Caleb Ereira was a son of Jacob Ereira and Sara van Jacob Callo. He married in Amsterdam on 15 October 1879 to Elisabeth Druijf, a daughter of Jacob Druijf. Caleb and Elisabeth had together nine children but none of these children have survived a month. All children died as babies of just some days old to a few weeks old.
Elisabeth passed away on 25 November 1892 and Caleb remarried one year later to Klara Werkendam, daughter of Isaac Mozes Werkendam and Anna Mozes Vogel.
Klara passed away on 22 November 1940 and was buried, just as her husband, at Ouderkerk on 25 November 1940.
Caleb and Klara had together three children: Jacob (who survived the Holocaust), Izaak and Abraham, who left in April 1936 for Antwerp.
