Callaway was the third of twelve children born to Alexander and Catherine(White)Patrick. Most historical reference's about Callaway, spell his first name with a "o" instead of an "a," I believe this to be a mistake, and have a signed document by Callaway proving he signed his name with the "a" just as his grand-mothers maiden name was spelled.

In 1846, Callaway Patrick, moved to the far southeastern part of Dallas County. Patrick was 25 when he married Rhoda I. Smith in 1847 and gave the settlement the name Patrick.

Patrick was adventurous and loved the excitement of pioneer living. In July 1843, Callaway Patrick joined President Sam Houston on a trip to make a treaty with the Indians at Grapevine Springs. The trip was unsuccessful, but on the return trip they went by Cedar Springs, then larger than the village of Dallas, to stock up on supplies from John Neely Bryan's store.
Callaway Patrick's patriotism and civic involvement was also reflected by his service to the Texas Rangers in 1845, the Mexican War in 1846, the Texas Cavalry, Company I in 1862 (Civil War) and the office of District and Deputy Clerk of Robertson County. He was a Royal Arch Mason, a Democrat and a Baptist. Callaway and Rhoda Patrick were among the one hundred twelve people who organized the Pioneers of Dallas County, July 13, 1875.

Callaway and Rhoda Patrick had nine children.
