This line looks pretty good until you get to Dolph's grandparents. "Texas Handbook On-line's" biography of Dolph Sr., states in part.

BRISCOE, DOLPH, SR. (1890-1954). Dolph Briscoe, Sr., cattleman, was born on September 1, 1890, in Fulshear, Texas, one of four children of Judge Lee Adolphus and Lucy (Wade) Briscoe. His father was a planter, jurist, rancher, and descendant of Andrew Briscoe.qv His mother was a granddaughter of Randolph Foster.qv On October 1, 1913, Briscoe married his cousin Georgie Briscoe, who resided in Fulshear, and a year later the couple moved to Uvalde. Their son, Dolph Briscoe, Jr., became the fortieth governor of the state of Texas.

Who was Lee Adolphus Briscoe and who were his parents? What about this Georgie who was his cousin? What might be the correct line from Andrew Briscoe to Dolph?
