In the 1861 census, Edward Catley is a 35 year old Gas Works Superintendant living in
Southgate, near Edmonton with wife Louisa and children Albert E born Elstree, Herts age 8
and Lydia age 6 born Southgate. He gives his origin as Somerset whilst Louisa comes from
Newbury.
His place of origin in Somerset is unreadable but ends in ...combe.
Have not yet managed to find any further reference to Edward et al other than IGI which
quotes the ' 61 census and suggests that he was born in 1826 in Balcombe. Somerset.
Can not find a Balcombe in Somerset (there is one in Hants) and wonder if the place is
meant to be Batcombe instead? We have researched and established four Somerset trees that
I know of but none as yet, look to support this Edward.
Anyone else come across Edward and family?
