I am trying to find the parents and first wife of JOSHUA CARTWRIGHT born
Va circa 1775 died Warren Co., TN 1840. Family history says his parents
were William Cartwright (born VA 1740 died TN 1828?) and wife , Rebecca.
Is this correct. Is William the son of Matthew Cartwright (born MD 1729)
and wife Teressia? Joshua's oldest son was named Richard Newton
Cartwright (born 1801). Was Joshua's wife a Newton? Joshua was named as
an heir in the will of Richard Newton who died in GA circa 1803. Was
Richard Newton Joshua's father-in-law? Any help would be appreciated
