Thanks Cathy. I am coming over to do some Cartmill searching next week. Might you have any suggestions as to where to look for information?

Helen, We've corresponded before about the Alexander's, but I guess we never discussed James Jr. I was waiting to see if Cathy came up with anything before answering. If you go to website listed below and look up David Alexander b ABT 1750, you'll find what I have on his father, James Jr. As you will see this David was the father of Joseph who married Mary Alden Bob Wilson http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=SHOW&db=wilson_1&recno=81 ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, October 23, 2003 8:39 AM Subject: Re: [MDCECIL] MD wills : Cathy, : How great of you to offer to do lookups.!!

Sorry, I checked Cartmill, Cartmill, Carmill, Catmill, etc and found none. These are only wills and it may be there was only a letter of administration.

Hi Cathy, I have a couple of clues to my Cartmill/Cartmell ancestors in Cecil Co. in the early 1700's, but have been unable to find anything concrete. I don't know if you have info this far back, but I would appreciate it if you could see if there is anything listed.

HI Sue, If you have not received a reply giving you an answer, perhaps the Cecil County Historical Society would be able to answer that question. I believe they have a web site too. Smiles, Mary in Alabama PS I'd be interested in that answer too. I have an old photo album(around 1865) with some pictures of circus performer.
