Hello Tim
I've just picked up this message, and I hope you don't mind if I reply.
The lady in question is Sandra Frisbey. You put me in touch with her about 2
years ago as Amos Catley was married to Sophia Pickard who is in my tree.
You might recall that there is quite a mystery around them as there was an
article which you passed on to me which said that Sophia had died in the
1870s but in fact she was alive and living in Leeds in 1881 and apparently
married to John Varley, having had 4 more children with him - 2 born in USA.
I did correspond about all this with Sandra, but then she went quiet and my
last email to her went unanswered. Her address was sfrisbey(a)aol.com.
If you are able to make contact, I would be pleased to hear about it.
Regards
Trevor Wright

Subject: [CATLEY] Robert Catley (born 1690) of Garforth.
Morning Kay & Liz,
Have either of you done any more work on this Yorkshire Tree?
I ask because am obtaining detailed information concerning Warrant Officer
Charles Catley of the Royal Marine Artillery who was killed in the Battle
of Jutland 1916 as part of my campaign to ensure that the Commonwealth War
Graves Commission have all Cat*leys killed in action in both WW's
correctly listed. We already know that they got two members of the James
Catley of Barley (Hertfordshire) Tree incorrectly titled and one of them
did not even have his grave identified. Thank's to Sharon, the CWGC have
now confirmed that they will make the necessary alterations and additions.
As for Charles Catley, Royal Marine Artillery, Warrant Officer, HMS Queen
Mary (Battlecruiser), we now know that he was a member of the Robert of
Garforth Tree but from my data, it looks as if we never did find out if
there are any surviving members of this Tree here in the UK?
However I recall some correspondence with an American descendant from Amos
Catley of Leeds (Robert of Garforth Tree) and his son James Watson Catley
who emigrated to Maryland and Kansas but due to PC troubles, I have lost
her contact details.
Would like to catch up with her again, have you an e-mail address and name
please?
Regards
Tim
