In trying to sort our the Henry W. Cave family in Milam, I have been following the Hairston messages.....and I am lost. Some say Martha Dodd Hairston (1855-1941) is dau of Sarah Cave who is d/o Henry W. Cave. I find twelve children for H.W. (no Sarah): John B., Martha, Nancy Elizabeth, Clark Uriah, Henry Wayne, Francis Marion, Lucy Ann, Mary Jane, Hiram David, Permelia (called Mellie), James Monroe, and Jefferson Davis. Seems the "Mollie Cave" stated as cousin of Martha Dodd would be Amelia "Molly" Cave possibly born abt 1848 Clarke Co. Miss. who married James J. Hairston. Appears her marriage is recorded to a J.J. Houston in Burleson Co Dec. 21, 1865. John B. Cave had another dau Louisa Ann who md Ashley Haywood Dodd and their son was Charles Madison Dodd. If Mollie & Martha are both nieces of Lucy (dau of Henry Cave), they would be cousins. But, maybe they were not? I am missing something?
