These pages are an amalgamation of "THE CATLEY DESK" and "THE CATTLEY PAGES".    Here you will find much information and many links to other relevant sites.    We hope that you find what you are looking for.

There is an associated mailing list (where you can discuss what you are looking for) and you can view the original (now closed) Message Board from "The Catley Desk".    We invite anyone with an interest in any of the variants of the name e.g. KATLEY, KETLEY, CATELEY, CATLEY to join the mailing list.

Chris Newall's database is growing apace and he welcomes new submissions, so please check his site for submission requirements etc. and help us to build a great resource for future generations.

David Meredith's LIN CATLEY VILLAGE LIST , wherein he lists Lincolnshire CATLEYs village by village, will I'm sure prove to be a very valuable resource particularly for those whose ancestors disappeared from their last known parish.

If you have your CAT(T)LEY (or related name) data in a genealogy program and would like it to be published here I would be happy to add it. I can accept data in GEDCOM format and create web-pages from that using Legacy Family Tree 3.0, but please be sure to exclude living people from the GEDCOM.

We encourage you to send us your family data in whatever format, whether for these pages or for Chris Newall's events database.
