FAMILY OF JOHN CARDWELL
Perrin Cardwell - oldest son of John Cardwell and Keziah Lowe. Born around 1744 in Cumberland County, Virginia. Settled in the Yadkin River Valley Wilderness of North Carolina by 1767. Did not apply for Revolutionary War pension, but is listed in the ranks of the militia that fought at the Battle of King's Mountain. He was under the command of Col. Benjamin Cleveland. Perrin settled in Wilkes County, North Carolina after the war and then migrated to Adair County, Kentucky around 1801. Details in John Cardwell (1715-1795) by Rand Cardwell.
Thomas L. Cardwell - son of John Cardwell and Keziah Lowe. Born on September 1, 1745 in Cumberland County, Virginia. Lived in the Wilkes County, NC / Patrick County, VA area. His descendants claim that he served in the Revolutionary War with a brother, but no confirmation has been established. It is possible that he served with his older brother, Perrin Cardwell, in the North Carolina Militia. Details in John Cardwell (1715-1795) by Rand Cardwell.
John Cardwell, Jr. - son of John Cardwell and Keziah Lowe. Born in 1748 in either Goochland or Cumberland County, Virginia.

This land grant as a reward for his three years service in the Virginia Line during the Revolutionary War." Details in John Cardwell (1715-1795) by Rand Cardwell. Some researchers have confused the Revolutionary War service of this John Cardwell with John Cardwell of Claiborne County, Tennessee.

NEW ENGLAND CARDWELLS
William Cardwell - son of William Cardwell and Elizabeth Burch - Resided in New London County, Connecticut. He served in Capt. Waterman’s Company of the 20th Regiment under Col. Samuel Abbott. William filed for a pension, but I’ve yet to review a copy of those records. Click here for an article on the New England Cardwell branch..
Simon Cardwell - ancestry undetermined - Resided in Stonington, Connecticut. He served in the Connecticut Line in the Eldridge Company. Simon enlisted on 20 February 1776 and was discharged on 20 February 1780. There exists the possibility that Simon might have moved to Georgia and is the founder of the majority of the Georgia and Alabama Cardwell Lines. This might be solved if we can find any individuals from the New England branch to take part in the Cardwell DNA Project. No additional information.
Reubin Cardwell - ancestry undetermined - He served in Capt. Roger Welles’ Company. No additional information.
UNKNOWN CARDWELL
William Cardwell - ancestry undetermined - Resided in Culpepper County, VA at time of enlistment. Revolutionary War Pension Application #W.8590. See account at the Battle of Camden website. William moved to Kentucky after the war and lived until his death in 1838. I have a substantial amount of information on him, but have been unable to link him to the Thomas Cardwell/Martha Perrin branch. I currently feel that he descends from the King & Queen County, Virginia Cardwell families. William might be the brother of Lewis Cardwell, veteran of the Rev. War. Click here for an article on this branch. More research is needed.
Lewis Cardwell - ancestry undetermined - Resided in Virginia. Might be the brother of William Cardwell of Culpepper Co., VA and Bullitt Co., KY.
