Charles, the patriarch of the Cantonwine family, immigrated to America from Prussia in 1806, arriving in Philadelphia, Penn., aboard the ship Orlando. The ship's passenger list shows "Chr. Kuntentwine, single man." The name Kuntentwine later evolved to Cantonwine, and Charles appears to be the only surnamed Kuntentwine/Cantonwine to immigrate to America. Eight or so years after his arrival in Philadelphia, in about 1814, Charles married Mary Magdalena Scholl, daughter of Charles Jacob & Margaret (Fuhr) Scholl, in Bedford county, Pennsylvania.
Nancy Ellen married Thaddeus Bascom Duckett, son of James Lowery Duckett and Sarah Caroline "Sallie" (McCracken) Duckett, December 29, 1879 in Centerville, Chaffee County, CO. They had three children, two of whom died in infancy (Jakey and Charlie). Their daughter, Sarah Christena "Tena" Duckett, married George Albert Corn.
