Hi Jocelyn,
yes, that was the stuff that John sent me, and I couldn't see it on the
Catley Page,
so it might be good to include it. That book has to be by him. You might
find that
if it wasn't published too long ago, the publisher will know where to find
him.

Hi there David,
I happened to be in the Wellington Public Library the other day and got
sidetracked into doing an author search of Catley. The search threw up an
entry for John Catley titled "Jean Scott McIsaac and Dixon Catley - A
family history" 1984. Is this the John Catley there have been a few emails
about ??
Regardless of the answer to this, going by my scribblings on a scrap of
paper, Dixon Catley is descended from family living in a "cluster of
villages on the north Lincoln Wold - Broughton and Nettleton". He arrived
In NZ at Port Chambers (Dunedin) on 24/5/1874. Later he moved to Blenheim
(top of the South Island) The earliest names John has listed are William
Catley and Elizabeth Ranns m 13/5/1771, Great Limber, Lincolnshire. I
think
John Catley was born in 1953. The booklet has lots of family members
listed
as well as photos. One of these people is Has(well) Catley a famous
All
Black. There is a contact address in the document for John Catley but its
doesn't tie up with anything listed in the local phone book.
Regards
Jocelyn
