Caveys in The United States

I don't know much but my fathers name is Leonard E Cavey, his sister is Mildred Purper maiden name was Cavey, my grandfathers name is Leonard A Cavey. As far as i know my grandfather passed in the 40's sometime, my father in April of 03.

We are from Baltimore and are still here.

Jean Luc has it really been 10 years! 

I really  think it is time for another reunion here in Maryland.  If anyone is  interested in helping me I would appreciate it.... Nicky are you out  there?!?!?  It seems like yesterday I ran into Cathy Cavey and we realized  that her Grays/Ellicott City Cavey's were actually part of my Woodstock  Cavey's!  What a wonderful bridge that was to her and I!  I had the  Woodstock info and She had the Grays info.  Her and Bill Norris had worked  long and hard on finding all their info.  At first it seemed all too easy  that this was the answer for all three of us.  But as we started putting  things together it all connected.  Thank God for my Grandmother and her  vivid memories of the Old Home Place in the hills behind the Woodstock  College!!! 

Thank God I had such an undying interested in all of her  wonderful stories and wrote it all down. It is not the gift I give to my  children and grandchildren.   The map my Uncle made of how to get back  to the old home place really helped.  My grandmother used to climb those  hills for as many years as she could, taking my father, aunt and uncle  with her, to walk back into the past of her childhood home, the home  of Mollie and Jack and before them Reuben and Mary C. Strebeck Cavey. 

The journey taken with Cathy Cavey and  Bill Norris was something I will treasure forever.  I am sure that Cathy is  in heaven, with all the ancestors she searched for, for so many years... getting  the stories of their lives.

I would really like to try to get  together another reunion of the Woodstock/Grays/Ellicott City Cavey's.  

Bill if you are out there I could not do it without you or Nicky!!!!!

I would love to talk to you.  

You can reach me at  410 242 8956

My Great Grandmother was Mollie (Mary Jane Cavey) who  lived with her husband and children( one of which was my grandmother)  in a home built by her father, Reuban Cavey (son of Joseph and Sarah  Cavey) in the hills behind the Woodstock College and not too far from the Quarry

Look forward to speaking to you!

I noticed a message from a John Lea, Texas, who discussed Bailleul, West Flanders, and some of the de Bailleul family members...I would like to discuss more with this John Lea of Texas,.

Would you please forward my message and ask him to contact me, if he is willing?

I may be distantly related to you.

My Great-grandmother was Florence King and her mother was Mary Bower King. Many years ago Bill Norris sent my mother (Beatrice Lillian [Lachenauer] Boublis) a copy of the Norris-Cavey-King family tree information. I'm trying to get in touch with Bill Norris again and would like to share my genealogical findings with the family.

Can you please have this lady email me re: King?  My 2nd great was Eva Estelle Parrish who married Thomas J King.  I would love descendant info.

Thank you.

My late husband was Edward Francis Cavey of the Woodstock Baltimore Caveys.

We did extensive research on the family and connections to the Catholic Church. I can tell you the name of the Cavey who was instrumental in converting Woodstock area families to Catholicism & ties to the Society of Jesus and Woodstock seminary.

My husband was a prominent Jesuit before our marriage.

I would like a snail mail address to send photos and materials. Lots of stuff.

Laura,

Just came across your letters from November on the  web site. Your gr-grandmother Florence Alverda King and my gr-grandmother  Margaret Anna Rebecca King Wiles were sisters. Your grandmother (Bea) and  grandfather (Elmer) used to visit back and forth with my parents Earl and Evelyn Wiles. I always thought they were the best. My sister Bea was named after your  grandmother. We called your Mom 'Little Bea'.

Earlyn

Keith,

I have the same info. on Minnie Cavey that you do. Mine came from the Howard County Historical Society, which came from Bill  Norris.

Earlyn E. Wiles Stanco

I see many mentions of Bill Norris on your site.  I was previously in contact with him and would like to be again.  Do you know how I can reach him?

Thank you, Gina C Sessions-Keitz

My great aunt was married to a Cavey here in Maryland...  I believe Bill had contact with them before they passed away.

I saw your website and wanted to get on the mailing list.  My name is Keith Austin.  I am from Baltimore. 

My great-grandmothers name was Minnie Ritter, but her maiden name was Minnie Cavey.  Through the census I believe her parents were Robert and Rosa Cavey and I believe Roberts parents were Nathaniel and Mary A. Cavey. 

Just wanted to try to confirm this or find out where my great-grandmother fits in.  Thank you.

I am a medical doctor (General Practitioner) working at the International SOS Clinic in Jakarta, Indonesia. I have once had a mister Thomas Cavey visiting us in the clinic here, and I believe he has now moved back to the USA. I found your website purely by chance, and remember Mr Cavey (I believe his full name to be Thomas J. Cavey).

If you happen to contact him, can you say hi to him from me? I understand that for privacy reasons you cannot release his e-mail address (but I give you permission to give him mine, if he wants to).

Best wishes

I am interested in contacting Sharon Zinkand and Michael R. Cavey re my relationship with the Cavey family. I am related to the Bodka, Miller, and Gallagher families through my grandfather James Bodka, who was born in Lonaconing MD. He died in Minnesota, I have a few photos and letters from his MD family.

Please advise, thank you

Dear Sir, I am new to your Cavey site. I found an entry by Michael R. Cavey dated 1 October 1997 which relates to my family. Mary Bodka Miller was sister to my grandfather James Bodka. How, please, may I contact Michael Cavey? I have an old letter dated late 1800s written by Mary Miller to her brother, my grandfather. I have the family history of James who married in Minnesota. Any help that you can give me would be appreciated.

The above is regarding my mother's side of my lineage. On my father's side I was born a Pepin, the family from France to Canada in the 1600s.

Thank you for your consideration.

