[Dates of parents, spouse and children graciously sent to me by Michael at FAG. All the dates do match the dates I have except for 2 dates: (1) I have the date of birth for her father, William Henry, as 1706; which would then make me question William Cathey's date of death. and (2) I show Frances Cathey's date of birth as birth as about 1724 and her death as 17 Dec 1798. So I need to figure out the dates for the father, William Henry. Those dates were given to me by John Cathey of the Cathey Family Reunion Association. Thanks Michael.]

I do not have rights to edit the FAG page for her husband, George Cathey, so I will make a notation here. See this website for George Cathey's Last Will and Testament: http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/j/o/h/Donna-J-Johnson/GENE74-0023.html#CHILD1997015042. That website says: "The inscription on their gravestone reads:

Corruption earth and worms
Shall but refine this flesh
Till out triumphant sprits comes
To put it on afresh.

God our redeemer lives
And often from the skies
Looks down and watches all our dust
Till He shall bid it rise."
