Brill Coat of Arms - is officially documented in Riestap Armorial General. The original description of the arms (shield) is as follows (translated):
Black: three silver crescents with a face, points turned to the left; each crescent is placed on a silver ring. Above the shield and helmet is the crest which is described as a black column adorned on each side with a silver crescent and surmounted by five silver feathers.
The Martin Brill Family - Martin Brill was born in Germany in 1710. About 1733, he married Anna Maria (-?-), in Germany. She was born ca. 1712. Martin arrived in America on October 22, 1754 at the port of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. His age is listed as being 44 years old. With Martin on the ship Halifax was Herman and Heinrich and Christopher.
According to the records of the Lutheran Church of Bucks County, Pennsylvania, Martin and his wife and children attended Springfield Lutheran Church from 1755-1758.
On January 11, 1759, a land warrant was issued to Martin Brill for 20 acres in Springfield Twp., at the rate of 15 pounds, ten shillings for a hundred acres. He also acquired 45 acres in Nockamixon Twp., Bucks County. A tract of 49 acres in Tenecum Twp., Bucks County was surveyed for Martin Brill on January 19, 1759 pursuant to a warrant issued January 13, 1759. This tract was located on Tenecum Creek. On April 13, 1768, 20 acres of this tract was surveyed for Michael Burger. This tract of land was called Meanwell.
Martin and his family attended Nockamixon Lutheran Church from 1766-1771. The last date in the church records for Martin is June 8, 1771.
He and his family moved to Virginia sometime before 1774. They were members of the New Jerusalem Lutheran Church in Lovettsville. Martin died in April 1791 and was buried May 1, 1791 at the New Jerusalem Church cemetery. Lovettsville, Virginia is in Loudoun County on the Potomac River.
The Brill name was spelled in various ways, Prill, Preill, Briel, Brile, Pril, Bruehl.
Martin and his wife had seven children:
- Johann Herman Brill was born in 1734. He married Catherine Barbara. He had another wife named Elizabeth who left him in 1794.

His death is recorded at the New Jerusalem Lutheran Church in Lovettsville, Parish Register 1784-1836, page 20.
The Henry Brill Family - Henry Brill was born sometime around 1740, probably in Germany. He died May 27, 1814 in Frederick County, Virginia. He came to Frederick County about 1778 from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. He bought land from Isaac Zane on September 1, 1778.

Henry's will is recorded in Winchester in Will Book #9, page 323. His inventory is recorded in Book #9 page 353 and his sale is recorded in Book #9, page 355.
In 1782, Henry had eight people in his family. In 1810, in Frederick County he had two females and three males in his family.
I believe this Henry was a brother to Herman Brill. They both came on same ship. Both came from Lancaster County to Frederick County in 1778. Their father came from Germany too.
The diary of Rev. Christian Streit shows that there was a Henry Brill at Old Furnace on October 16, 1787, and that he baptized one person there that day. Henry was elected deacon of the church on December 15, 1787. His wife's name was Catherine.
The records of Augusta County, Virginia (1745-1800) shows following: Judgement - "Chalkley Volume 2". Dated September 1792. Miles vs. Henry Brill "I Henry Brill of Heidelburg Township County of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, yeoman, bond to Miles and C. 4th June 1783. (This could be same Henry. There was a Henry Brill who married Anna Maria ---- in the town of Tulphocken Township of Heidelburg, Dauphin County. Also a Henry Brill who married Anna Maria Bickel? according to Trinity Tulpehocken Reform Church Records 1748-1864 Lebannon County Pennsylvania. They had a son Andrew who was born January 18, 1785. He was baptized on February 7, 1785 by Rev. Andrew Loretz).
Henry and Catherine Brill had six children:
- Magdalena Brill was born in 1772. She married Isaac Renner on February 16, 1796. They were bonded by Henry Brill. Magdalena is sometimes listed as Motalena. (Records from Evangelical Lutheran Church in Frederick Maryland Book 2 part 1 1762-1811 shows Henrich and Catherine Bruhl had a daughter Maria Magdalena born March 20, 1772 and baptized July 18, 1772. May be same one).
- Henry Brill (called Henry Sr. ) was born before 1765. One record shows him born in Maryland and one shows him born in Virginia. He married Elizabeth Orndorff.