Hello,

I know I just wrote you but i just remembered that I  have some antique steel-plate photographs of some of the Caveys which I'm sure Bill Norris's relatives would be interested in. these people, I don't know how I am related to and I would like to know who the people are in them. I'm so excited to have seen Bill Norris's name and some other familiar names, Je regrette que je ne parle pas en français.

Merci, merci, Merci pour ce site!

Hello,

I may be distantly related to you. My Great-grandmother was Florence King and her mother was Mary Bower King.

I'm trying to get in touch with Bill Norris again and would like to share my genealogical findings with the family.

I also have my bachelor's degree in French. If you need some help in translation,please ask.

Thank you for keeping this website. I saw Bill Norris's name on it!

Looking for information on Cavey family in the Ohio, Wisconsin, Iowa areas.

Hi my name is Steven Cavey, my fathers name is Leonard Edward Cavey, he passed away in 2003, my grandfather was Leonard Asberry Cavey and was married to Ida marrie Mitchel.

I,m just looking for any information on my ancestors from both sides.

Thank you.

I have been reading the posts at your website; I read one from Tomas Cavey that said that he also had Irish Cavey ancestors. If he would still like my e-mail address, please send it to him...also, there is a post from 2004 from Janet Cavey (maiden name) in England; I believe, after having read her post, that she and I share great-great-grandparents and are cousins. I would like to give her my e-mail address as well, if possible.

Thank you--the site has been very helpful!

Emily Burns
(Rhode Island) 19 September 2006

I have found out a little more about my Irish Cavey ancestors from the 1901 and 1891 English Census records. My great-grandmother, Jane Cavey, was born in Wigan, Lancashire, England c. 1866. Her mother, Bridget, was born in Ireland in the early 1830s (unfortunately, I don't know her maiden name). Her father, Patrick Cavey, was born in Ireland in c. 1831. Besides Jane, they had a son, Patrick, who was born in Wigan c. 1870.

Jane Cavey married my great-grandfather, James Burns, who was also from Ireland, in Wigan around 1890.

If anyone recognizes these people from their family tree, I would love to hear from them.

I'm researching the Charles Gilbert Cavey lineage. 

My father-in-law, Fred Englehart, is making plans to marry Catherine Ann (Roberts) Cavey, the former wife of Charles Gilbert Cavey 2nd (1932-2004) and the mother of Charles "Jake" G. Cavey 3rd (1959-2004).  I enjoy researching genealogy and would appreciate your help to sign me up.  I've just begun researching the Cavey genealogy and would like to contact Charles' other son, Michael Ladd Cavey. 

How can I obtain Michael's email address? 

Also, how do I obtain access to the MyFamily.com genealogy?  I look forward to hearing from you.  Thank you for your consideration.

Hello,

I not related to you in anyway, Im writing you because, about 1 hour ago, I was watching Discovery Channel here in Florida, USA.  Its about HAUNTING PLACE, and eeriely enough, the ghost haunting the SUMMERWIND house, somewhere in WISCONSIN, was WILLIAM CARVEY, landowner during 17th or 18th century..very interesting and spooky.  Apparently, he helped to unite two red indian warlords, in gratitude they gave him big piece of land...if you go, to WISCONSIN ARCHIVES, you probably traced WILLIAM CARVEY.

Thanks a bunch.  Hope this helps

Lily

Kate

Hello!

My name is Kaitlin Cavey. I stumbled upon the site, and I know my father has actually been a member of the site in past years. I didnt know if it would help, but there are are five caveys in my family living here in missouri. I dont if there are any other caveys elsewhere in missouri, but i thought this update might be helpful. Good luck with your site, Ive found it very informative and interesting. You've done a wonderful job!

Thank you,

Kaitlin Cavey

Hi Penny

I am a descendent of  Henry Cavey & I would like to share any info with you. I also agree with your "hunch" that  Joseph and Henry were brothers. Hope to hear from you.

Does any one have any information on a Mahalith Cavey born in 1819 in NY, living in Michigan with her 2 daughters and 2 sons. The children were born in Michigan ranging from 8 to 2 yrs of age. No mention of father. Shows up on the Michigan census in 1850. Children - Mariah, William, Susan and Edward.

Patty,

I have Icel Cavey married to a Woodrow Kelly but do not have any of their children.  Also I show her grandmother as Anna Mae Stanley and I think you have her named spelled differently.  I would like to have all information you can give me on John Evan Cavey and Mary Tippie.  My e-mail is {DesignStch at aol} if you want to contact me direct.

Connie

I have some info on icel kelly she's my aunt

[Note of the Editor] This message was first sent on Message Board at Ancestry.com.

We spoke years ago (1992 maybe) and Bill wrote the story of the old house in Ellicott City.

He gave a copy to Dorothy O'Brien, my aunt.  My existing Cavey relatives are my aunts Dorothy O'Brien and Helen Davis.  My mother, Patricia (Sears)  and aunt Mary (Swift) are deceased. I knew Aunt  Nan (the postmistress in Ellicott City) Tess (our granny) aunt Ine, Eva, Agnes, Rose, and there were brothers who died earlier.  I think one was Wesley.  There is a Cavey monument in St. John's cemetary in Ellicott City and the homestead which is now an historical dwelling which has been refurbished and is gorgeous.   I remember when Ine and Eve put Aunt Nan in the nursing home on West Road in Towson.  We went to see her every weekend when I was about 10.  I am now 49 and remember Ine and Eve's home on Midmeadow Road in Towson.  My father built it as part of Jett Development in the 60's.

Granny (Theresa) married Thomas Lundy and had four daughters - Dorothy, Mary, Patricia and Helen.

Aunt Nan never married - lived at the homestead with her parents and raised Dorothy who was bore by Theresa but the father was never known.  Now THAT is a family secret to this day.  Aunt Dorothy turned 85 in March. She was Theresa's mother, but Thomas Lundy raised her as his own.

Thomas Lundy died before I was born.  I am the daughter of Patricia (Theresa Cavey's daughter).  She married Joseph Sears and, thus, was Patricia Ann Lundy.

