148. Catherine DuVal Thomas (Charles "Roach" Thomas , Emma Lestelle Hamilton , William Perry , John Bell , William Robert , William Robert , William , John William ) was born Apr 8 1914 in Lynchburg, Virginia. She died in Lynchburg, Virginia.
Catherine sent to live with her great-uncle William Wistar and -aunt Zula
Doyle Hamilton:
"This is the Uncle with whom Catherine DuVal Thomas was sent to live in
New Orleans at the age of six years. Mother still remembers that nine
months resentfully, asking at age 82 (when virtually no other part of her
mind remembers anything) "What do you think of a parent who sends her
child off to live at age six?" To this day, she dislikes peanut butter,
a dislike that traces to that year in New Orleans when, tired of peanut
butter sandwiches, she traded with a classmate at school. The Hamiltons
punished her for that by making her eat peanut butter for the rest of the
year. Why Ethel Thomas sent her daughter away to live at six is
unknown. Mother concluded from this and the rest of her life, much of
which was spent being shipped off to camps or schools, that her mother
did not like her. I suspect that it had more to do with Ethel's own
sense of independence."
