Following notes from the Carmi G. Cantrell book "The Cantrell Family,; a biographical album and history of the Descendants of Zebulon Cantrell , The Immigrant." Includes data concerning the families whop have allied themselves with the Cantrells by marriage, Covering the period from 1700 to 1898. Compiled and written by Carmi G. Cantrell , Springfield, Illinois, Illinois State Register Printing House, 1898.
"The Cantrell family is of Welch, Scotch, and Irish descent. Zebulon Cantrell came from Wales to American about the year 1700. Some say that two brothers came with him, but of this I can find no record. It is claimed that Zebulon Cantrell built the first brick house in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
He had a son Joseph, and Joseph had a son Joshua. Joshua's grandson, John S., of Derby, Kansas, has the original evidence that he took out naturalization papers.
Pittsylvania County. I do hereby certify that Joshua Cantril, oath taken and subscribed the oath or affirmation of allegiance and fidelity, as directed by an act of General Assembly, entitled , An act to oblige the free male inhabitants of this state above a certain age to give assurance of allegiance to the same, and for other purposes. Witness my hand and seal this 6th day of September, 1777. J. L. Morton Following info. from Ed Cantrall of Virginia.........taken from the Susan Cantrill Christie book. ZEBULON CANTRELL Zebulon Cantrell was born in Philadelphia, PA about 1697. His name appears on a tax list in Chester County, PA in 1718. He probably married in that locality and moved later into the Welsh Tract district, New Castle County, PA. Zebulon Cantrell was witness to the will of Thomas Edmond, in the Hundred of Peneader, County of New Castle, Jan. 6, 1758, and also appeared when the will was probated July 21, 1758. In 1763 Zebulon purchased 200 acres of land in Mill Creek Hundred. The records of New Castle County, as stated before, are very incomplete and unsatisfactory; they do not show what disposition was made of the property, nor what became of him. He was a cordwainer, and this property lay on White Clay Creed, with a landing on the water, and also extended along the King's Road, which ran from New Castle to Philadelphia, and was one of the first roads made in this country. This old road was a century old when Zebulon Cantrell came to live upon it, and all the great dignitaries and high officials from before William Penn had traversed that way. What tales history suggests in connection with it! Old homes a hundred and a hundred and fifty years of age still stand along it; the occupants of some of them, although living in them a generation or more, cannot even tell who built them. It has hbeen impossible to get a correct list, or to learn the exact number of children Zebulon Cantrell had, but it is probable that there were several. Samuel, mentioned in unclassified of the name in the back of this books, was probably one of his descendants, as he lived on the old King's Road at Newton, about two or three miles from the Mill Creek property. There is a tradition among Zebulon's descendants that he and his son, Joseph, moved to Botetourt County, VA, before the Revolutionary War, which is probably true, as members of this branch of the ramily were living in that locality at the time of the Revolution.
CHILDREN: 1. Joseph 2. Sarah, m. David Miles, July 5, 1756, in White Cklay Creed Hundred. The Miles family were among the founders and most influential members of the old Welsh Tract Baptist Church, the "Mother Church" of this denomination in this country. 3. Zebulon (Our assumption he is a son of Zebulon.) This family group moved from Chester County, PA., before the Revolution to Botetourt County, VA., and then in 1789 moved to Montgomery (Bath) County, KY.
