Of my maternal lines: Seeking other desendants of Samuel Valentine Catcott and Elizabeth Donaldson, my ggg grandparents. Susan Catcott and Charles Benjamin Crane were my gg grandparents. Nellie Crane and Charlie Clark Smith were my g grandparents. Retha Smith and Ralph Kessel were my grandparents. Only had the very great pleasure of meeting Retha Smith Kessel during my lifetime as all others died before my birth. Crane family also found later in Jefferson and Henry Cos in IA.
