Dear All,
Just to let you know that a small bit of Cat*ley history was made today when Kay Heath,
John Catley and myself all met up in Shrewsbury, Shropshire.
This has just got to be the first time that Cat*leys from three different trees have ever
met up together by arrangement.
Kay was en route to The Borthwick Institute in Yorkshire to see about trying to trace her
paternal Catley roots there and had suggested that we all meet up.
Don't worry Erica, yes photos of the occasion were taken and no doubt Kay will send
them out when she gets back to Aussie!
We spent three very pleasant hours together discussing our Lincolnshire/Yorkshire roots
and vowed that we would all meet up again at some time in the future where it was hoped
that maybe we could expand the scene by extending the invitations to members of other
Cat*ley trees as well?
Kay thought it would perhaps be worthwhile considering a get together near the site of the
Catley Priory which is near Walcott.
No doubt she will have more to say about it all when she next writes in.
Regards Tim
