Bates in Franklin or Hampshire Counties, Massachusetts

kharmin — 29 Dec 2008 5:38:52 GMT

I've got a George Stanley Bates, reputedly born in Worthington, MA on Dec. 13, 1864. I cannot find any information about his parentage or relations, other than his statement on the census that they were both born in Maine. He named his son Wells Stanley Bates, so possibly Wells is a family name -- it didn't belong to his wife's family.

We also have an unsigned letter from 1901 with a postmark of Conway, Massachusetts; the content of the letter makes me suspect that it's from Bates relations in that part of the world.

George Stanley Bates moved to Illinois prior to 1885; he was married in Aurora, Illinois in December 1885 to De Etta Damon.

Any help is hugely appreciated. Thanks!

Looking for William Bates from Orillia, Ontatio, Canada

hmsgirl48 — 26 Dec 2008 1:37:07 GMT

I'm trying to find any information on my Great Uncle Bill. He was born somewhere around 1904 in Orillia, Ont, Canada, or Simcoe, Ont, Canada. I can't locate a border crossing or any kind of historical record on him. I do know he moved to New york at some point. He was married to Hazel and had 2 daughters Shirley and Sharon.

I'm also looking for any info on his parents:
William Charles Bates
1885 Seabright, Ont, Canada / ? England

Lillian Elizabeth Miller? Bates
11/20/1879 London, England / Aft 1960 Indianapolis, IN

Lillian was very poor and was sent as a servent to a family in London with the last name of Miller. When my mother asked her in 1958 she could not remember her true families last name.

William "Chas" Bates fought in WW1 and was wounded. He fell inlove with a nurse in England. After returning home from the war the family story is that he left for a loaf of bread and never came back. Rumor had it he returned to his love in England.

That is all I know of him. We just recently found a picture of him in my Great Aunts collection. My father and myself seem to resemble him a great deal.

Any info at all would be much appreciated!! Thanks!!

John Bates b 1804 SC d 1865 AL - Washington "Hall" Bates 1830-1880 AL

John Married Frances???
John's son - Washington m Irenna Wheatley
This is my line from Washington
Washington - Henry Jackson - James Alonzo - Archie Lee - Jerry Wayne Sr. - Me

Looking for anyone who has any information on where John came from. Most trees show descendent of original immigrant John Bates but DNA has shown otherwise. We do have a match with a descendent of William Bates b 1802 SC who married Sarah Hembree so I think John and William are brothers but can't make the connection.

Any information would be great.

Thanks

Bates - Carroll Cty GA, Jefferson Cty AL, DNA Results

tbtbms — 20 Nov 2008 9:16:02 GMT

I am trying to find the connection between the following:
John Bates b1804 m Frances d 1865 Jefferson, AL
William Bates b1802 SC m Sarah Hembree
Dennis Bates b1813 m Martha

They live either in the same house or same land in the 1850 Census of Carroll County GA. I can't find anything on if they are brothers, etc. There is also a sister, Eliza who is shown living with the Steadham family next door and then later with Dennis on later census records. The Steadham family has an "Elanor" born in the same time period who could possibly be her sister.

I am from the John Bates b 1804 SC m Frances ???
My line is through his oldest, Washington A "Hall" Bates

Everything I've been shown my whole life shows my John from Daniel b VA all the way through to the original immigrant. We now know that this is not the case.

Our DNA is a match for a descendent of William Bates but I can't find anything to tell me where William's family line is either. I'm making an assumption that John and William are brothers since both born in SC around the same time.

Also, we have a "cousin match" with Martin Bates
Rutherford, NC to Polk, TN.

If anyone has any further information on any of this please let me know. I've become addicted to this.....

Edmund aka Benjamin Bates b. ~1802 - 1806 in NY and possibly migrated to Ontario, Canada before ending up in Michigan sometime between March and August of 1850 according to Census.
Possibly married prior but in 1850 census married to Dency aka Elsie/Elsia. Her maiden name was probably Woodward or Woodard. She married 1st. Joseph or Joachim Wells, so when they married she was probably a Wells.
Her children show up in 1850 and 1860 census listed with last name Bates, but were really Wells'

PLEASE NOTE, THIS WAS POSTED FOR REFERENCE ONLY. I AM NOT RELATED TO, NOR AM I RESEARCHING THIS FAMILY, I’VE ONLY DONE A COPY AND PASTE FROM OUR LOCAL NEWSPAPER FYI.

