Stephen Catt and Francis Ridley's daughter Mary (Fisher) had a daughter named Mary
Ellen (Ella) Fisher. Ella married Frank Thomas Hancock on 23 Sep 1891. I am Dan Hancock,
a descendant of that marriage. I am documenting Stephen's, Francis', Mary's,
and Ella's families and descendants at my webb site (
www.hancockonline.net). I would
like to receive a copy of Mysie McDonald's information. My two questions relate to
the parents of Stephen Catt and Francis Ridley. I have seen one genealogy wherein
Stephen's parents were reported to be Stephan Catt (b. 10 Feb 1777) and Elizabeth
Blackman; however, no source documentation was provided. Has anyone researched the old
English parish records and verified the names of Stephen's (b. 1804) parents and his
place of birth? Further, has anyone determined the names of Francis (or Frances?)
Ridley's parents and her place of birth?