I am a breast cancer patient who never has recovered.  Been fighting since November, 2001.  My prognosis is not good, but I do remember you, Bill, and all the years of work it took you to write that "bible" on ancestry. 

When we first "met", I was married and living in Westminster, MD.  Since then, too many things have happened and I am on my own - and very happy.

Please write back.  My sister, Nancy Rothwell, would be so happy that I have found you again and the bit of history she can have for her children.

Dear Monsieur Cavey,

This e-mail pertains to what I read on your web site which, was written by Bill Norris  and Sharon Zinkand, who were exploring some of your family's history in what's now the Patapsco State Park in Maryland, USA.

While attempting to research a quarry that I'd seen while riding on horseback, through the aforementioned park, I happened upon your web site.  Perhaps it may interest you and your relatives that there's a horse-farm near the park, which may be helpful to your family's genealogical exploration in Patapsco State Park.  I lead trail rides through the park and am familiar with many of the trails there.  The farm, Misty Manor Farm, can accomodate up to twenty-five people at a time on horseback rides through the park, which might make it easier for you and your relatives to travel through the park
to see such places as the remains of old house mentioned by Ms. Zinkand, which belonged to her great grandfather.

For further information, Misty Manor's website is http://www.mistymanor.com.

There is also a historian for the state park who may also be of help to your family; his name is Robert Bailey (I'm not certain if I have his last name spelled correctly); the telephone number where I'm told he can be reached is: 1-410-737-0451.

Best of luck with your genlealogical research.  Hopefully you'll be able to visit this part of the U.S. and ride through the Patapsco State Park on horseback to see some of your family's history there.

Best wishes

Robert D. Davis

Jack Dolby
(Maryland) 16 April 2006

I am a direct descendant of Alfred Brice Cavey, referenced on the web site http://family.cavey.org/html_en/write_us.shtml.

Alfred Brice Cavey had a daughter Mary Elizabeth Cavey, her 2nd marriage to James Andrew Brannan (first marriage was to Joseph Munsch), their son Alfred Charles Brannan married Hannah Elizabeth Griffith... my mother's parents.

I tried to contact that web site through the address {Family at cavey.org}, but the email bounced.

I am not actively doing genealogical research right now but have some information for some of the folks on the above-mentioned page.

Jack Dolby

My name is Charlotte Cavey and I live in Lansdowne, Maryland, USA.  I am trying to get family history information.  My granfather's name was William Thomas Cavey, his wife Myrtle Irene Parker Cavey.  My father was Charles Edward Cavey. 

My email address is {char2blue at yahoo.com}.

Hi this is Mina Cavey. My parents divorced when I was an infant and I was never told anything about my father.

I was not even allowed to speak of my father or my family. When I got older and away from my mother , I kept calling Dayton, Ohio phone information .Finally I got hold of my uncle Tom Cavey and he put me in touch with my father. I spoke to my father once and told him I always loved him and a  week later he passed away. My fathers brothers and sister are so elderly , they have a hard time with  remembering the past. The only thing I was told, was that they lived in a coal mining town in Ohio in the Smokey Mountains and the small town was so poor that it doesn't exist anymore.All I know is that his brothers  and sister moved to the Dayton and West Carrollton area. But now I cant find any of them in area.

My father,  Ernest Ewing Cavey passed away December 20,1994. He was 65 . On my birth certificate it only says that he was born in Ohio. I was born in Montgomery. county, Dayton,Ohio on June 1,1956. His brothers , Tom , John ,  and Bob and his sister Icel Cavey would have been born in the place in Ohio. Wherever that is ? I don't  even know his parents name.

I just want to know about my family that my mother unjustly kept from me. I  know next to nothing.

Any help would be greatly appreciated !

Just checked my records and also 1930 census records.

Ernest was the son of John Cavey and wife Mary and resided in Trimble County,
Athens County, Ohio.  Ernest was age 11/12 or 1 month old at time of census. 
Other siblings listed are dtr Icel age 11, son John age 9, Son Forest age 7,
son Bobie age 6, son Billie age 2 9/12 and then son Ernest age 11/12.

family line is --
Ernest
John M. Cavey & Mary
John E. Cavey and M. Anna Mae Stanley
John Washington Cavey and Mary Willis
Levi Cavey and Margaret Allison

Levi was born 1812 in Maryland. 

If Mina would e mail me direct I can give her dates and other siblings, etc.  Levi Cavey and wife Margaret are buried in Jackson County, Ohio.  Their daughter Sarah was my ancestor.

Can Mina furnish a little more information on her father such as when and perhaps where he was born.  I have information on some Ohio Cavey's and will try to help if I can.

I was born in Dayton Ohio. My father was Ernest Ewing Cavey.

My mothers name was Chevetta.

My father had three brothers and one sister. Brothers were; John, Bob, Tom & sister - Icel Cavey. I don't know a lot about my family's my mother kept me away from my Cavey side of my family. My mother has passed away and my father passed away December 20,1994. He is buried at Evergreen Cemetery in West Carrollton, Ohio. I am desperate to know anything about my family. I don't even know the names of my grandparents.

Please Help if you can! I was born June 1,1956.

I have been out of touch for over a year.  Am now taking care of my  87 year old father.  I saw a notice from PAt Rivera with an AOL email address.  

I tire that address but it is no longer valid.  Would you have an address for her.  I believe we are related

Jean & Robert -- I missed a generation -- here it is again

John Washington Cavey b Feb 5, 1837 and wife Mary Willis b 1844

John Evan Cavey b May 13, 1869 m Anna Mae Stanley b 1871

Frank Cavey b 1890 m Lola Murphy

Robert Cavey b 1925 m Margaret

Robert, here is what I have on your family.

Levi Cavey b 1812 Maryland wife Margaret (believe her last name to be Allison) Levi and family were in Jackson County, Ohio in 1860 census.

