She married Francis Philip Eull on 17 May 1888, in Adams, Illinois, United States. They were the parents of at least 2 sons and 1 daughter. She lived in Nashville, Davidson, Tennessee, United States in 1910 and Quincy, Adams, Illinois, United States in 1920.

English (Suffolk): variant of Caddy .
Breton and French: probably a variant or an altered form of Breton Cadic, a derivative of kad, cad (Old Breton cat) ‘battle’, applied as a nickname for a warrior. The surname Cady is found mainly in Maine-et-Loire, which borders Brittany; in Brittany itself and elsewhere in France it is rare.
Perhaps also an Americanized form of German Gäde (see Gade ), Göde (see Goede ), or Köthe, all from the medieval personal name Godo.
