John Lacey and Catherine Negley
Posted by: William Muller (ID *****3372) Date: October 27, 2005 at 18:42:09
  of 9

Catherine NEGLEY, daughter of Felix and Ruth Horton Negley married a James LACEY. Catherine and James had 8 children as listed below. Both James and Catherine were born in ALLEGHENY Co., PA, but they may have gone west AFTER 1880.

Who were James Lacey’s parents?

Where and when (in Jame’s case) did they die?

Can any one provide additional information on the children, their spouses and grandchildren, if any.

Willing to share information!
