Catherine Ferriter was born in Boston, Massachusetts, in about 1840. She was the daughter of John and Honora (Fitzgerald) Ferriter. The family moved to Tioga County, Pennsylvania, soon after her birth, and she lived the rest of her life in that area. She married Edward Mitchell, originally from Dublin, Ireland, around 1856, and they lived in the Morris Run and Fallbrook, Pennsylvania, area. My mother's notes have her described as a redhead, with a great sense of humor. Edward and Catherine were the parents of at least eleven children, many of whom passed away fairly young. One of those children was my grandfather, Michael Mitchell. Catherine passed away in Morris Run on Jan 11, 1913 after a long illness. She is buried with some of her family, at St. Andrew's Cemetery, Blossberg, Tioga County, Pennsylvania. More information is always welcome from fellow researchers. Author: Julie Cizenski.
