I have little other information on this family.
In a Will of Owen Jones of St Mary's Co., Maryland mentions
"goddau. Dorothy Cager, d/o Robert Cager" [Maryland Wills, v.1,
p.14 / Brashear,v.1, p.92-3]
Robert Cager's will was written in St Mary's County, Maryland on
August 10, 1667. It was probated on September 5, 1667. In the will
Robert Cager Jr is identified as "under age" and Dorothy, wife of
George Monroe. The estate payment to George Monroe indicates that
Dorothy, the daughter, was married at the time to George. She
couldn't have been married to William Jones until after 1667. [MD
Calendar of Wills, v.1, p.41/Brashear,v.1, p.93]
Robert Cager Jr. apparently grows up very devote. He makes a will
only about six years after his father's death and dies at the
probable age of under twenty-seven. His will is dated 24 Jan 1675
in St Mary's County, MD and probated 4 Feb 1675. He left his
entire estate consisting of "St. George's Hundred" and "Poplar
Hill Hundred" to the Protestant Ministry of St. George, whose
rector was Francis Sutton. [MD Calendar of Wills, v.1,
p.40/Brashear,v.1, p.93]