THIS INFO HAS BEEN POSTED WITH THE PERMISSION OF THE EDITOR OF THE COLUMBIA BASIN HERALD.

Virgil Lee Bates
Posted: Thursday, Sep 25, 2008 - 02:01:33 pm PDT
COLUMBIA BASIN HERALD, MOSES LAKE, WASHINGTON

Virgil Lee Bates, 74 of Moses Lake, passed away Tuesday, Sept.16, 2008. He was born Aug. 4, 1934, in Flint, Mich., to Lawrence and Laura Bates.

Virgil was a veteran of the U.S Army, serving in the Korean War. He received the “Good Conduct” medal and expert rifleman.

He married the great love of his life; Ruth Mae Greger, Dec. 31, 1964, (On July 26, 2002, Virgil and Ruth were sealed for time and all eternity, in the Columbia River Temple). Virgil first came to Moses Lake in 1969 with his wife, and their daughters, Ren/ and Monique. Virgil was a man of abundant energy, always working hard for his family, retiring from three different jobs: Moses Lake School district in 1992, Basic American Food Co. in 1996 and Home Healthcare in 1998. He was an avid hunter, fisherman, mechanic, storyteller, part-time inventor, and jack of all trades. In his spare time he loved to work on cars, care for the garden, and be with his family. He played the guitar and harmonica for the enjoyment of all. He taught love and compassion throughout his life by the way he treated friends, family and even strangers.

Virgil was proceeded in death by his siblings, Thomas Clayton Bates, Calvin Bates, Virginia Mireau, and Betty Bowden; his son, Mark and granddaughters, Leslie Christofferson and Heather Guy. He is survived by his beloved wife and companion of 44 years, Ruth Bates, his children, Ren/ Hancock (husband Al), and Monique Guy (husband Robert); grandchildren, Erica Lee Anderson, Karlene Christofferson, Megan Guy Sieloff (husband Phillip), Amaris Guy Fletcher (husband Mark), Nathanael Guy, Elizabeth Guy, Jedediah Lee Guy, Rebekah Guy, Jeremiah Guy, Hannah Guy, Abigail Guy, Moriah Guy, Michael Guy and Clara Guy; great-grandchildren, Joseph and Vincent Fletcher; and Virgil’s remaining sister, Donna Ebough.

Our deepest gratitude goes to the staff at Lakeridge Special Care Center and his many doctors for all their thoughtful care, to Carver’s Funeral Home for going above and beyond, and to everyone who has shown compassion to those of us still here. “God be with you till we meet again.”

troypix1 — 21 Sep 2008 2:01:27 GMT

I descend from the Bates family. One line settled in New England, another in Virginia. It is still a question if they were related in England as they seemed to come from the same area in England-Kent.
The progenitor of the Virginia family-John Isaac Bates arrived as an indentured servant.

Bedford Co., Tn Bates (Baytes)

susan54182 — 17 Sep 2008 4:05:50 GMT

In regard to the 1860 census for Bedford Co. Tn in which Unity Bates is found living with a "Martha" Bates I believe this to be an error on the part of the transcriber. I believe this "Martha" to actually be her husband Matthew. If you look at the 1850 census Matthew is approx 7 to 8 years older than Unity and Unity had not move from district 2 in Bedford county. I'm a descendant of Matthew and Unity's son, Daniel Martin Baytes. My branch of the Bates's use the original spelling Baytes. Famiily folklore is that three brothers came to Tn togather and quarreled. Two of the brothers changed the spelling of their last name to disassociate themselves from my ancestor. However, I have not been able to validate any of this info. I have additional info if you would like swap notes. susan

