In 1881, Alfred Cater, 3 months of age, was shown residing at Watts Street, Aston, Warwickshire, England. Other family members included: Alfred W. Cater, 26, carpenter; Mary M. Cater, 3; Sarah Cater, 30; Theodore W. Cater, 5; Thos. Cater, 2; and William Cater, 3. (Source: 1881 Census of England; Class: RG11; Piece: 3084; Folio: 59; Page: 24; Line: ; GSU roll: 1341736.)

In 1891, Alfred Cater, 10 years of age, is shown residing as a pauper with his brothers, Thomas Cater, 11; and William Cater, 13, at Aston Union Workhouse, Aston, Warwickshire, England. (Source: 1891 Census of England; Class: RG12; Piece: 2427; Folio 91; Page 10; GSU roll: 6097537.)

In 1892, Alfred Cater, 9 (along with brothers, Thomas Cater, 10, and William Cater, 11), arrived at Quebec, along with a group of 85 children from Middlemore Home in Birmingham, England, en route to Macpherson Home in Stratford, Ontario, Canada.

In October of 1905, Alfred's mother, Sarah Cater, and siblings, Beatrice Cater; Harold Cater; and Eva Cater, all arrived in Canada on the Bavarian. The Family settled in Guelph, Ontario, Canada. (EDITORS NOTE: Sarah Warner Cater died in Guelph, Wellington, Ontario, Canada, on October 16, 1926, of hernia hemiplegia and heart failure.)

On May 9, 1910, Albert Cater, 26, laborer, resident in Saskatchewan, Canada, returned to Canada from England on the Laurentic, landing in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.

On March 11, 1911, Albert Cater, 27, resident of Macklin, Saskatchewan, Canada, returned from England on the Virginia.
