Hello List, >From these Marriage & Census records of Ripley Co; Mo; these Cagle's, arrived in Missouri, in the 1840's. There are several clues here as to who is who. For starters there is Elijah Cagle's marriage to, Eleanor Brumley. They are married in 1845, but is this her with him in the 1850 census? Looks to me like it is and mabey Tempy, is short for Temperance, and that was part of her name. This being so then Elijah, had a previous marriage. For the first Missouri born child in their household is, Aranelia Cagle b. 1846. The other children from Mary Ann Cagle age 10, up were born in Tennessee. Looks like these children are from two differen't mothers. Then there is the marriage of Charles Cagle to Margaret Hartwick, in 1847. Now look at their household in the 1850 census. Margaret, is listed as 18 yrs. old, Charles as 59 yrs. Here it looks like Elijah age 3, and Jane age 3 mos; are her children. Then again there was a previous marriage for, Charles Cagle. Then in this same household is, Jane Wagoner age 7. Now the question is what relationship is she to, Charles Cagle. She wouldn't be a daughter, for she would be listed as, Cagle. Could a sister of Charles, married a Wagoner, and this was her daughter. This being the case then the mother & father, must have died. Remember that there was a very early Cagle & Wagoner, connection. John George Waganer, is a passenger with Leonhart Kegel, on the Loyal Judith. Mabey someone on the list can shed some more light, on these families.
