    I'm interested in your information about the Cardwell line. Are you still posting? Your blog is fascinating! How do you connect the England Cardwells with the Virginia Cardwell?

COMING TO AMERICA ~ Indentured Servant

MARTHA HAMILTON ALLISON My 5th Great Grandmother Born 1731(+/-3yrs) Ireland ~ Died 1838(+/-?) Orange County, North Carolina  A descendant of the Plantation of Ulster, Martha was born in Antrim County, Ireland around 1731. In 1746 (one source says she was around 13 years of age) she sailed for America as an indentured servant aboard the ship Rundell ; this was likely due to the famine of 1740-41, in which an estimated 400,000 died in Ireland. The typical arrangement for indenture was to agree to be 'sold' for a four year term upon arrival in America; ship's passage was paid after the fact by the person purchasing the indentured servant, and the term was typically viewed as an opportunity to gradually acclimate to the new culture in the company of one's fellow countrymen.  The following is from Michael Tepper's  'Emigrants To Pennsylvania ,  1641-1819' (1975, Genealogical Publishing Co. Inc., Baltimore MD):  "October 4th. Jam
