Married Hannah S Carpenter in Athens county, Ohio, on December 3, 1837.
From "Athens Home Coming," Athens, Ohio, 1904. (out of copyright).
"James Ransom Cable was born at Amesville, in December 1814, and lived at or near Athens all his life. In his younger years he taught school and afterwards became a farmer in the broadest and best sense of the word, not a plodder, but realizing in some degree the wonderful possibilities of that avocation. He was a buyer and shipper of cattle and hogs. His estimate of weight and values was unusually accurate, so his services as a land appraiser were often in demand. He died at Athens, November 17, 1879."
