Nancy Jane, This sounds very interesting to me, as for some time I ave been persuing a hunch that Tabitha father was a John Cagle and this on fits in age, time and area. How can we get this data together as you suggest. Do you have futher information on either of his two wives? If he was indeed tabitha father then his first wife would most likey be her mother as she was born in Sept of 1822. Dr Bob!
