I wrote a book about the Post Oak community along the Lamar and Red River County line and included in the book are about 300 family histories, and among them is the Cardwell family. Please contact me for more info about the book. To help you a little more, I can tell you that Dora Cardwell was born in 1871 to a Mr. Cardwell and the former Mandy Burke. Mandy was a widow by 1880. Dora married a Warrington for a brief time, but the marriage didn't last, and she continued being known by her maiden name. A daughter was born to her in 1897, named Georgia Cardwell. Then in 1902, Dora married Jim McHam and her daughter, Georgia, lived with the McHams and was known by some as Georgia McHam. I have the books if you are interested, which has info on the McHams, the Weir family (Georgia's married name) and many others. I hope I have given you enough info to determine if these Cardwells are related to you. Johnie Lee Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
