JOSEPH CANTRILL was born about 1695 in Philadelphia, Pa., and spent his
early boyhood in that city. They were living in New Castle county, Pa.,
on or near the site of the present city of Wilmington, Del., and were
attendants at Holy Trinity (Old Swedes) Church before 1720. it is
probable that Catharina was a daughter of one of the Old Swedes, first
settlers of this section, but wecould not verify this. Their first three
children were baptized at the old historic church still used and known as
Old Swedes, which is one of the oldestand quaintest churches in this
country. Christina parish was mostly situatedon both sides of Christina
creek, partly on both sides of Brandywine creek in New Castle county, and
in the Hundreds of New Castle, Christina and Brandywine. it stretched two
Swedish miles in length and one in breadth. The most remote families of
the parish were not more than six and a half English miles distant from
the church. The city of Wilmington is built on the Swedish "church land"
and the charter for the town was granted in 1735. At the time Joseph
Cantrill went there it was known as Christina. Many of the earliest
recordsof this locality have been lost, or destroyed, and at best are
very incomplete. There is evidence, however, from the scattered records
in New Castle county to-day, that descendants of Richard Cantrill lived
there from before 1720until 1797, though the majority moved south during
this period.
