Hi,
About 20 years ago I began researching my John Cadwell-Mary Keyes family history.I discovered a lady who was also researching the line.She lived in Delaware at that time but I have not heard from her in many years.She went to the court houses in the counties where our Cadwells lived.She felt that John Cadwell, b. before 1755 was the son of James Cadwell Sr. of Moore Co. NC.He was listed on a tax record in 1767 in Cumberland Co. NC.This area was later in Moore Co. NC.According to land, court and marriage records James Cadwell Sr. lived near McClendons Creek and Richland Creek.The names of these other Cadwells were listed in that same area and we believe they were the children of James Cadwell Sr.The name Cadwell was used interchangeably with Caddell, Caddle, etc.We have determined that James had the following children:
1.Jonathan Cadwell
2.William Cadwell
3.James Cadwell Jr.
4.John Cadwell, b. before 1755, He married Mary Keyes in Nov of 1785 Moore Co. NC.He d. ?He was in the battle of Kings Mountain according to a biography on John Wesley Cadwell, s/o Daniel who died in Fayette Co. TX.
5.Polly Cadwell b. ? d. before Aug. 1826 Moore Co. NY m. John Marston Glasscock.
6.Benjamin Cadwell
7.Daniel Cadwell b. 1763 NC (still alive in 1850 Moore Co. NC)

The children of John Cadwell and Mary Keyes are as follows:
1.William Cadwell, born 25 Sep 1787 NC d. 14 Dec 1852 Pike Co. IL. m. Elizabeth McFarland (13 July 1817) Christian Co. KY
2.son Cadwell ?
3.Daniel Cadwell, born 1793 NC d. 5 Mar 1864 Fayette Co. TX. m. 1. Matilda Isom, d/o Gabriel (25 July 1822) Christian Co. KY. 2. Elizabeth McNairy (6 Aug 1833) Pike Co. IL
4.Moses Cadwell, born 1796 NC d. 11 Sep 1874 Shelby Co. MO. m. Mary Ann Ware Kesterson (23 Feb 1819) Christian Co. KY. d/o George Kesterson and Lettice Baker.
5.John G. Cadwell, born 1799 SC d. Fayette Co. TX m. 1. Sarah Cowden (7 Sep 1836) Pike Co. IL 2. ? 3. Sarah Shingles Johnson (23 Apr 1867) Fayette Co. TX

9.Sally Cadwell, born bet. 1800-1810 KY d. ? m. William Grimes (25 Apr 1833) Pike Co. IL
10.Joshua Cadwell, b. ? d ? m ? (listed in land records in Hardeman Co. TN)
John Cadwell-(1800)-Pend Dist SC census p.116(22001-20010)
John Cardwell-(1810)Christian Co. KY (1810)(11301-31010)
John Cadwell-(1820) Christian Co. KY census (011211-01101) William Cadwell-(1820) Christian Co. KY census (100010-00100) (According to this, John has 5 other males besides himself and 2 other females besides his wife in his HH in 1820 and Wm. is already married).
I descend from Moses Cadwell and Mary Ann Kesterson, d/o George Kesterson and Lettice Baker through their daughter, Sarah Ann b. 1833 Ky who married George Phillips in Pike Co. IL.
John Cadwell was mentioned as a neighbor of Meshack Green in his will dated in 1799 Pend. Dist. SC.
Good luck in your Cadwell research.We have never discovered who the parents of James Cadwell Sr. were.We wondered if he connected to the CT Cadwells.A William Cadwell came into VA also but we have no info.
