I have checked, using Ancestry.com's search engine, the marraige records of Cartlegde
and Catledge familes in Miss. but have been unsuccessful in locating the names mentioned
here. I am trying to trace the Chicago branch of the Catledge family to discover how this
branch fits into the family tree of the Miss. Catledges. From what I understand, the oral
history of the Catledge family recounts a legend of two brothers who shared the Catledge
name. They argued and parted, one of the brothers took the spelling of his name
'Cattledge' and the other took the spelling 'Catledge'. It is said that
the Catledges of Chicago came from Houston, Miss., if that is any help. Has anyone got any
information on the this branch of the family?
