bullet  General Notes:


[Brøderbund WFT Vol. 3, Ed. 1, Tree #2557, Len Traubman]
This was "Aunt Kate", to whose home the Daugherty children in Ladoga loved to visit when they were growing up in the early 1900s.
----------------------------------------

Catherine died 12 days after the burial of her husband.
---------------------------------------

Only 3 daughters can be affirmatively accounted for from her marriage to William John Ermentrout yet Catherine indicated on the 1910 US Census that she had given birth to 5 children of whom only 3 were still alive. There is the possibility of a daughter named Catherine who supposed was born to a 1st husband named Benjamin Ermentrout and perhaps that daughter may have died before 1910. That could account for a total of 4 children and perhaps a 5th child could have been a stillborn, unnamed infant. Some researchers claim such a male stillborn child born on 20 Jul 1860 in Ladoga, Montgomery County, Indiana. No other records are known to exist.

Catherine married Benjamin Ermentrout about 1854. (Benjamin Ermentrout was born about 1829 and died on an unknown date.)


bullet  Marriage Notes:


This marriage to Benjamin Ermentrout seems dubious as there are no records of such a marriage nor are there any records for a Benjamin Ermentrout. Yet, there are some records to support a daughter named Catherine born about 1855. It is known that Catherine did not marry William John Ermentrout until 1858 so the daughter Catherine was either from a first husband of Catherine's named Benjamin or was a daughter from William John Ermentrout born illegitimately before their marriage.
