There were two lines of Cecils in early Colonial Maryland, the Catholic Cecils of St. Mary's County, and the Protestant Cecils of Prince George's County, descendants of William Cecil. It is unknown where he was born, most likely in either Pennsylvania or possibly in Virginia. His wife's name is unknown. He was the father of three children, John, Phillip, and Susannah.
