    1. Leonard and Elizabeth Smith Cagle
    2. Hi I just copied 4 pages of info for you and lost it all . had the census for your Leonard back to 1810 . (Hope this is the right one . I don't know when my aunt bought these books but here is a name and address , mybe they still live there. It is worth a chance because they have the family Bible. Leonard Cgle Family Bible Jasper County, MO. The page at right from the Family Bible of Leonard Cagle 1780-1845, should help to clarify the family relationships among the Cagles of Jasper & Lawrence Cos., MO. (Provided by Mr. Robert Ernest Cagle , 20605 Via Azul, Yorba Linda, CA. 92686.) it might be noted that the birthplaces of Leonard, 1780-1845, and wife Elizabeth 1787-1866, are given as VA and SC; while this could be correct, it might seem more likely they were borh born in NC. the 1860 Census of Jasper Co. Mo lists Eliz. as born in NC. and, it is known that the father of Leonard, if corectly identified as John Cagle, Sr. Ca. 1740s-1826, was in NC in the 1760s, and living in what is now Cabarrus Co. in 1780. Of the sons listed at right , Linsey settled in Lawrence Co. Mo; Henry was in California in 1850 & 1860; Robert died as an infant; Edwin stayed in Jasper Co. MO. David remained in Jasper Co. MO. Benjamin , who died in 1900 moved to Charition Co. Mo, Charles remined in Jasper Co MO. willis moved to Saline Co. MO. Rebecca , 1817-1884, married John Logan Schooling on Jan 29, 1846, and their daughter Barthena Schooling, later married David C. Cagle , b 1843, son of Lindsey Cagle 1807-1863, on July 20. 1865. Other Jasper co.Marriages include David Cagle 1820-1896 to Mary J. Haselwood, Nov. 29, 1854. and Benj., 1825-1900 to Martha Walton , Sep. 23, 1860. This must be a copy of the page in the Bible.

The 1826 letter of Rebecca Cagle of Montgomery (present Stanly ) Co. NC , widow of George Cagle , Sr. d-1825--refers to Leonard and Sampson as "cousins" perhaps Leonard and Sampson were the sons of John Cagle Sr. , of 1790 census of Mecklenburg (present Cavarrus) Co. NC, who moved to Davidson Co., TN by 1804, though this has not been conclusively proven ,Sampson, 1782-1874, remained permanently in the Warren /Allen Co. area, and is buried in the Cagle Family Cemetery in Warren county. Leonard who was somewhat older than Sampson, seems to have died in the 1840sl however, his widow and family appeared in the 1850 census of Jasper County, Missouri. 1820 nothing listed for them Leonard Cagle (only Sampson (1820 was in Allen , KY , then in 1830 went back to Warren county, 1820 Allen Census 0100001-1031201 p.120, then went back to 1830 Warren Co.

Leonard's father was probably John Cagle , Sr. 1740s-1826 of Cavarrus co., NC, who moved to Davidson Co. TN. about 1800. An even earlier migrant to Jasper of old Barry co., Mo Was Jacob Cagle, 1770s-1836, the brother of Leonard , 1780-1845.

Region of KY between 1800 and 1810. In the 1840s, this family migrated to Jasper Co. Mo, where leionrd soon died, in 1845. by 1860, Lindsey had moved across the county line into Lawrence Co. where his family settled permanently. sons David and Leonard became well-known figures in Lawrence Co., and appeared in all Lawrence Co. Censuses from 1860 through 1910. Well I hope some of this well help you , you probably have most of it , but didn't really know what you had and didn't. It still did not tell us were Leonard is buried . I have that 1826 letter of Rebecca Cagle's in one of these books, will try and find it. Nancy Jane Tarzana , CA April
