Sorry Liz,
You had lost me. You indicated that you had attached a copy of Chris' letter
but obviously this is not possible via rootsweb. The e-mail continues with
the use of the word "we" which I took to mean You and Chris hence my
assumption about Liverpool!
Hard for me to see which are your words and which are his.
I will try harder next time!
Tim

>> Hi All,
>> I have attached a copy of the letter from Chris via genesreunited.
>>
>> We have recently made some progress with Thomas Catley but have hit
>> another brick wall.
>>
>> IFHF last week released Derry archives and we found birth records for
>> Thomas Henry Catley born 17/10/1895 to Bertram Sydney Catley and Frances
>> Ann McCoach. Bertam was in the Medical Staff Corps at Ebrington
>> Barracks. They were married in Derry 12/06/1894. Bertram's father was
>> down as Thomas an Architect and Frances' as Patrick a labourer.. They
>> had another son Horace Wentworth Catley born in Fulham England in 1898.
>>
>> The 1901 records have them all living together back in Derry.
>>
>> The story goes that the two boys were deposited at the Industrial school
>> in Dublin by their mother and we have found them there on the 1911
>> census. Then into the Dublin Fusiliers and we are fine. Horace's son is
>> still alive and we are planning a trip to Liverpool to see him.
>> Interestingly he is called Thomas.
>>
>> The mother we can no longer trace, although through the Donegal website
>> we have found hers and her families earlier records.
>>
>> Bertram apparently went to USA or Canada and we have found a Bertram
>> Sydney Catley going out of Liverpool to New Brunswick in Dec 1902. There
>> the trail goes cold. The passenger list has him aged 30. Yet the 1901
>> census has him aged 31, so might not be the same guy but very
>> coincidental.
>>
>> Frances's birth record is down as Fanny for Frances.
>>
>> Did try rootsweb but didn't have any luck. Probably me.
>>
>> If this strikes any chords I would love to know more.
>>
>> What strikes me as interesting is Thomas Henry's father, Thomas was an
>> Architect. Do we have any more info on this. Or have I missed it!!!!
