Hi Mike and Lisa,
The area you asked about - Catts Tavern - was located at what today is about
the 2000 Block of Duke Street in Alexandria. My ascestor William Simpson
owned the property before it was sold to Samuel Catts in 1832-1833. Hope
this is of help to you.
Happy Huning,

Hi List,
I would be keen to know if there would be a person living in Alexandria who
could do a little searching for me please. I would be very happy to
reimburse costs.
I am trying to obtain the death notice that may have been published in a
local newspaper for the death of Edith L ADAMS (nee LINCOLN) in Dec 1980.
She was born Topeka Kansas 8 Nov 1888.
I have tried Lloyd House Alexandria Library who have done a great search for
an obit without success. From their reply it seems they have also tried
I have several references of an ancestor, Samuel Walker CATTS, who owned
a hotel for about 50 years from approx. 1815-1863. The location is
given as either:
West End, Fairfax County, Virginia OR
West End, Falls Church, Fairfax County, Virginia OR
West End of Alexandria, Virginia
I don't see this on a current map. Was this an actual locality, or if
it was just the western side of town? Where is it today?
Thank you.
Has anyone any info. on the Alfred Hines family of Alex. Co or city ;I have
that he md. Maria Odelton about 1827 and Benjamin CAWOOD was bondsman but I
can`t seem to find them on the following census records; since I can`t trace
my direct Oldton line I feel sure Maria is a neice or gr dau. of my lines and
would yield some info if I could follow her on the census.
any help would be so much appreciated.