- Michael Brill married Eva Foss on October 16, 1787. They were married by Christian Streit. He was born in 176? They were married at Old Furnace Frederick County. Michael bought land from Joseph Myers of Frederick County recorded Book #30 page 120. He bought land from Henry Blacker, Trust Book #30 page 122; also Alex Boyd Book #30 page 47 in 1790. He owned land along Hogue Creek on the Indian Hollow Road or Old Romney Road, now Route 679 in Frederick County. In 1810, he had four people in his family, one male and three females. The 1820 census shows one male between ages of 16 and 25; one male between ages of 26-44; one male between the age of 45+; one female between ages 10 and 15; and one female between ages of 16 and 18. (I also have a Michael Brill who married Magdaline ---- sometime before October 6, 1806. And a Michael who married Betsy (Elizabeth). This Michael was born in 1770 and died in 1853 in Guernsey County, Ohio. There was also an Elizabeth Brill in Guernsey County 1781-1856).
- Catherine Brill married John Himelright on May 15, 1792. They were married by Rev. Christian Streit.
- Elizabeth Brill married Joseph White on August 26, 1806. They were married by Rev. Chrsitian Streit. They had two children: Joseph and Betsy Ann.

The Cagle Records of Old Cumberland County, North Carolina, 1764-1784, Court of Pleas & Quarter Sessions, Minute Book F, 1784-1787
The sixth minute book of the Cumberland County Court of Pleas & Quarter Sessions, labelled Book F, begins with he court session of January 1784 and concludes with the court session of July 1787. . . . It is not indexed, but one Cagle reference does appear in the April 1784 Session of Court, when Leonard Cagle is summoned to appear as a juror. The July 1784 Session was the final term of court prior to the formation of Moore County, and after that time the court minutes of Cumberland contained no further mention of the Cagles and their neighbors, who had been taken into the new county of Moore. . . . Leonard Cagle appears as Leonard Cakel in the record. . . .
It is known from the various tax and lands records of Cumberland County that Nathan Smith, Bartholomew Dunn, John and James Morgan and James Ledlow . . . all were neighbors of the Cagles in NW Cumberland Co., in that region which would soon become Moore County. Bartholomew Dunn, in 1798, later served as a witness to the Last Will & Testament of John "Dutchman" Cagle, who died in 1799. Leonard Cakel, (i.e. Cagle), who had been a landowner in Cumberland Co. since the 1760s, continued to lived in the Cumberlad / More Co. area until about 1795, at which time he moved westward to old Montgomery (present Stanly) Co., NC.

The Cagle Records of Old Cumberland County, North Carolina, 1764-1784, The Revolutionary War Pay Voucher Records, 1780s, of Patriots John, Henry, Leonard & George Cagle
The Editor has been aware, since the 1960s, that at least three Cagles from the area of old Cumberland Co., NC received pay for their services in the American militia during the Revolutionary War. A partial typed copy of the pay voucher records which the Editor saw at that time indicated that John, Henry and Sion Cagle were those who had received payment. Recently, the Editor was able to obtain photocopies of the original Cagle references from these records, which are on file in the NC State Archives in Raleigh. . . .
Upon reviewing the photocopies of the pay voucher records, the Editor has learned that "Sion" Cagle (from the typed list of the 1960s) actually was a mis-reading of the name Leonard Cagle, which was abbreviated "Leond." on the original handwritten list. Also, it has been learned that John, Henry and Leonard Cagle each appears twice or more on the lists and the that Leonard, in addition to service in the American militia, also served a tour of duty in the Continental Army. George Cagle, as nearly as can be determined, makes a single appearance on the lists. . . .
Vol. V, p. 55, folio 3:
- 1839 John Cagle, ￡14.19.2, militia service
- 1852 Leon. Cagle ￡13.8.8, militia service
- 1854 Henry Cagle ￡13.11.4, militia service
Vol. V, p. 55, folio 4, 1871 Leonard Cagle ￡0.16.0 militia service & ￡7.10.6 continental service
Vol. V, p. 58, folio 2, 2234 John Cagle, ￡2.16.0 militia service
Vol. VI, p. 53, folio 3, 28 George Cagle, ￡9.14.4 militia service

The Cagle Records of Old Cumberland County, North Carolina, 1764-1784, the Revolutionary War Pay Voucher Records, 1780s, of Patriots John, Henry, Leonard & George Cagle
. . . The Militia soldiers served for limited periods of time, with many serving as volunteers or draftees for three-month tours of duty. Some soldiers served more than one such tour, as is evidence, for example by the Revolutionary War Pension Application of Jacob Cagle, 1755-1845 . . .
The reference to Leonard Cagle, #1871 above, shows that he served both as a militiaman and as a continental soldier. . . . Many of the rosters of the various Continental Army units have survived, but thus far the Editor has been unable to find the name of Leonard Cagle on any of the extant rosters. For many of the Continental Army units, the rosters have not survived, and it might be the case that Leonard Cagle was a soldier in one of those units.
Regarding the identity of John, Henry and Leonard Cagle, who appear in Volume V of the Pay Voucher Records, it is the belief of the Editor that they were identical to the John, Henry and Leonard who had appeared on the Cumberland County Tax Lists for the years 1777-1780 and 1783 . . .
