- !NOTES:Birth date of "bef 1700" derived from an analysis of his children's approximate births based upon first appearances in the records or birth of first know child, etc. Using that method, the oldest son John was born ca 1718 or before. Using that, we can assume that James was born 1700 or before, if at least 18 when John was born.
It should be noted that this "before ca 1700" works well with the christening record of James Cathey, son of Alexander, christened 3 Jul 1694 in Clones Parish, Monaghan County, Ireland. It doesn't prove they are the same James though, but is noteworthy. It is also noteworthy that James of NC did *not* have a son named Alexander as far as is known, nor is the name used among his grandchildrer either. Not conclusive proof of anything, but also noteworthy.;
!NOTES:Maryland land survey 1720 James Cathey named "Drum Greena." EHC points out that Drumgeeny Township was a place in County Monaghan, Ireland, so that seems to tie James to Clones, Monaghan, Ireland where there was a proven James (1694) son of John.
