In 1803 Stephen, Abraham and Moses administered upon the estate of their father, John Cantrill, in Spartanburg County, South Carolina. He had several children, but we could only learn the names of five of his sons, and could not learn his wife's name." (THE CANTRILL - CANTRELL GENEALOGY, 1908, by Susan Cantrill Christie, page 64.)
