: Hi Susan,
This is answere to your previous questions regarding Cater's in Hydes.
: In the 1820 census for Prince George's
: County there was a George Cator &
: Benjamin Cator Jr.it sites Hydes, maybe a
: district? Another Benjamin Cator was in
: Queen Anne.
: My source for the Cater's living 8 miles
: from D.C. is from a journal by a Cater who
: was born in that area and is very specific.
: It is from his journal he mentions
: Centreville Tavern, the owner was Isaac
: Ball. The school was within 3 hundred yards
: of the tavern and a slave market. His
: teacher was John Brashears. His father
: George Cater rented land from a wealthy
: landowner, he mentions Captain West, Major
: Calvert, Judge Key and Gov. Bowie. He states
: that the Cater farm was about three fourths
: of a mile from Captain West. The other's
: lived close.
: He was baptised by parson Joseph Messenger,
: the church was in Marlboro, a town 8 miles
: away. He wrote that there was no church near
: where they lived. The records I am trying to
: locate are from 1765-1830,this George Cater
: and family left Maryland in 1830 for Ohio.
: I appreciate your input, I am not familiar
: with MD and it's Parishes & Hundreds. I
: am learning a lot about your State and it's
: history, hopefully I can go to the Archives,
: that's what I am aiming for.
: Have a lovely weekend,
: Basia Cater
