According to Moran's daughter-in-law, Deborah, the story goes something like this:
Joseph Anderson was chief around the turn of the century and he and his wife, Josie Pulsifer Anderson, had endured many miscarriages. When Josie was pregnant with Catherine, the S'Klallam chief was worried that death would come visiting again.
One day, as he was walking on a path, the chief saw a visitor from the spirit world. The vision told Joseph the baby would live, and that her name would be Catherine. That woman always felt special, her children say, because God had spoken about her to her father.