John Washington Cavey b Feb 4, 1837 Carroll County, Ohio married Mary Willis in Jackson County, Ohio.

Frank Cavey b 1890  m Lola Murphy she died Athens County, Ohio 1963

I would like to have more information on Frank and Robert and their families.  Levi was my ancestor through his daughter Sarah.   I have not been able to prove anything in Maryland as to who his parents were.  Levi shows his place of birth in all the census records as Maryland.

I would be glad to exchange information with you.  John Washington Cavey was married more than once.

Hi Debi,

It's good to hear that Bill (I still call him  Billy, old habits are hard to break), is doing better. He's done a great job  researching the Cavey family. It's also good to know you have caught the bug.

Earlyn

Hello Bonnie,

I do not know if you are interested or not but I am forwarding a copy of an obituary for a Harrison Cavey Sr. dated 6-14-2003.

Today I have been inundated with emails from people concerning the Cavey family. I am not a relation but if you ever see a posting I have made concerning an obituary (that is what I post) for a member of the Cavey family please send me an email and I will] gladly send you a copy.

Good luck in you searching.

Hi,

My name is Bonnie (maiden name Cavey)  I was born in Linthicum, Maryland

My dads name is Lycester Cavey, Jr.  My grandfather was Lycester Cavey Sr.

I don't know much about my ancesters.  Just checking to see if anyone knows my grandfather. 

Thanks

Dear Jean-Luc,

It was wonderful to get a response from you.  Please use my {dgair1 at atlanticbb.net}.

Thanks,

Hi everybody,

Debi Gair has send the mail below both to the Caveys Ancestors Site and to myself.

I am very happy to learn that Bill feels better and that he and Debi are working again on Marylander Cavey Tree.

Also, it's great to learn that Bill will be on line soon.

I have received a few other mails from Cavey which I am forwarding to the list in a couple of hours.

Personnal message to Debi : I think I have two e-mail address from you in the list : one is {dgair1 at atlanticbb.net}. The other one is your professional address {dgair1 at jhmi.edu}. Which one would you like to be listed ?

All the best

Jean-Luc

Hi Earlyn,

I am Bill Norris's daughter.  I think I remember meeting you when I was a child.  I was always with my grandparents, Maude (Cavey) and Ernest Norris.  I guess I've caught the bug and am following in my father's footsteps in researching the family history.  He's been sick, had a two-way by-pass in May, but I saw him tonight and he's doing much better.  I think he's on his way to getting back online and continuing the research.  Keep your fingers crossed!  Maybe we can do another Cavey Reunion next year!

Thanks,

Debi Norris Gair

I am Debi Norris Gair, Bill Norris’ daughter. 

My father had a two-way bypass in May. I saw him this week at his home in Dundalk, and he seems to be doing much better.  I’ve caught the bug and am now assisting him in the genealogy research. He’s itching to get started again, and I think he’s on his way to being back online soon.

I haven’t visited the Cavey website in quite sometime and it’s great to see so many are responding. 

I found a Corpl. Owen Cavey, Died 16 Feb 1781 in the Revolutionary War.  He served between Aug 1, 1780 and Jan 1 1782. I’m wondering if this could be the missing link to the Caveys of Maryland, since I think this would be the earliest one in the US.  Found on the Maryland Archives website: Maryland Archive online

Hope to hear from you soon and hope my dad will be back online soon!

Debi

Does anyone have information on a Corpl. Owen Cavey, Died 16 Feb 1781 in the Revolutionary War?  He served between Aug 1, 1780 and Jan 1 1782. Wondering if this could be the missing link to the Caveys of Maryland.

I am pretty sure that Bill no longer have an access to the web and to this list.

In August 2004 I had the pleasure to have a call with him. His phone number was +1 [410] 288-3185.

I would suggest that you have a direct contact by that way and that you give us the feedback.

I have a favor to ask of Bill.

I received an email from Dawn Sweet Loughlin  asking me to see if anyone can help her locate anyone who can shed some light on  R. Irvin Sweet married to Violet Babylon, or Madeline Sweet.

I remember the  family and know that Violet died, but am not sure about Irvin.

My Grandmother's sister (Minna- born in 1877) married a Charles Cavey and they lived in Nome Alaska. 

They had a son - Charles Cavey Jr.  He married someone named Anna.  Charles Cavey Jr. died on Mar 2, 2002 and Anna Cavey died on Jan. 2 1988. They lived in the Seattle area - last known area was Tukwila, King, Washington.   Charles and Anna had two daughters - Joan and Linda.  Joan married a Johnson. 

I am trying to contact Joan but is very difficult to find a Joan Johnson in the Seattle area - I can not remember her husband's first name!   If anyone can help me find Joan (Cavey) Johnson it would be very much appreciated.  Linda also lives in that area - but I do not know her husband's name. 

I would be grateful for any response.  THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!

No luck finding Bill Norris. The number is out of service.

Earlyn

Carole,

I would love to see a picture of Alfred Cavey. If you could share that I would be so grateful. My grandfather Joseph Emmett Cavey was born in Columbus, Ohio but I don't know where his father was born.

Since I live near the National Archives, I should do some work on census records. Whatever information you have and are willing to share would be most welcomed.

I am on my way to Ohio for a family wedding and look forward to sharing your information with my Cavey relatives.

Sorry I haven't responded sooner--I've been out of town for a week! I'm so excited to hear from you! I'll be home tomorrow and can get back into my genealogy files, but it sounds like we may have a connection. Did Charles live in Cleveland, Ohio? I believe I have tracked him in the census records and city directory there in the early 1900s. I have a photo of Alfred Cavey and of his second wife Martha that I'd be glad to share...

Does anyone have any connections with "Sachs" that married any Cavey's?

Carole,

My family may be the one Bill Norris was referring to when he said others were researching those you have mentioned. I will get my information together to share with you...soon.

