Family section of Cabell County History indicates that Thomas Cartmill and Samuel Hatton both came to Big Sandy in 1790's. Says Tom's son John and "his" (John's?) son James were in Civil War. There's a James listed as AWOL in WV Archives, but claims it's probably son of John (not James Madison Cartmill). The whole clan moved to Clinton Co. MO (including John). John was the only Cartmill surname in 1870 Wayne Co. census; didn't check for Fields, Chapman, etc.
Ratliff's book on Compton says that Thomas was son of John Cartmill and Susannah Ward; also mistakenly lists Margaret as having married James Madison, but doesn't list her having a brother by that name.
