Abner Cantrell & Amanda E. Pritt were married 15 Mar 1861 by Wm. S. Breedon in Kanawha County, VA/WV. According to marriage records, Abner, was born circa 1838 in Greenbrier County, VA/WV to Christopher & Betsey A. Cantrell. The same record indicates that Amanda was born circa 1832 in Monroe County to James Andrew Pritt & Esther Robertson. In the 1870 Kanawha County Census we find Abner "Canterill" as HOH. He is living without Amanda, who had died in 1869. The house is recorded as follows: 267-267 Abner CANTERILL 26 VA Farmer James 8 VA Robert 5 WV Albert 2 WV William 17 VA Margaret PRITT 20 VA Franklin PRITT 14 VA James, Robert & Albert are sons of Abner Cantrell & Amanda Pritt. I am trying to figure out William Cantrell's relationship to Abner. I suppose that he is Abner Cantrell's younger brother, cousin or nephew. Margaret Pritt is the sister of Amanda Pritt Cantrell. I do not know Franklin Pritt. The Abner "Canterill" household is next door to: 268-268 Easter PRITT 55 VA Martha 21 VA Andrew 19 VA Harry 15 VA This is the home of Ester/Esther/Easter PRITT, the mother of sisters Margaret Pritt & Amanda Cantrell Pritt. Does anyone know the relationship of William Cantrell & Abner? Or the ancestry of Christopher & Betsey Cantrell of Greenbrier County? Thank you in advance for any information or guidance. I look forward to hearing from you & learning more about this very elusive family. Sincerely, Mike Peters npeters102@aol.com