My father is Lee Eugene Cavey (DOB 5/23/1913) son of Joseph Emmett Cavey and Linnie Schocker.
Joseph Emmett is the son of Charles Brice Cavey who was the son of Alfred Cavey.

We need to talk. My father is very much interested as am I. He will be 92 next month and has always wanted to know more about his ancestors on his father's side. My grandfather, Joseph worked for the railroad just as you had mentioned.

Look forward to comparing notes. Mary Ann Cavey McFarland

You are quite welcome.

I'm going back to the Historical Library this week and will see if I can find out more on Ernest.

WOW, Thank You So Much! I am a bit confused however.

My father, Maurice Nelson Cavey, son of Ernest & India, was born in 1920. If Ernest passed away in 1918, how can this be? Again, thank you. I have come up empty handed on both Ernest & India.

Thank you!

Found info at the Howard County Historical Society Library this week.

Cavey, Ernest F., beloved husband of India C. Cavey. Born 01 July 1887, died 03 November 1918. He is buried in the Linden Linthicum Cemetery eastside of Rt. 108 on southedge of Clarksville, Maryland.

Hi Guys!

Just to clarify the info you have on Reuben below is the son of Joseph and Sarah Knight Cavey, not Reuben the son of Reuben and Mary C. Great to see so much information sharing going on!

Hello William,

The only info. I have on Reuben son of Joseph and Sarah, is that he was born 07 March 1823 in Woodstock, MD, died 1881, married Mary Catherine Strebeck who was born 1823 and died 1893. The children I have for them is William Edward Cavey born 18 November 1850, and Mary Jane born 05 September 1865? Any other information you can share with me will be greatly appreciated.

I have visited the Key burial site at Mt. Olivet Cemetery in Frederick County as I am also researching my father's family (Weil, Wile, Wiles) and go there quite often.

Thanks and have a great day. Sure is soggy here.

Thank you so much for looking and I will try both contacts you mentioned.

Take care!

Hi Carol,

Unfortunately I have nothing on any of the names you mentioned in your message. Have you tried contacting the Howard County Historical Society in Ellicott City. They have many records on the Caveys as Howard county was the site of the early Caveys in Maryland. If you contact them, ask to see the Kathy CAVEY file, she did a great job on the Caveys and their extended family. Sorry I cannot help you. Also you should check the church records of St. of St. Alphonus Rodriguez Catholic Church in Woodstock, Md., They have extensive birth, baptismal, marriage and death records on the Caveys and, many Caveys are buried in their cemetery. Ask for father Lacey.

Good luck.

I just thought I'd throw some information out there about my 4G Grandfather Brice Cavey and 3G Grandfather Alfred B. Cavey and see if it rings bells with anyone.

Brice Cavey
Birth: 1795, Maryland
Marriage: before 1822 to Phoebe (b. about 1798 in Pennsylvania)

Children (all born in Maryland):
Matilda, b. 1822
Emeline, b. 1823
Alfred B., b. 1829
Wilson A., b. 1832
Edward, b. 1837
Mary, b. 1843
Eliza, b. 1846
Sarah, b. 1850

In the 1830 census, Brice & family are living in Baltimore County and in the 1840 & 1850 censuses, they are living in Anne Arundel County. In the 1860 census, Brice, Phoebe, and Wilson are living in Muskingum County, Ohio.

The eldest son, Alfred married an English woman named Sarah, and moved to Iowa, where they are listed in an 1856 state census. Alfred and Sarah had daughters Fanny May (b. 1854, my 2G Grandmother) and Mary and a son named Joseph. Sarah died between 1860 and 1870 and Alfred married again--a woman named Martha. Alfred and Martha had daughters Lula and Maudella, and possibly a son, Charles--he may be Sarah's son. In the 1880 census, the family is living in Richmond, Indiana. In the 1900 census, Alfred and Martha are living next door to daughter Maud and her husband Grant Mitchell, in Greenup County, Kentucky.

Both Brice and Alfred worked for the railroad during their lifetimes. Some of Alfred's sons also worked on the railroad.

Information I'm looking for:

Names/dates/places of Brice Cavey's parents
Full name of Brice's wife, Phoebe - names/dates/places of her parents, her birthplace, etc.
Place/date of date for Brice and for Alfred

I have read a message on the Cavey message board from Bill Norris in which he mentions an Alfred Brice Cavey b. 1829, who is a son of Brice, who made a trip west by wagon train with his wife. He also mentioned that he knew of other Cavey who were researching this line. Can anyone help? I have a fair bit of info about Alfred, Emeline, and Wilson and some information about Alfred's children that I'd be glad to share.

Thanks so much! (I just know some of you are my relatives!)

Would you possibly have any information on an Ernest Frost Cavey from Maryland. I believe he was a farmer. Had a child (my father) with India Coombs. My father, Morris (Maurice) Nelson Cavey was born August 1920 and placed in Strawbridge Boys Home in Sykesville, MD in 1926.

These are all the details I have on his side of the family. Any thing you may have would be much appreciated.

Hello Earlyn,

Yes, I am related to you and the thousands of other Cavedys who seem to be coming out of the woodwork.My mother was Harreit Evekyn Cavey, born in Granite, Md. in 1896. Her mother was Mary Key Cavey ( a cousin to Francis Scott Key), her father was Rueben Cavey, the son of Rueben Cavey who was the son of Joseph Cavey. I am a cousin of Bill Norris and lived on Overhill Road in Catonsville until I moved to Ca. in 1970. I have two filing cabinets full of data on the Caveys and Keys.

What would you like to know ?

Thanks for adding me to your list.

I saw where a Rachel Lynn Brunner wrote in looking for her dad in February 2003. Her dads name was Lycester Ezikel Cavey. He is my brother. I know she hasn't gone into your website since then, but I didn't know if she was still wanting information.

