The celebrated Sir Julius Caesar, master of the rolls, temp. James I., was son of one of Queen Elizabeth's physicians, who according to Fuller's Worthies, (ii. 326) was descended from the ancient family of the Dalmarii in Italy. In the epitaph on Sir Julius Caesar, written by himself, and formerly existing at Great St. Helen's, in London, he is styled "Julius Dalmare, alias Ciesar." But according to a more recent authority the original family name was Adelmare. Peter Maria Adelmare of Treviso, near Venice, L.L.D., had a son, Caesar Adelmare, M.D., who settled in England in 1550. This gentleman had several sons, one of whom received the baptismal name of Julius; this was the celebrated Sir Julius, who adopted his father's praenomen as a fixed surname for his family. Lodge's Life of Sir Julius Caesar. The name still exists in the county of Surrey, principally in humble life. See anecdotes in English Surn., vol. i., page 209. A correspondent at Godalming writes: "We have here more than one Julius Caesar; in fact, we have twelve Caesars, all of one family. Julius Caesar, the younger, is a noted cricketer, and one of the Eleven of All England."
Cæsar: In the registers of Croydon, Surrey, are found the names of Susanna Cæsar, daughter of John and Rebecca Cæsar, born in 1695, and of John Cæsar, vicar of the parish, who was buried in 1719. There were also other Cæsars at Waddon in this parish early last century (Nic.). Probably the Cæsars of Surrey were originally connected with the distinguished knightly family of that name of Benington, Herts, in the 17th and 18th centuries. The Benington Cæsars, originally named Adelmar, after their ancestor the Count of Genoa, in the 9th century, subsequently adopted the name of the mother of their Italian ancestor, a daughter of the Duke de Cesarini (Salmon's "Herts.").
