    Notes 
    • Wyatt Williamson and Martha Williams Cagle were married in 1890. Raleigh Cagle was born out of wedlock in 1858 many years prior to their marriage. Martha listed her parents as William and Mary Williams in 1890. This would lead me to believe that Martha was married to a Cagle after 1850 and prior to Raleigh's birth in 1858. The Cagle likely died sometime between 1850-1858. Martha and Raleigh can be found next door to Wyatt Williamson in the 1860 Census and then with Wyatt in the 1870 and 1880 Census. They were married three years prior to Wyatt's death in 1893.