I recently sent an email stating that I am Earlyn E. Stanco of Catonsville, Maryland, USA, and a part of the Cavey Family. My gr. grandfather was William James Cavey who married Caroline Elizabeth King. My grandmother was Clara Edna Cavey who married George Washington Harden. My parents were Evelyn Isabel Harden and William "Earl" Wiles. Bill Norris is my second cousin. I enjoy reading what other Cavey Family members have to offer about the Cavey's and have also gotten some useful information to add to what I have collected.

Please add me to your mailing list and post what I have written.

Hi,

My name is Earlyn E. Stanco gr. granddaughter of William James Cavey and Caroline King Cavey. My grandmother was Clara Edna Cavey. Bill Norris is my second cousin. I live in Catonsville, Maryland, USA. I am interested in gathering more information on the Cavey family.

Hello. 

I have emailed to a number of people within the last few days. 

Hopefully we can respond and I can make a great connection.  Here is what I have sent.  I am trying to make a connection between Charles Wesley Sullivan and my Great Great Grandfather (Henry Sullivan) who lived next door to Charles Wesley Sullivan at 875 West Pratt Street (Baltimore) in 1880.

I also posted this one.  "Looking for information on Henry and Martha (Vansant) Sullivan. Henry was born in 1812. He died on 9/16/1890. Martha was born in 1818 and died in 1882, I think. They were married on 2/15/1840. I am trying to fill in the blanks and find out about their Brothers and Sisters."

Rachel Sullivan (Maryland) 19 August 2004 Hi, my name is John Sullivan, I am looking for my G-G-Grandmother Maria (Mariah) Cavey b. 1844, d. 04/08/1931, she married Charles Wesley Sullivan d. 03/04/1926, children were Wesley d.03/18/1957, Thomas, William, Frank d. 12/15/1881. They both worked and lived in Oella.

Later they moved to 3131 Dillon Street, Baltimore, Maryland. They are buried at Western Cementery.

I have been trying for 10 years to find some information. Can anyone help?

I think I am related to Charles Wesley Sullivan and Maria Cavey. My G. G. Grandfather (Henry Sullivan) lived next door to them in 1880 at 875 West Pratt street in Baltimore Maryland.

How can I reach these people? I have a lot of information, and am looking for more connections.

Delighted to dicover the Family Cavey site ,and would like to add to it with info from our side.

James 1882 was my husband's grandfather. He married Mary Elizabeth Carroll in 1903. They had 3 children:

- Patricia1904 James1905 and Rhys 1912. As James 1905 was in Ireland with his grandmother in 1911, he did not appear in the Census and was therefore overlooked . Patricia married William Medhurst in1934 and had 2 children Patricia1938 and David1942, she died in 1947. James married Gladys Kenney in 1932 and had 1 son Peter James 1934. Peter married Patricia Day in 1958, the have 3 children Helen 1959, Ian James1961 and Philip Adrian1967. Helen married Ian Cuddeford in 1980, they have 2 children:

- Mark 1989 and Kayleigh 1991. Ian married Susan Gadsby in 1986. They have 3 daughters Sophie 1991 and twins Maia and Eve 1998. Philip married Katherine Smith in 1995 and they have 2 children Alice 2000 and James 2003.James 1905 died in 1994. This brings this branch up to date. Thanks for a great site, Pat Cavey.

I am interested in tracing my family tree back further

I typed in Cavey on google search, and it directed me to this site. My mouth dropped open when i saw how many Cavey's there were in the world.

How can i subscribe to the web site.

Hello everyone.

My name is Bill Elliott, and I am a new member of the group. I am a descendant of Ezekial Cavey and Rebecca Tacey. I am writing to ask for your assistance. I know that Rebecca Tacey's father, George W. Tacey, served for the Union in the Civil War. However, I am not sure if any Caveys connected to Ezekial served. There are a number of Caveys on the Civil War muster rolls for Maryland, but I have not yet been able to make a connection. If anyone could help me, I would greatly appreciate it. I am a member of the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War and we are currently attempting to locate the final resting places of our ancestors in order to register them with the Veterans Administration and insure the safe keeping of their burial sites and/or the placement of grave markers to memorialize their service. Any information you could give me about Caveys, Union or Confederate, would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

He was very surprised to receive a call from France !

We have had a long discussion about many subjects...

He has received the four pictures I have won on eBay last year. In his opinion, these pictures are the originals while the pictures he has in hand previously (he got them from his mother) and which were digitalised by Nikie were olds reprints.

Bill is in good health, in so far as one can be after a cardiac attack.

That was nice to heard of him and a great moment.

Kindest regards.

Hi Carole

Will do it right now!

Thanks for any help!

Hello again!

I sent Bill Elliot an invitation to our site. Hope that it will be helpful to him!

Hello!!!!

If Pam could send me her email address I will send her an invitation to the Cavey Family site at My Family.com and she could be in touch with Maryland Cavey's.

Hello. My name is Bill Elliott, and I believe I may have some common ancestors with Nike Lathe Ervin.

I am also a descendant of Ezekiel Cavey and Rebecca Tacey. I noticed the information that Ms. Ervin posted on the Cavey family site. My genealogical interests focus mainly on the Civil War period as I am an active member of the Sons of Union Veterans here in Maryland. I know that Rebecca Tacey's father, George W. Tacey, served with the Potomac Home Brigade.

I was curious if Ezekiel Cavey's father and/or uncles served as well. There are two Caveys, Joseph and William ,in the muster rolls of the 1st Maryland Infantry. Do you know if they are related to Ezekial? If so, I would love to know. I am currently in the process of having the graves of several Civil War ancestors registered with the Veterans Administration to assure their future care and preservation. I would love to do this for the Caveys as I am doing it for George W. Tacey as well. Also, I would very much like to subscribe to the website and contact Ms. Ervin about our possible family links. I look forward to hearing from you as it sounds like we may be of distant relation.

