Here are just some of the Caton's in the NORTH CAROLINA MARRIAGES
database on
ancestry.com. Essentially these are the people I cannot
place reliably any where in my own Caton tree. There are X's below, and
I would tend to suspect that rather than designating a middle initial,
they represent the fact that the person in question signed with an X or
other mark. There are not enough X names for the number of X's below!
If you can identify these folks, then write back to the list, so that
everyone can see, and so that it is stored in the searchable archives.
