I am the grandaughter of Ralph Soloman Sutton Jr, born 1922 in Catalochee NC. I've been doing some research on the area in this time and it turns out shortly before he was born there (1910-1918) is the time when the federal government started soliciting the land owners there because they wanted to create the National Park area. Perhaps that is how he and his family ended up here in Georgia.Thanks for the info, please keep in touch!
