELL, b. 1783 Jefferson co., VA; m. Jacob CRIST Frederick co., VA;
d. 1858 Spencer co., KY. (*These are my ancestors.*)
The children of Nathaniel CARTMELL and Sarah RUSSELL were:
-Rachel Ann CARTMELL, b. 1766 Frederick co., VA; m. Henry CRIST 1788 Frederick co., VA; d.
1850 Bullitt co., KY.
-Jacob CARTMELL, b.1763, Frederick co., VA; m. Rebecca CRIST; d. 1835 Nelson co., KY.
-Nathan CARTMELL, b. 1762, m. Susan Catherine CRIST 1787 Norfolk, VA; d. 1804 Bullitt co.,
KY.
All of the above CRIST spouses were children of Nicholas Heinrich CRIST, b. 1740 Frederick
co., VA; d. 1822 Nelson co. KY, and his wives (1) Sarah Jane CARTMELL (mother of Henry
CRIST; dau. of Edward CARTMELL and Porsinna
BAILEY) and (2) Sarah SPEERS (mother of Jacob, Rebecca and Susan Catherine CRIST; dau. of
Peter SPEERS and Regina FROMAN).
I would also like to know how all the above SPEERS (Spears) relate to each other and how
they relate to Solomon SPEARS who was a friend of Henry CRIST. Corrections and additional
info about these families (Cartmells, Speers, and Crist) are also welcome.
Hoping someone can help to connect the dots and complete the picture!
Thanks in advance,
Marianne
