Hello, My name is Sandra Catchings. I am a granddaughter of Eugene Davis Catchings and Lurline Felder Catchings. Grandma Catchings died around 2004. Grandpa died a long time ago - around 1979 or 1976. They had two kids- William Thompson Catchings (my Dad, who passed 02/21/98) and his sister Anna Deloise Miller, who currently lives in Ocean Springs, MS. My Dad (William Thompson Catchings) married Unola May Parr (she is still living and was born 09/04/??) and they had 3 daughters: Linda Ann Catchings (born Jan 26, 1957), Diane May Catchings (now Diane Catchings Craft - married) (born 02/20/1963), and myself Sandra Jean Catchings (born May 16 1965).Linda was married and is now divorced, no children. She has had many health problems and is recovering from a stroke currently. She is 50 years old. Diane married Joseph Craft (don't know the middle name) and they had one son- Joseph Craft (can't remember the middle name right now) (born 01/27/91). I married Henry B Bradford III and we have one son, William Catchings Bradford who is 4 years old. (born Oct 1, 2002). Grandpa Catchings has a few brothers and sisters. We met them before he died. They were all very very old --in their late 90's. That was very very old for the 1970's, when we met.We all lived in the Greater New Orleans area until Hurricane Katrina broke the levees.My mother and sisters still live in Metairie, LA. My family moved to Staunton, Virginia in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Keep in touch!!!!- Sandra