My dad was born in Towson, Maryland (I think) but sent to Florida to live with Sam & Florence Winters in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida around 1930 and grew up her and met my mother, Muriel Marie (Kelly) Clapp, in 1945. They married in 1947 and remained in Ft Lauderdale where both are still living. My brother is Gregg Frank Cavey, which also lives here in Florida.

I travel all over the world and have yet to run into another Cavey and extremely surprised to see so many of you are out there. Especially since no one can ever pronounce our name!

I travel to Maryland quite frequently and would love to see any of my relatives.

My name is Bill Elliott, and I live in BelAir, Maryland.

I am a descendant of Ezekial Cavey and Rebecca Tacey. Rebecca's father, George W. Tacey, was my great-, great-, great- grandfather. I know that he was a Union soldier in the Civil War, and I would like to decorate his grave with a Veteran's Administration marker denoting his service with the Ist MD PHB Infrantry. As his descendant, I am a member of the Sons of Union Veterans.

I know his military service, but, unfortunately, I don't know much else about him. Having seen his grave marker and his name on the Cavey site, I thought someone might be able to tell me more about him and about Ezekial Cavey. Also, it would be fun to find some distant relatives that I've never had the chance to meet. I'd appreciate any assistance in this matter.

Thanks,

Hi, I am a cavey from Baltimore, Maryland. I belonged to the Cavey group several years ago, but I go discouraged and stopped looking. Please put me back on your list. It would be greatly appreciated.

I have been trying for 10 years to find some information. Can anyone help?

My daughter found this website which has our names on it. I am related to Sharon Zinkand of Arbutus, MD.

I'd like to find out how to become a member to access the rest of the info that is marked private. Also under the Maus name on the Lathe Family, there is a new one - her name is Kelli Taylor Maus daughter of Patricia Ann Kick and Jeffrey Maus. I look forward to hearing from you.

This is neat!!

Oh, on also on the Lathe Family page, the last name of Sharon is listed as ZINKLAND - it has an L in it.

Jean-Luc,

Megan Cavey-Mangold posted information in the US Cavey family site on (Maryland) 26 November 2003. I have a suspicion that the Joseph Cavey she mentions in her statement may be my husbands long-lost grandfather. He seems about the right age and most certainly in the Maryland region. The Joseph Cavey we are referring to served in the UK during WWII, and was last known (in the 40's) to have lived on Herbert Avenue in Maryland. This is all the information we have. If you have contact details for Megan or could somehow put us in touch, please let us know.

Thanks ever so much

Hello Jean-Luc.

I am a Cavey ( Mothers Side ) from Howard County, Maryland. My maternal grandfather, Rueben Cavey married Mary Key, a direct descendent of Francis Scott Key. I am interested in joining your group. Have much data and documentation on the Cavey and Key clan of Maryland and Virginia.

Please advise how I go about becoming a member.

I would like to join the Cavey mailing list.

My name is Carole Graham and I my great-great grandmother was Fannie May Cavey, born in Ohio in 1854. Her father was Alfred B. Cavey, born in Maryland in 1829.

I am hoping that maybe some of the folks on the mailing list know more about Alfred's ancestry.

Thanks!

Tried to access the yahoogroup site to add information but could not gain access. Please let me know how to do that. I wanted to comment and send some information for Pat Riveria who was inquiring about an Ohio Family. I think this is probably her connection.

Cyrus J. Cavey b abt 1865 died 1917 married Letisha C. Tippie Cyrus was the son of John W. Cavey b 1837 Carroll County, Ohio and first wife Mary Willis.

John W. Cavey was the son of Levi Cavey born about 1812 in Maryland. Levi's wife was Margaret (believed to be Allison) Levi and wife and John and wife are all buried in Jackson County, Ohio. I do not have any of the children of Cyrus and his wife.

Please send me the info to access the site. I also descend from Levi through his daughter, Sarah Cavey Graham Glassburn whose second husband was Alfred Glassburn. They were the parents of my gggrandmother Almira Glassburn Grover.

Anyone with information about Cavey's in Ohio i.e. John and Mary (maiden name Tippy) Cavey would greatly be appreciated those are my grandparents and i would like to go back farther email me at {patrivera1 at aol.com}.

I am a fourth generation Cavey from the ohio area.

I have some additional information, so please whoever gave the information (D.Jo and Carroll Erskine) please email me so we can exchange info.

Hello ,

I am posting this message to maybe find some more information on my family.

My father passed a few years ago (Courtney Cavey), he was an only child. His father is Gilbert Cavey , passed in 1980 married to Arlene Dillow passed in 1984 . Gilbert has 4 brothers; Thomas, Joseph, William, and George. His sisters are Lola, Virginia and Mary. This Cavey clan were born in Baltimore,MD grew up in Morrell Park and Pigtown.

I have no other information as of yet but would like to find out more if possible. With so many Cavey's in Maryland I would think someone else might know more

Hi, Nicole

I have sent a long message to you on the MyFamily.com website as New Content. Hope you got it.

George R. Cavey Jr.

P.S. You had previously given me you email address as {nervin at va.prestige.net}. However, I find that that is now an invalid addy. Hope to hear from you soon.

Hi, Nicole

Forgive for being so late in getting around to answering your message to me on May 23 of this year. I was out of town for an extended period, then you were out also; then I misplaced your message and just recently relocated it, etc., etc.

At any rate, I believe we are more closely related than you suspected. My paternal Grandfather, George William Cavey, was your Ggrandfather’s (James Cavey) brother, hence your great uncle. He was the one who carved the Rumson Memorial at Harpers Ferry. Ezekial Cavey and Rebecca Tacey where my Ggrandparenents. George William Cavey married Frances Zepp, who was probably related to Sarah Ellen Zepp. (I don’t think they were sisters because I knew two of my Grandmother’s sisters (Katherine (Kate) Zepp and Elizabeth (Bess) Zepp. She had several brothers whom I did not know and possibly other sisters). My Ggrandmother Zepp’s maiden name was Albright.

