The Worley Family
Of Morehouse Parish, Louisiana
Following my father's 40 year, non-productive search
for "Caden" Worley, I decided to look for "Linna."
Thankfully, we had the names of their children, so
they were easily identified once the Finley branch
was found. We are fortunate that James Cader Worley
was active in his community and left behind enough
legal documentation to support his identity. Thanks
so much to Cousin Willis for all his hard work.
