Actually, Catt is my husband's name and I have more of his information clear back to
Michael Katz when he came into this country and before. What I'm really in need of is
my mother's ancestory on both sides - the Coonrods and the Cloyds. Her mother was Ora
Elizabeth Cloyd, b. 1881, d. 1901 in Egypt, Arkansas. Her father was David Marion Coonrod
m. 1898 in Cairo, IL., b. 1845 Kansas (according to my uncle's birth cert.), d. 1903,
Soldiers' Home - Quincy, IL.
Ora's siblings were: Rance C., Willard, and Pearl who married a Sheffield.
David's siblings were: John and Charlotte who married a Warren Fulton and she d. in
1902or3. Any help would be a miracle as my mother searched all during her lifetime. I
have David's Civil War papers and there is no mention of parents. His two other
marriages and divorces I have. Thank you, JoHannah Catt jcattsinger(a)juno.com.
