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.
