Earl and List: It was on the basis of these three paragraphs that NSSAR approved Ashley's membership with regard to Henry Cagle's service. An apparent reference to the use of his farm as a muster ground, in June 1776, is seen in Manly Wade Wellman's book "The Story of Moore County" (1974), pp.22-23. The text cites a "Henry Eagle" on Bear Creek, but this is most certainly a miss reading of "Henry Cagle", since there is no record of Henry Eagle having lived in this region: "Two stalwarts for the Whig cause, Philip Alston and Thomas Matthews, were commissioned colonels in the State Militia and enlisted their neighbors in armed units to scout the Deep River country for those who still dared to side with King George. Around the first of Jun, Alston Called for a muster at Henry Eagle's on Bear Creek. Mounted details went out looking for recruits, and Tory sympathizers faded away...." Henry's service during the Revolution was probably in the Militia, which gave support to the regular Continental Troops. On 19 August 1873, Henry presented a Claim to the State of North Carolina for compensation in the sum of 13 pound, 11 shillings and 4 pence for his service in the militia during the War. This can be found in Vol V, page 55, Folio 3, NC Revolutionary Army Accounts, Claim #1854, Militia, 13-11-4. Also cited are his brothers Leonard and John Cagle. I have considerably more notes on Henry Cagle, his live and descendents which I or Ashley will be happy to share with any who needs it.
