Disputed Origins

http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Cagle-606

The merge of Cagle-1062 and Cagle-122 discarded the birth date of 1723-1725. George couldn’t have lived from 1723 to 1825. The George Cagle gravestone that has a death year of 1825 also says he died in his 75th year. Some DNA research has been done, which indicates George could actually be a grandson, not son, of Leonard. See: Moore County DNA, compiled by Morgan Jackson < Moore County DNA https://moorecountywallaces.com/histories/MooreCountyDNA.pdf> As far as immigration records, just Leonard/Lenart is mentioned.

It was thought at one time among Cagle researchers that George was the oldest son of "David" Kegel/Cagle, b. 1728, but more recent research seems to suggest he is more likely the youngest brother of David. “If George was born close to 1740, he was probably the child of “Old" Leonard. On the other hand, a 1750 birth for George would allow him to be considered the son of David who was born in 1728. On the whole, it appears that George might be a little old to be the son of David. For that reason and the migration patters of George, until proven differently, I think George was a brother to David. My 2 cents worth, David.”

The only clue to contents of the George Cagle estate comes from a brief mention in the Benjamin Cagle letter of 1826. The following letter was sent by Benjamin Cagle 1774-1843 of Montgomery Co., NC, to his brother David Cagle and his sister Elizabeth Cagle Hagler, wife of Jacob Hagler, all of Henry Co., GA. The impression given is Benjamin's letter was enclosed with the letter from his mother, Rebecca (see notes on Rebecca). The text of Benjamin's letter, which deals largely with the settlement of his deceased father's estate, reads asfollow:

Brothers and Sisters and families:

"I write these few lines to you to let you know that we are all well at this time but has been very sickly this fall. We lost one of the family this fall he was about two years old a black boy. The above is sufficient for you to read and now I come to write you how Father's concerns stands. He left one horse, two cows, and all household furniture to Mother and all the rest to be equally divided except twenty dollars over and above to Robert and I and George. I expect to be ready by next October to make settlement with the Legatees and I should be glad that you could come out then as the amount of the sale was only one hundred fifty one or two dollars. I understand that Jacob Hagler and Elizabeth is a coming out here this winter but I want them to come next fall as he wrote to send him word whether or not there was any critters left for him. No there is none but one and that is left to mother.

"So no more at present but remain your affectionate brother until death.

“Benjamin Cagle," To Mr. David Cagle, State of Georgia Henry County and Elizabeth Hagler. (Note the word "creter" may mean "Critter or Creature" i.e., animal.) The person who is referred to as "father" in Benjamin's letter obviouslywas George Cagle, who had died in 1825.
