Book excerpt: I began this project when I was in grade school. I knew we were Catawba, but when I went to school, it became obvious that I was different than my classmates. So I looked up Catawba in our new 50's World Books and it said it was a grape. It took more years and more research to find that indeed there was a homeland in South Carolina and that there were lots of Cantys, Scotts and other names I knew from my own genealogy.So, after marrying and collecting my husband's genealogy which was vast, I turned to the Catawba research, along with my mother's genealogy, I collected and collected. Genealogy became my life's work besides my kids and husband and other family activities. I became a professional genealogist, or at least I got paid for some, and this enabled me to continue on into the computer era.So that is how I came from a grape to a Catawba daughter, wife and mother of today.
