Hi all.
I'm very impressed with all of the research some of you have done. I would
like to go back to Tennessee with my CATLETT family, but haven't yet been
able to do so.
My Catletts were born in Ohio and moved to Missouri along the way. I have a
"John Catlett" who was born in Ohio in about 1837 or so and I believe he had
a few brothers and that they were orphans. The 1850 Seneca Township, Monroe
County, Ohio census has what I believe to be Catlett brothers living in
various households. My John Catlett was 12 years old in the 1850 census and
is listed as a "boarder" in the John Goodhart family. There is also a
Henry Catlett, aged 10, living with another non Catlett family in the same
township (Seneca) which only has 18 families in it (according to an Ohio
researcher) so I think it's a pretty good guess that they were brothers,
however Henry is listed as being born in IN not OH.
I'm looking for whatever happened to John's parents and who they were. I
have traced John's descendants all the way to me and it is fairly well
documented (I think). I'd like to hook up with other Catlett researchers
who are in Ohio around that time - perhaps there is a connection to the
farther back TN Catlett's.
Any help (and believe much has been given to me) would be appreciated.
