| Notes |
- William lived in Prince Frederick Parish and later in St. Mark’s. Richard Middleton in his will, written 19 Feb. 1749-50, leaves his estate under the care of William Cantey and John Cante; William Cantey, Richard Richardson and William Scott are appointed executors in the will of John Scott, 1751; on 3 Aug 1754, William Cantey, Josiah Cantey and Samuel Bacot were witnesses for John Cantey. It is extremely probable that he is the William Cantey who was the commissioner for St. Mark’s Parish in 1757, with Richard Richardson, Joseph Cante, John Cantey and others; and who, with John Cantey, was a Captain in Colonel Richardson’s regiment in Lyttletons campaign against the Cherokees in the winter of 1759-60; and it is possible that he is the “William Cantey, seniior,” the inventory of whoe estate was filed at Camden, 7 Feb. 1787. (Issue is as far as known; Register of Prince Frederick’s Parish). [1]
