Dear Debra,Miles S.Catchings was born 1877 in Laural,Ky.and Died Sept.6,1936in Ky.We think
his first wife was Lucy Wyan who was born 1877 and died one year after Pinkny's birth
in 1917.He married Louanna Morton his second wife.Miles father was Jefferson C.Catchings
born
May 17,1851 Ky.,and his mother was Mary Stanifer born
Feb 1849 Ky.Miles served in the military in 1910 he was listed in the 1910 census in
Baltimore,Maryland at Fort Howard USA Post in the Artillary Corp.Jefferson Catchings died
Feb.24,1927 Laurel,Ky.I have traced the Catchings back toWilliam Seymour Catchings born
1720 in Maryland.The Catchings Family is mentioned in a book where they leased land from
Lord Fairfax of Fairfax Virginia which is where I am from.Is there any way you can send me
your address so I can copy what I have and send it to you or can I e-mail it to you.My
e-mail address is Loveyslassie(a)aol.com.I would love to share what I have with you.If you
have any info I don't have on Miles I would like to have a copy .My husbands father
died when he was 10 and we know very little about his grandfather.
Thank you so much for you reply I look forward to hearing from you soon.I had to stop my
research for now due to low funds so I am not using the Ancestry site at the moment so it
would be better if we communicate through my e-mail address.I will continue to check my
e-mail for your replay.
Maureen Catchings of Orlando Florida.
