Job Catt m. Polly Harris, 1 Dec 1814, Adams Co., OH.
Noah Jones m. Mary Stout, 25 Oct 1821, Adams Co., OH.
Mary is the formal name and Polly the nickname. Did Polly Harris and Noah Jones die and
their spouses marry?
Were there two Job Catts and two Mary Stouts?
We have all taken the printed word based on oral traditions as the truth and now with
these new documents, solutions must be found. I realize looking at the section on Job
Catt in my book, that I too made some grave errors. Was Joseph M. and Michael Catt one
and the same. I now think so as Joseph was Joseph Michael Catt it seems. Or did someone
just stick that Michael in as Joseph had a middle initial M?
Hopefully, someone has the answer. Thanks for any help. <cander(a)cox-internet.com>
