According to census records, Art Catlin (as he preferred) was the son of JOhn L. Catlin
and Mamie Hilyard. Both were born in California. Art married an Estelle. I have not
traced her maiden name yet.
John L. Catlin married two women in Tulare county - a Mamie Hilyard and an Elizabeth
Hilyard. Art was the son of Mamie. I have not found any children for Art and Estelle.
According to Social security, Art lived 1883-1972.
John L. Catlin was the son of Oliver W. Catlin (Sr) and Amanda Chapman. Oliver was born
in NY about 1830.
ALl this can be found thru the genweb site for California.
It does not appear that Art Catlin was not related to a George Catlin. DOes anyone even
have any dates that George Catlin existed?
Leonard Hilyard (all of them) are not related to any Morris that signed the declaration of
Independence. None of the WV Morris line is related to the Morris signer.
