Message Board Post:
Has anyone come across the name Dolphus Calloway Cater anywhere in you lineage of Caters?
I have a Dolphus Calloway Cater who was born in Georgia around 1853. His parents are said
to be a Thomas Cater who married a Mary Green but I have no proof of that. Cannot find
any trace of him or his family before 1900 in Maysville, Madison Co. Alabama. It has been
suggested that Dolphus married three times. First to a Haley Willouby - they had a son -
Riley Thomas Cater. Then he was married to a Francis Key? - who he had 3 more sons and a
daughter - Ed, Charles Vernon (Bud), Jessie Hubert and Ada Belle - with before being
widowed again and finally marrying Julia Ester Jenkins. He and Julia had four sons
together - Harley, Dolphus Jr., Robert, and Fred. I am having a very hard time finding
any trace of this family in Georgia, yet everything points to Dolphus Sr as having been
born there.
