addendum:-
somehow I managed to send this part finished email rather than save it!
What is missing of course is the request for any Lister doing Canadian research to see if
they can identify this clutch of Cat*leys and hopefully nett them into a known defined
Tree?

Subject: Canadian Cat*ley research
I have been asked to assist a non Lister in Canada to find out a bit about her Cat*ley
roots because she knows almost nothing about her paternal past other than there were two
Cat*ley brothers who left the UK for that Region.
All she has:- is that her father was a William Edwin Cattley born Ontario in 1909 with
brothers Jack and Claude and a Great Uncle: Eardley Cattley.
My dips into the IGI fail to reveal William Edwin/Jack/Claude which I think is probably
due to being "too recent" in IGI terms; however I see an Eardley Catley as on
the 1881 Census as being born in 1858 in Nova Scotia; address as St Johns Ward, Toronto,
York.
There are a number of IGI ref's to individuals in N?Scotia in the 1850's
