I can imagine the lure of the new world for him, especially if he already had relatives here who were possibly writing back and forth to those still in Germany. Lee, I think you read the date wrong. This line came about 130 years after Leonhart. I will however post it when I have some time to type it up. Who knows, there just may be a Cagle list member that ties into this family. I think there are some "Cagles" not descended from Leonhart. Have a Good Evening! Tom Sunny Saegertown, PA
