Hello,
I am looking for anyone who might have more definitive information on Elizabeth Catt.
All I have is that she was born in 1829 in Iowa to Johannes (John) Catt and Leah Louisa
Rupert.
Following is the remainder of the vitals that I have on record:
Johannes (John) Catt
b 22 Mar 1787 in Masontown, Fayette, Pennsylvania
m 15 Aug 1809 in Columbiana, Ohio
d 14 Dec 1872 in Fort Scott, Bourbon, Kansas
Leah Louisa Rupert
b 07 Dec 1787 in Pennsylvania
d 27 Dec 1872 in Fort Scott, Bourbon, Kansas
I have for Johannes' parents:
John Catt
b 19 Jul 1758 in Moorefield, Hampshire, Virginia
m Abt 1780 in Masontown, Fayette, Pennsylvania
d Abt 1808 in Unity Township, Hancock, Indiana
Catherine (Maurer) Mason
b Abt 1762 in Virginia
d Oct 1850 in Harrison Township, Hancock, Indiana
I have for John's parents:
Michael Katz
b 04 Jun 1721
d Aft 1782
Anna Maria Mohr
b Abt 1720
d Aft 1773
I do not have any information on the parents of Leah Louisa Rupert or Catherine (Maurer)
Mason, but would certainly appreciate anyone who might have this information.
Also, I would appreciate anyone who can prove the tie to Michael Katz and Anna Maria Mohr
as I have yet to do so. I perused the book titled "The Catt Family in America",
but was unable to find any conclusive evidence that ties my Catt family line to Michael
Katz.