These three men were long-time residents of the Cumberland County region, having arrived in the mid-1760s, with John Cagle settling at the forks of Bear and Cabin Creeks, and with Henry and Leonard settling on nearby Little Buffalo Creek. Judging from the known ages of their children (John and Henry's oldest children were born in mid-1750s, and Leonard's in early 1760s), it would appear they John, Henry and Leonard were born about the 1730s, or perhaps 1740s in Leonard's case, and were men at or near middle age at the time of the Revolutionary War. Leonard Cagle, who was the youngest of the three, served as a Continental soldier as well as a militiaman, although it is unknown if he was a volunteer or a draftee.
A fourth man who appeared in the records of Cumberland Co. from the late 1760s through the 1780s, George Cagle, 1740s-1825, does not appear in Volume V of the Pay Voucher Records. However, he does make an appearance in Volume VI of the Pay Voucher Records . . . George like John Cagle, lived at the forks of Bear and Cabin Creeks.
October 2001 Issue
The Cagle Records of Old Cumberland County, North Carolina, 1764-1784 The Revolutionary War Pay Voucher Records, 1780s, of Patriots John, Henry, Leonard & George Cagle
The final three references from the Revolutionary War Pay Voucher Records - for George Cagle, Volume VI, and John and Henry Cagle in Volume IX - identify them as being residents of Moore County at the time the lists were compiled. This would indicate that the lists date from July 1784 or later, since it is known that Moore County was formed in that month from the western part of old Cumberland County. However, since the service upon which the Pay Vouchers were based was performed while the Cagles still resided in Cumberland (armed hostilities in North Carolina ended in 1782), the report on these vouchers will be included in the present series on the Cagle Records of Old Cumberland.
George Cagle, 1740s-1825, does not appear in Volume V of the Pay Voucher Records, and it would appear that he did not file his claim until after the formation of Moore County in July 1784. Although oral traditions have been preserved among George's descendants that he was a soldier of the Revolution, direct proof of his involvement had not been found until his name was located in Volume VI of the Pay Voucher Records. George Calge, like John, Henry and Leonard (who appeared in the Pay Voucher Records in Volume V), appeared in many records of Old Cumberland, beginning in the late 1760s, and continuing until the formation of Moore Co. in 1784. Those records in which George appeared included the land grant records of the 1770s, by which he acquired land at the forks of Bear and Cabin Creeks, as well as the tax lists of 1777-80 and 1783.
George Cagle, after the formation of Moore County in 1784, continued to live in that county for at least five more years, but by the early 1790s had sold his property in Moore and migrated westward to the west end of old Montgomery County, NC (present Stanly Co.), where he made his final home, and where he died in 1825. About 1795, George was joined in old Montgomery County by Leonard Cagle, who appeared twice on the Pay Voucher Records in Volume V . . . However, the other men who appeared with Leonard in that volume, John and Henry Cagle, remained permanently in Moore County, and died there in 1799 and 1802.
George Cagle, for his service in the militia during the war, received the sum of 9 pounds, 14 shillings and 4 pence . . .
May 2001 Issue
The Cagle Records of Old Cumberland County, North Carolina, 1764-1784 the Revolutionary War Pay Voucher Records, 1780s, of Patriots John, Henry, Leonard & George Cagle
Henry Cagle appears once in Volume IX, on page 8, folio 3 . . . As with his previous appearance in Volume V, Henry is found in the middle of a large group of names from the Cumberland/Moore Co. area, which would suggest that the lists were assembled from a number of shorter lists, created in the various counties of the state.
John Cagle also appears once in Volume IX, on page 108, folio 4 . . . In the margin of the page on which the name John Cagle appears, the name of William Scoggin, Sheriff of Moore County, is written, which would seem to indicate that he was the local official who either compiled or validated the list. John Cagle, like Henry, appears in the middle of another group of familiar names from the Cumberland / Moore County area.
It might also be noted that the amount of pay which is listed beside the names of Henry and John Cagle (￡13.11.4 for Henry, and ￡14.19.2 for John) is identical in each case to the amount listed is their first appearance in the records, in Volume V. The reason for this is not entirely clear, but it might suggest that they had not received their pay due them from the lists in Volume V, and were making a second attempt to collect. If this was the case, it might be speculated that they filed new claims after the formation of Moore County in July 1784, since it would appear that their inclusion in the new county of Moore had placed them in the district of the Hillsborough Treasury Office, whereas they were under the Wilmington Treasury Office while residents of old Cumberland County.
Leonard Cagle, who appeared with Henry and John on the lists in Volume V, does not seem to appear on the lists in Volume IX, and it is possible that he had already received his payment by the time the lists in Volume IX were assembled.
