If we look at the total information of the posts, then these are not the
parents of Mary Policena Harvey.

The Obit for Manuel Caton states that he leaves two daughters and a son.
 Both of his daughters Carry and Josephine are accounted for on the 1920
census.

This Caton family never left Barnstable county it seems from the arrival in
the 1860s until ther parents deaths.

 We need to rule them out and start over.
