To those of you new to the Cagle list, these issues have been discussed many times before. We at one time discussed how German names were changed over a period of time, once these people settled in America. To start with many were illiterate and there for couldn't even spell their own surname. If your name was Kegel, and someone in a record spelled it in a different way, you were none the wiser. First names were changed as well such as Johan to John, Leonhart to Leonard. We had discussed how Dewalt , may have became David. I don't remember what we determined the name Theobald, to be. When this list was started about six years ago there weren't as many resources on the Internet as there are now. I think with some research on the Internet we can determine what some German first names became in America. There are still people living today in America and Germany with the surname Kegel, and I have seen Cagley as a surname. I don't know if all of these surnames started out as Kegel, and then changed into a few similar surnames. It is still open to debate as to who all were children of Leonhart Kegel, our immigrant ancestor. Keep in mind however that he was born abt. 1684, may have started fathering children as young as seventeen. He may also have continued to have children into his late 60's or early 70's. Also we know he was married more than once, added to the fact that many early records are very sparse.
