GRANDPARENTS: Solomon Disbrow / Lydia Bennett
I believe Catharine was the 6th of 10 children of Silas and Hester Russell of Chestnut Ridge Road, Dover, New York. If true, siblings were Lydia, Eliza, Rebecca, Theodore, Hannah, Mary, Walter J. and Andrew Russell. Her father worked variously as a blacksmith, laborer, and farmer. Her mother was born in Putnam County. By age 8 Catharine was living in the home of Joseph and Anor Wooley Butler, prosperous neighbors who owned the land surrounding Chestnut Ridge Friend's Burial Ground, where she is buried. Her parents and at least brother Walter, migrated to Litchfield Connecticut, where they were farmers.
