Jennifer Miller March 22, 2004
I will send you more information later but hoped to get started with this. The family was from Luverne. The PERKINS/KELLEY(KELLY) connection was as follows; Annie Ethel KELLEY married Thomas PERKINS. Annie Ethel KELLEY's parents were Dewitt Kelley and Susan Owens KELLEY. We are trying to find out Dewitt Kelley's siblings names and parents names. His mother is a full blooded Cherokee who married an Irish man (KELLEY) I have a picture of Dewitt KELLEY and Susan O. KELLEY with Annie KELLEY as a child and Dewitt's brother and sister in law and their mother the Cherokee but don't know their names. I also have a picture of Annie KELLEY with her class mates in front of the Rutledge school. She was born in the late 1800's and looked to be a teen in the picture. How do I get this to you? Thanks for any help.

Ander Cato was the son of John Cato and Flora Etta/Floretta ___ CATO.  I really don't have much on them, and was hoping to find more at your site.  But, I do know their children's names:  Henry, Susannah, James Andrew "Ander," Huldy, and Lucas.  Aunt Huldy died around 1987, when she was in her late 90's.  I have some info on their marriages/families. Lucy Jean (or Lucy Jane) Brasiel was the daughter of John or James THOMAS Brasiel and Mittie A. (Arminta?) McMURRY.  I was also hoping to find something on either of these families here.  Their children were: Charlie, Lucy Jean, Elbert Howard, Comer Lavode, Willie R., Rufus Thomas, and Lucian Oliver.  I have dates and marriage/family info for some of these, as many of them migrated to Thomaston, Georgia, which is where I live.  My grandmother and her sister, Ruthie, also lived here, and their older brother General.
