Usually just listed a Dolph Buel or D. B. rather than the whole name of Adolphus, he was the son of Elisha and Jane Garland Stanley. Buel's father, Elisha, was shot through the head by the 'Home Guard' during the War Between the States, while he held his sleeping son, Buel, in his arms.

Some of Buel's siblings in the 1860 and '70 Fannin County census were William, John, Emily, Rebecca, Rickles Calvin, Elisha H., Telitha and Eliza.

Buel only had one arm, having lost the other in an explosion caused by dynamite.

Buel married 'Froney' Garland and had children, Millie (Brown), Lillie (Bearden), Lyndia (McKenzie), Milburn, Milton 'Babe', Wilburn and McKinley.

Buel and Froney lived their last several years on a farm owned by Bart Bearden, and later owned by Dock Bearden, in the Macedonia area of Fannin County. Both Buel and Froney were long time members of the Macedonia Church of Christ and both are buried there, as are other members of the family.
