We have a book that lists everyone who fought in the American Revolution for the
Continental Army.
It doesn't have anyone by the name of Cecil listed, however several Cecils signed a
pledge
not to fight against the continentals.
My wife's family moved from Maryland to Ohio after the Revolution and were staunch
Whigs,
later Republicans.

I am looking for information, hopefully documented, for the following early
Maryland citizens and visitors.
1. Thomas Cecil b. 1578, Stamford, England, d. 1662 Stamford, England. His
second wife was Susan Oxenbridge. I have seen information that he drew the
first map of Maryland for Lord Calvert. Is this correct and is there any
documentation?
2.John Cecil/Cissell ( also known as John Baptist Cecil /Cissell, son of
Thomas Cecil and Susan Oxenbridge. He was b. 1628, Herefordshire, England,
d. June 1698 in St. Marys, Maryland. He married Mary Calvert in 1660. The
information I have on John: Catholic, Arrived 1658 in Maryland, He was a
gunsmith and a planter, he served as an appraiser in 1676 and 1685. I need
documentation.
3. William Cecil/Cissell, son of John Cecil/Cissell and Mary Calvert. He was
b. 1665, Prince Georges, Maryland , d. July 1749 Frederick Maryland. He
married Mary Katherine Joyner in 1690. He had his three children John,
Phillip and Susan bound to a Duvall upon the death of his wife.
Is there any more information on Williams and is any of it documented?
4. John Cecil/ Cissell son of William Cecil/Cissell and Mary Katherine
Joyner. He was b. Dec. 1691 in Queen Anne's Parish, Prince George's County,
Maryland and d. Jan. 1759 in Queen Anne's Parish, Prince George's County,
Maryland. He married Elizabeth Sollers in 1718 in Cecil County, Maryland.
I have 8 children including Samuel W. Cecil who was a patriot in the
American Revolution. Is there any other information available for John and
Elizabeth and is there documentation?
Any information will be highly appreciated. My wife who is the Cecil
descendant is trying to join the National Association of the Daughters of
the American Colonist.
