My existing setup is:
1. The ecommerce store setting for "Require Customer Role" is set to "Y"
2. The 3 catalogs are not associated with a store
3. Each of the 3 catalogs have a different Party with Role set to
"Customer" and each Party has "Customer" Role assigned
4. Categories tab (for each catalog) has the base rollup categoryId set
for "Browse Root" and "View Allow"
5. Each "Browse Root" is "MakeTop"
My result is that each of the logged in users sees the same "Browse
Root" catalog. My intention is to have each one see a different "Browse
Root". What should I be looking at in my configuration to make it
operate in this manner?

Yes, in the catalog manager, the parties tab will allow a party to view
the catalog. Just make sure that you don't have your catalog associated
with a store otherwise the store permission will allow everyone to view
it.
