There was some connection between the CADY family any my gg grandfather, SAMUEL WILLIAM TATE in the Sandy Mountain Community of Llano County, TX. I believe it may have been through their Masonic ties rather than family.
The CADY family was involved in the erection and dedication of a large obleisk gravemarker a few years after his death in 1898. The marker is engraved with several Masonic Symbols.
Herman Brown Library, Burnet county, TX vertical file holds information on this dedication.
Does anyone have any information on this?
