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.
Harold was the oldest of the five children of Harry and Emma (Danburg) Cantonwine. His younger siblings were Lula, Guy, Charles R. and Paul Everett Cantonwine.
Harold married twice. His first wife was Darlene (Simpson) Cantonwine. One daughter, Verla, was born to them. Harold later married Evelyn (Newland) Cantonwine. They had two daughters, Wanda and Judith.
