Thank you for the reply.
I'm asking because I also descend from William W. Cater B. 1806 and I haven't
found a plausible and/or verifiable father for John Cater.
Besides his age at John's birth, my research has William Cater (b. 1688) as having
died in 1749. So his death 27 years before John's birth would pretty much make it
impossible for him to be John's father.
I think a William Cater was John's father, but not this William. William W. might be
the grandfather or even possibly his great grandfather.
Hopefully someone can provide the missing information here.
