Catherine (--?--)

ID # 1737, (1832-1896)
BirthCatherine (--?--) was born on 25 December 1832 at Ireland. 
MarriageShe married Henry Vrooman, son of Arents Schuyler Depeyster Vrooman and Mary Douglas.
To this point, no marriage registration for Henry and Catherine has been found. Given son Elam's birth in 1854, it seems reasonable that they were married around 1852 or 1853. This time period has little in the way of official birth registrations for it falls between the end of most district marriage registers and before county marriage registers were begun. A church record may exist, but it does not appear that they were married any of the Presbyterian churches in Galt. By 1861, the couple was in Beverly, though there is some evidence of a sojourn in Dumfries Township. No reasonable candidate for Catherine has been found in the 1851 census.
 
DeathShe died on 12 February 1896 at Home Twp., Montcalm Co., Michigan, at age 63. 
BurialShe was buried at McBride Cemetery, Montcalm Co., Michigan.

Catherine's date of birth as shown in this tree may or may not be correct, but is based on her age as shown in her death registration above.
