  • According to the D.A.R., there appears to be some question as to William Cantwell's children. Future applicants to the organization have to re-prove their descent from William Cantwell and Margaret Obrien as their alleged descendants may actually be decendants of Thomas Cantwell, and not William and Margaret.
