Hello! I haven't researched the Cathey Family myself, but, I have noticed when I go down to the Tennessee River in the Hurricane Creek area that there is a road there named "Cathey Cemetery Road". The road is off of Hurricane Creek Road and it is an old dirt road with no houses on it since TVA made the lake. I don't know if this is your family. If it is maybe one of those TVA maps could have the information about the cemetery? Wish I had more info. about it for you. Good luck in your search!
