Hi Graeme,
I can confirm that the information you have is correct. Nigel and I spent
quite a bit of time going through the records at the British Libruary. Most
of the Catley's in India belong to Leonard and Charlotte's tree. Leonard was
born in England and can be traced back. He was also Charlottes second
husband. She married very young to Thomas Pratt but he died whilst she was
pregnant with their first child. This is why the name Pratt runs through the
family as a middle name. Nigel Butterfield is from this line and can give
you more information.
Regards Liz
Catley family in India.
My wife's great grandmother was Laura Violet CATLEY b 1865 in India,
and married Joshua(or Josiah) William BALLARD in 1885. They had 3
boys and 3 girls one of whom was Rubye Violet CATLEY my wife's GGrand
Mother. I don't yet know who Laura's parents were but should find out
when the LDS film of her Christening arrives for me to look at. The
information I have been given is her father was Leonard CALTEY and
mother Charlotte BUNYAN but with no sources so this needs to be confirmed.
I should probably search the archives first <bg> but thought I would
simply ask if anyone is researching this family.
Kind Regards.
