Fleming, Eleanore Eulalie Cay, 1848-1934.

Raymond Cay was born at Barricas, Cuba, in 1805, the son of Jean Sauvern and Julia Pezant Cay, refugees from Santo Domingo. In 1809, the family moved to Savannah, Ga., and in 1814, to Charleston, S.C. On the recommendation of a Charleston merchant, Raymond Cay came to Riceboro, Liberty County, Ga., to manage the store of David Stetson, (1786-1836) who, with his wife Betsy Butler Stetson (1796-1834), had moved to Riceboro from New Bedford, Mass., in 1816. In 1834, Raymond Cay married their daughter, Eliza Ann Stetson. Following the death of David and Betsy Stetson, he became owner of their store and plantation.

On 19 December 1866, Eleonore Eulalie Cay married Thomas Quarterman Fleming, the son of John Sidney and Jane Quarterman Fleming of Liberty County, Ga. Lalie Cay Fleming had been a life-long friend of many of T. Q. Fleming's cousins, especially Susan Olivia Livie Fleming. Following their marriage, T. Q. Fleming ran a general store and farmed in Liberty County, Ga., and worked on railroad construction in Harris County, Ga.