December 2001 Issue
The Cagle Records of of Old Cumberland County, North Carolina, 1764-1784 the Revolutionary War Pay Voucher Records, 1780s, of Patriots John, Henry, Leonard & George Cagle
In this series on the Cagle references in the Revolutionary War Pay Voucher Records of the late 1780s, from Cumberland/Moore Co., NC, it has been established that at least four Cagles - John, Henry, Leonard and George - are found in the records. . . . It has also been suggested, by the present Editor, that these were the same four men who began to appear in the records of old Cumberland Co., NC in the middle and late 1760s, and who, during the Revolutionary War, appeared on the Tax LIsts of Cumberland County in 1777-80 and 1783. If this is correct, these four men can be identified as John "Dutchman" Cagle, d. 1799, Henry Cagle, d. 1802, Leonard Cagle d. 1800s/1810s and George Cagle, d. 1825, the former two of which remained permanently in Moore County, and the latter two of which migrated to Montgomery (present Stanly) Co., NC in the 1790-95 era, after the close of the Revolutionary War. Two contemporaries of these Cagles - David Cagle, 1728-1780s, and Charles Cagle, d. 1801 - had lived near them in Cumberland Co. in the 1760s but by 1769/70 had migrated to Mecklenburg (present Cabarrus) Co., NC where they lived during the war.
David Cagle, 1728-1780s, who is thought to have been the oldest of the Cagle brothers of North Carolina, was 50 years old in 1778, at the middle of the Revolutionary War period, and may have been exempt from service due to age. David also was the owner of Cagle's Mill, on the Rocky River in Mecklenburg Co., and also could have received an exemption from service as a miller. At any rate, no record has been found of service for David in the conflict, and it is assumed that he was not a Revolutionary soldier. Charles Cagle, who was perhaps born in the 1740s, was of military age during the War . . . Charles, early in the Revolutionary conflict, was drafted to serve in the American militia from Mecklenburg County, but hired a substitute, Andrew Stow, to serve in his place. Thus far, no additional reference has been found to Charles in the Revolutionary War records, including the Pay Voucher Records, and it seems possible that he never saw active service during the War.
It might also be noted, at this juncture, that two other men who are known or believed to have served in the Revolution - Jacob Cagle, 1755-1845, and Roger Cagle, 1760s-1840s - seem to be missing from the Pay Voucher Records, even though their names might be expected to appear within those pages. The reason for their absence is unclear, although it might be supposed that, for reasons unknown, they might not have requested payment for their services.
The record of Jacob Cagle, 1755-1845, as a soldier of the Revolution is well known . . . According to his 1834 pension application, which was successful and for which he drew a pension until his death in 1845, he served two tours of duty as a militiaman in the American forces. His first tour came while he was a resident of Mecklenburg (present Cabarrus) County, NC, and his second tour came while he was a resident of Cumberland County, having moved from the former county to the latter in 1781. In each of his tours, he served three months or more, and was honorably discharged. After the War, he continued to live in the Cumberland/Moore County area until 1800, at which time he moved back to Mecklenburg County. Thus it is known that he was a resident of Cumberland/Moore during the mid-1780s when the Pay Voucher Records were being assembled in the several volumes which bear the names of John, Henry, Leonard and George Cagle. Unless the name of Jacob Cagle has been overlooked, it would appear that he is not listed in the Pay Voucher records. One possible reason for his absence might be that he had already received pay for his services prior to the assembling of the lists. If not, he apparently declined or neglected, for reasons unknown, to have his name added to the list. [North Carolina State Archives Treasurer & Comptroller Revolution War Pay Vouchers - indicates that only men with outstanding pay balances would have been issued a pay voucher] Regarding Jacob's ancestry, it is generally believed that he was a son of David Cagle 1728-1780s of Mecklenburg Co., NC although it is the opinion of some Cagle researchers that he was the oldest son of John "Dutchman" Cagle, d. 1799, of Moore Co., NC.
Roger Cagle, 1760s-1840s, the other presumed Revolutionary soldier who is absent from the Pay Voucher List, was the oldest son of Leonard Cagle, the militiaman and Continental soldier who appears on the list in Volume V. Roger Cagle grew to adulthood in Cumberland County, NC and is believed to have resided in Cumberland throughout the Revolutionary period. He appeared in the 1790 census in Moore Co., NC and in 1794 migrated to the state of Georgia, and in the early 1800s moved next to Missouri, then to Louisiana and finally to southern Mississippi. In the last-named state, he settled by the 1820s in Copiah Co., where it is believed that he lived near the community of Pine Bluff until his death in the 1840s.
Cagle Residents of Old Cumberland County, NC Still Alive in 1850
