I was so excited to see some Caton's in my mail box, I had to write back
immediatey.
I don't have a lot of information and am new at posting the ancestral line so
bear with me. Anyone with more Caton info is welcome to contact me directly
if they like.
Here's my line as far I can go back:
Joshua Caton b 5/18/1837 Moberly Mo.
+ Lucinda (Lora) d Huff b 5/25/1843 Sedalia Mo

I have an Oregon census for 1900 with several Caton families including Joshua
H. Caton above. Most have birthplaces of Missouri and may be related. If you
have more info on these families please let me know.
