At 12:22am on August 11, 2009, Valarie Lane said…: Ok one last thing for now...do you have a subscription to ancestry.com. There is someone on there who has posted their family, (which is also your family) It says that Mary Elizabeth had a couple of children then died, (about 1863) and her husband remarried someone name Frances Taylor and had 10 more children! There is a lot more info on this family tree. If you dont have ancestry.com I think they might have a free trial offer then you could look at this. I was hoping I could download their info but I dont see anyplace for that.

If that is of any help

Well it appears that our Catlins came from Conneticut, but there is mentions of New York as well. I dont have a lot on them and they have been difficult to find as our "main" guy died early on. Have you seen the book "The Catlin Genealogy" by Louise Catlin Cleaver Roloson. I contacted the Southern California Genealogy Society and they gave me copies of the pages that my Elon Catlin was on, and leading up to his birth. If it is correct then I can go back several generations, I still have more work to make sure the info is right. You might contact them and see if they have your Mary Elizabeth. Elon was born in 1800. He died in Illinois but then his son, Elon jr. came to Oregon (Brookings-Harbor area) California (Healdsburg area). If that is any help to you.

However, the fact that you have a NY connection might mean that we are connected, and I just don't have it down.
In any case, check the censuses for Oregon to start tracking back the son from 1930. You might figure out something to help you find out how your family traveled. I bet there is some truth to the stories you have been told.
Thanks for getting in touch!!

My Schoonover's came from Holland to New York, to Delaware, to New Jersey, to Virginia and settled in West Virginia. I would like to keep in contact . If you go back far enough, we might have some names in common.
