      2. Catherine was a twin to Thomas Foster as recorded in Matthew Brown's bible.

      3. Catherine's will was written September 23, 1892 mentioning her daughter Elizabeth C. Harrald (family spelling is "Harrold"); sons John A. Brown, Harrison Brown, J. M. Brown, and T. B. Brown; Lina J. Chesebro'; E. P. Chesebro' as executor; witnessed by Mary Lewis and J. W. Hill; probated April 8, 1898; and to be fully administered on or before April 8, 1899 as ordered by S. S.
