Subject: {not a subscriber} Catchings I Can't ID
Opps! I'm sending this AGAIN as my copy was not sent correctly.
I am NOT
sending the photo.

Help! Can anyone out there help me to place this family within the
context of my
family? I am descended from the Catchings of Bastrop County,
TX.
These Catchings are buried in the same plot as my other Catchings
descendants in
the Old Red Rock Cemetery in Bastrop Co., TX. however I have
been unable to "connect them".
One headstone reads: Ben F. Catchings 5/23/1845 02/28/1917; another
reads: Betty
Catchings 9/15/1845 12/20/1912; another; James F. Catchings
9/12/1883 03/29/1904 Son of BF and Betty; and the last headstone reads:
Millie A. Riddles 2/27/1873 3/13/1892 Dau of B.F. & Betty Catchings.
I'd like to know who the father of Ben F. Catchings was and/or his
siblings.
There are other Benjamin Catchings and B.F. Catchings in the
family but none seem to match up with this person. Any ideas??
Thanks!
