Yes, i am still looking for info on a Jess Cato that
lived in Poinsett Co for awhile then moved to
Randolph Co that is where he died.
He was married to a Minnie Ballard she died July 18,1963 and i have no birthdate for her.
I have no dates on Jess Cato i know that this
couple had two/three daughters one was Stella
Cato she married a Samuel Portenberry from
Lepanto. Sam had three daughters by his first wife
that passed away giving birth to their fourth child they
think and then two yrs later he met and married Stella
and they had two children of their own Marie and
Susan. Stella died in 1977 and Sam died in the
early 60's i think or may the late 50's they are
buried in the Pottsville Cemetery in Lepanto, Poinsett
Co Ark. If you are kin to the Cato's please contact
me at this message board or my email and if you
do it thru the email put Cato in the subject line
so i want delete the email. I am doing this for my
grandson these are his greatgrandparents and greatgreatgrandparents. hope i hear from
someone
about these people.
Thank you very much,
