Actually, the thanks should go to a number of people, but primarily John G Cagle, Nancy Jane Balmer, Doyle Chambers, David, Earl and LaMona who have been most helpful with providing information to newbies. Nearly all the information I have on George Cagle, I gathered from Journals and other publishings of John G. Cagle and the internet. I merely put it into chronological order in my notes section of George's family page of my software. So, the actual research was done by someone else as is the case with most of the information I have colated and included in my notes. I am attempting to complete the descendents of Leonard Cagle, b. 1683. I know this is a monumental task, but I am well on my way. It is not my intent to write a book nor any other commercial purpose. I know there will be errors, but this is just a guide to help you and other beginners get a foothold on your ancestry just as others helped me with mine. Besides, it's fun!!
