 This is a question for Peggasus. My name is Debbie Cantrell Cunningham and I live in the U.S. Daniel Pegge who you mentioned in your post (copied below in "") married the sister of my great (9 times) grandmother Dorothy Jones Cantrill , her name was Barbara Jones. I am looking for the father of my great (9 times) grandfather Richard Cantrill who came here to Philadelphia in 1682/1683. You don't happen to have any info on Richard, do you? I know it's a long shot but you never know when an answer to your questions are going to show up. Thank you!                                                                     
"I've got Pegg/Pegge records going back to 1327, mostly around Loughboruogh up to 1508 then most clear records come from the branch at Shirley near Ashbourne. The family crypt is there. That family is the root of the Pegges of Beauchief Abbey and the Catherine Pegge who had two children by Charles II.

There are other lines which stayed in the Leicester/Nottingham/Derby area, and one group in North Norfolk back to the 1500's. I recently found one solitary John Pegg in Burgh, Cumberland in 1336. I have the hearth tax and muster roll records of the Pegges in Derbyshire in the 1600's.

I have also located 2 Pegges in Lincolnshire which is assumed to be the origin of Daniel Pegge the Quaker who established the principal US branch in Philadelphia 1680-i"

Hi, My name is Debbie and I live in the U.S. I am looking for any information on Richard Cantrell, his will was recorded August 9, 1669 in Wetton, Staffordshire, England. Looking for spouse and children of this Richard. Any information will be greatly appreciated!

Thank You,
Debbie

I looked at the info on Family Search and I don't think that is the Joseph I am looking for, but he could have been married more than once.

The record of baptism 26 Oct 1686 in Ashbourne, father Joseph Abode Compton. Joseph Cantrell would have been 54 years old when this child was born. There are several variations of spelling for Cantrell but I have never seen it spelled as Compton. Does the FreeREG have a website?

I do not live in England, I live in U.S. so it makes searching in England more challenging. Why are Bakewell records so hard to find?

Looking for any information on Joseph Cantrell born May 13, 1632 at Bakewell and buried September 15, 1696 at Bakewell. He was the son of Richard Cantrell born about 1600 and Anna Houston who married 1628 in Bakewell. Looking for Joseph's wife, children, will, etc. Any information will be appreciated.

Thank You,
Debbie
