Hi! your Catherine Cavender is a different person than mine. My Katie was born abt 1865
her father James Cavender was in the military most his life. after her father died she
taught school at the age of 14 at Wallace Kansas. She has a brother John who the family
has had a hard time tracking down. After his fathers death he seems to have dissapeared
from the records.
He later marries Emma Ridel and has 3 children;James , Sue and On July 1 1900 in
Ellis Kansas another John is born. This John Henry Cavender is my husbands grandfather
who lived in Sabetha Kansas most his life and married .
If you find any material on this John Cavender please let me know If I find anything about
yours I will pass it on. i have been going to the KS historical society and perusing the
old newspapers there...so much history.!!
