William Mack "Mackey" Wolverton was married three times.

He married first Mary Drucilla Vinson in Robertson County, Texas on December 24, 1889. They divorced in Milam County, Texas on December 01, 1900. They had four children as follows:

1) Walter Snead Wolverton - b. December 23, 1890
2) Daniel Hubert Wolverton - b. September 28, 1892
3) Bertha Lillian Wolverton - b. May 19, 1896
4) William Taylor Wolverton - b. November 1897

He married second to Anna Pradat in New Orleans about 1902. They had been together 8 years at the time of the 1910 Census. The marriage ended about that time. No children and no other records of this marriage.

He married third to Dora Klumpp Pradat in New Orleans on April 02, 1912. She was the widow of William Pradat and sister-in-law of Anna Pradat. They were still together in 1940. They may have divorced between 1940 and his death in 1946. They had one child:

1) William Thomas Wolverton, b. December 23, 1912

Mackey married his first wife Drucilla when both were only 15 years old. They lived in Hearne, Robertson County, Texas where he worked for the H&TC Railroad. He and Drucilla separated in 1897 and he apparently lost his job with the railroad. In 1900 he was living in Galveston where he worked as a day laborer. He and Drucilla divorced on December 1, 1900 and he moved to New Orleans and took a job as a streetcar motorman for the New Orleans Transit Autority. Over the next 35 years he held various positions for the Transit Authority and for the City of New Orleans Police department. These included motorman, inspector, transit security office and an officer in the New Orleans Police Department.

He retired from public service about 1935 and he and Dora bought a house in Lacombe, St Tammany Parish where he was employed in 1940 as a truck driver for a whosesale distribution company.

He died intestate in November 1946 and because of his many marriages and different children, the probate of his estate dragged out over the next 2 years. The children he had with Drucilla in Texas had to obtain birth certificates in Limestone and Robertson Counties, since Texas did not institute state wide birth registration requirements until 1910. To top that off, his second son, Daniel Hubert had dissappeared in 1922 and a certain time was required to search for him; after which, he was declared legally dead by the probate court. Lawyer fees got most of the estate. In 1948 Dan Hubert's daughter Kathryn Gorman received an $87 check as her father's share of the estate. (Her father was finally found alive living in Brooklyn in 1953).
