Tim and others:
In case this helps.
One Charles William Catley born on 7/23/1915 in Pittsburgh was my uncle. I can confirm his
year of birth as 1915. He passed away in July/2000 at the age of 85.
My father was Harold Edwin Catley, who also has passed away (12/26/2006) at the age of 81,
was born on 8/3/1925. The Charles mentioned above was my dad's older (only) brother.
There were 3 sisters as well, Olive, Mabel, and Clover, all in between Charles and Harold
in age. I don't have their birthdays but could get them easily if desired.
I can't shed any light on the Aliquippa Catleys except to say that I know they existed
in the Aliquippa area, and that Aliquippa was in fact a suburb of Pittsburgh. I have
forwarded the email to my mom via my sister and may have more info soon.
The Charles William Catley who was my uncle, had 2 daughters Bonnie (resides in a suburb
of Indianapolis, Indiana) and Bethany (still in the Pittsburgh area).
Hope all is well across the pond!!

Subject: [CATLEY] Charles William Catley b 27/11/1925
Pennsylvania USA :- There are three known Catley trees with emigration connections to
this State, all either miners or steel/iron workers looking for better times in this
expanding Country.
1) Robert of Garforth (Yorkshire)
2) Edmund of Bilton (Yorkshire)
3) Emery of Midsomer Norton (Somerset)
The names Charles William Catley comes up on numerous generations of the Garforth tree
which includes their branch which emigrated to PA but no dates of birth seem to fit with
the above, although there is a close match being a Charles William Catley b 09/01/1924
Pittsburgh? however, he is seemingly not the same person as Charles William Catley b
27/11/1925 in Aliquippa PA.
There is a website (created in 2000) for the Edlebrock family where the author's
contact address no longer work's, which gives the genealogy of his tree member Dolores
Mary Edlebrock m said Charles William Catley in Seattle WA.USA 13/01/1946 and there are
another three generations of Catley indicated thereon.
It may be that it is a simple mismatch of birth in 1924 on one side and baptism in 1925
for one and the same person, it is either that, or, another PA Catley tree that is
currently unknown here.
Can anybody identify the Catley line that Chas Wm b 27/11/1925 comes from please?
Tim
