Sharon Louisa Cantrall

Sharon Louisa Cantrall January 18, 1939 July 27, 2010 After a courageous 10-year battle with breast cancer, Sharon Louisa Cantrall died peacefully on July 27, 2010 at Ukiah Valley Medical Center. Sharon was born January 18, 1939 in Grants Pass, Oregon, second daughter to Emmett Wesley Cantrall, DVM and Zelma C.

WELCOME to my CANTRALL Web Site!

The following pages are the research of Sharon Louisa Cantrall. The family tree names Cantrall, Brooks, Beebe, McGinnis, Newlin, Piatt, Petersen and Post. Please come in and look around.  

YES, I am descended from RICHARD and DOROTHY (JONES) CANTRIL.  As far as I know, "my" CANTRALL line has not been thoroughly  documented.  I owe much thanks to my three Cousins who have been researching with me all of these years.  I will always be in debt to our FAMILY HISTORIAN, Warren G. Cantrell, who has donated so much of his time and research to helping with this line.

I am not an expert in genealogy and this material is subject to change by me at any time.  I strive always for good documentation and verification ...