My grandparents settled in Woodstock, MD and raised six children, all deceased. My father, George Raymond Cavey, was their eldest child and was born on June 12, 1899. My grandfather worked periodically as a stonecutter, principally on various monuments in Washington, DC, and also had a small farm in Woodstock. Later, the family moved to Baltimore where my father went to work for GENERAL ELECTRIC and met my mother, Ida Edna Walch. GE moved my father to its Philadelphia plant in 1929 where I was born on Feb 25, 1934. I have an older sister, Doris Rae Cavey McKay, who has two sons and a daughter and a grandson and granddaughter. I am single, having never married. My remaining living relatives are my Aunt Katherine’s two daughters, Delores and Betty Young, my uncle, William Amberman, who married my aunt Marian, and six cousins (two sons and three daughters) who are the children of my father’s youngest brother, Ernest, who, unfortunately, became estranged from the family and my sister and I have lost touch with our cousins. I would like to locate them if possible.

So, as you see, we are fairly closely related, cousins of some sort, (Three times removed???) . I’m not sure what the correct term would be, but my great uncle James was your great great grandfather.

If you can add anymore information to the above, or if I can supply you with more information, please let me know.

Hi, Jean-Luc

I am trying to send an e-mail letter to Nicole Lathe Nervin and the email address that I have ({nervin at va.pretige.net}) doesn't seem to be valid. Could you give me her correct address, or have her contact me. I believe we are close relatives (Greatcousins).

Thank you.

I just read Nicole Ervin's Posting on Bill Norris. I was so glad to hear that he's been located. I jotted down his address, and sending him a card.

Thanks for sharing the information/update with us.

My name is Christi Dimbath. I am the daughter of Fred F. Cavey, son of Jesse V. "Jake" Cavey of Glouster, OH. I now live in Wilmington, OH and have a brother, Jay Cavey who lives in Chicago, IL.

I find your website very interesting. I was not aware of any Caveys other than those in Ohio.

To whom it may concern:

Yesterday, I sent an email saying that I am George William Cavey's (the sculptor of the Rumsey Monument at Harper's Ferry) great grandson, and that I would be interested in sharing family history with other Cavey's.

However, I am not sure my email address was included with the message. It is {gcavey at nyc.rr.com}. Hope to hear from someone soon.

My name is George Cavey. I am the oldest grandson of George William Cavey who carved the granite Rumsey memorial in Harper's Ferry.

He was the brother of James Cavey and the son of Ezekiel and Rebecca (Tacey) Cavey. I would be interested in sharing information about my branch of the Cavey family with other Caveys, and learning of my families origins.

Please contact me with appropriate info as to how to do this.

My name is James Patrick Cavey of Churchton MD son of Patrick William Cavey and grandson of the late James Patrick Cavey 12/30/1912 to 3/17/1953, he died when my father was very young and my father lost touch with his fathers family.

I'm a bit interested in catching up with them. He was raised in Washington DC and said his father was from Virginia somewhere. if you would lead me in the right direction I'd be much abliged.

Bill Found

His health isn't great. I understand he had a heart attack and is plagued with congestive heart failure. He has no phone.. or computer hookup.That I know of and needs an emotional boost. His address is 101 Center Place, Apt. 200, Dundalk, MD 21222. ( I think this place is senior citizen’s apartments).

If any of you Marylanders could stop in and see him that would be a great uplift to him I am sure.

Hi All,

I have not had any word of or from Bill Norris. I know Niki was in touch with his daughter though and she might know of his where abouts. If anyone hears from him please let me know too.

Thanks!

No news from Bill Norris as well as his wife despite the popup window I've put on the site since months.

Don't understand what has happened.

I was wondering if anyone has heard form Bill Norris. Haven't heard from him in a long time.

To become a member of this site you just nee to sing-in for free.

If you have some issues lets the group know : I'm sure that Sharon and Nikky will help you.

My yahoo email is {kwlredkat at yahoo.com}. I would like to look at the cavey family tree and will need the pass word. My grandmother was Anna Cavey married to Robert Peddicord

I'm a new Cavey to your site: Ruth Ann Cavey Suggs, born in Elkhorn, WI to Justin Vincent Cavey and Elizabeth M. Kadlec Cavey.

A few months ago I scanned your old site and found information from Thomas J. Cavey in Singapore to be a probable match to my lineage. I tried to e-mail him, but his address was undeliverable. I see now he's in Jakarta. I'd love to hear from him: I believe his grandfather was my grandfather's uncle. Could you hook us up?

Thanks.

I'm sorry I haven't been reachable. I think I let my Yahoo mail account lapse. The Cavey mail has been forwarded to my main e-mail account.

Thomas--my great-grandmother was a Cavey from Donegal. He first name was either Jane or Agnes--my sources aren't consistent. I would like to know about your Cavey ancestors and I will tell you all I can about mine.

Thanks,

Hi, I wish to get information about a relative of mine.

Mariah Cavey Born 1844? Died 4/8/1931

Married to Charles W. Sullivan

She lived in Oella and worked at the Oella Mill where she met Charles Sullivan. They later moved to Baltimore City and lived on Dillon Street.

I would appreciate any help.

Thanks

I'm searching for some of the pictures.

I know I saved them on the computer but I can't seem to find them. My kids and I were in a few of the pictures.

If I find them I will pass them on.

Jean-Luc...

I believe that I can help this gal.

My Great Great Grandfather was Lycester Ezekeal Cavey. He went by the name Zeek. nickname. My Grandmother had a brother named Lycester Ezekeal.. and I believe he named his kid the same. this name went on. My Grand Uncle Theodore Cavey is still alive and lives in the Baltimore area.

If she wishes to email me, perhaps I can give her his number (it is listed in the telephone book). I am sure that he would be the one to answer her questions or send her in the right direction.

In the meantime I will ask my father if he can answer any questions..