Marcus Bates - New Brunswick and Maine

NALFhistorian — 1 Sep 2008 11:24:10 GMT

MARCUS BATES was born circa 1839 [based on age at enlistments] in New Brunswick, Canada. Unknown if he was the 15-year old living with the widow Sybil Bates in Kingston, Kings County, New Brunswick during 1851 census (making a ca 1836 birth year). His death date is not known.
On 5 July, 1862, in Houlton, Maine, 23-yr old New Brunswick born Marcus Bates, a ship carpenter, enlisted into the 17th US Infantry for a 3-yr service. The record [US Army Enlistments, 1798-1914] said he had blk eyes, drk hair and was 59" tall (could be an error, that's not even 5 ft). He was discharged for disability on 23 Aug, 1862 from Fort Preble (Portland), Maine.
The following month began Maine's 9-month enlistment drive, and Marcus was probably still in Portland when he joined the 27th Maine Infantry Volunteers on 15 Oct, 1862, aged 23. He served until mustering out on 17 July, 1863.
Not two weeks later, on 29 July, 1863, 24-yr old Marcus W Bates of Portland, Maine, born in New Brunswick, enlisted as a substitute into the 17th Maine Infantry Regiment. He was a ship carpenter, had dark eyes, drk hair, drk complexion, and had a height of 5'5". On 6 May, 1864, he was wounded in the side during the Battle of the Wilderness. On 4 June, 1865, he and other recruits whose term of service was not yet completed were transferred into the First Maine Heavy Artillery [Red Diamond Regiment, pg 294].
His whereabouts after this time have not yet been found. I would like to find out more about his days in New Brunswick, and where he went after 1865. The war records indicate he was single at that time, and don't know if he married.

John Bates of Luzerne, Fayette Co., PA

LASpyres — 16 Aug 2008 7:43:27 GMT

John Bates b abt 1803 in PA lived in Menallen, then Luzerne, Fayette Co., PA in 1850. He must have died before 1860. Based on her tombstone, his wife was b 15 Jun 1804. She died on 6 Jul 1885 and is buried in the Hopewell Presbyterian Cemetery. Her given name is Rhoda, and her stone says Rhoda, wife of John Bates.

In 1860, 1870, & 1880 she is living with a Harn family. The relationship field in 1880 census is blank. She listed herself on the census as a weaver. John was a shoemaker in 1850 and is not listed in 1860 or after. On the 1830 census there are no children in their household nor are there any in 1850, although an Elizabeth King, age 20, is living with them.

Does anyone know Rhoda's maiden name?

Bio: John H. Bates, Lenawee Co, MI

Carol_Tilson — 16 Jul 2008 8:55:45 GMT

From "History and Biographical Record of Lenawee County, Michigan," W. A. Whitney and R. I. Bonner [W. Stearns & Co., Printers, Adrian, 1880], Vol. 2, p.p. 319-321, bio of John H. Bates:

JOHN H. BATES was born in Hartland, Niagara county, N. Y., July 31, 1816. He lived there with his parents on a farm until he was eighteen years old, and in the spring of 1834 his father, having sold out, came to Michigan and settled on section 29, in Rome. John H. lived with his father until he was married, when the farm was divided between the three brothers, John H., Perry W. and James C., and in the final settlement John H. got the west one half of the southeast one quarter of section 29, where he now resides. Since that time John H. has erected a good frame house, sheds, stables, etc., and had one of the finest orchards in the township. It was about the 9th of May that John H., in company with Ezra Bertram, walked into Adrian from Monroe. John H. was in search of his parents, who had come through Canada. His father started from his home in New York in February, on foot and alone, with a pack on his back and walked all the way through Canada. He came on ahead for the purpose of locating land and getting ready for his family, who followed him with teams through Canada, with the exception of John H., who came up the lake with the household goods. At the time there was only one road cut through the township of Rome, which is the one now known as the Territorial road, which had then been "bushed out" from Adrian through to the Chicago turnpike. The family came over the Chicago turnpike from Detroit to the junction of the Territorial road, at a place then known as Millspaugh's, and from there they came east through the woods and bushes, until they found a vacant log shanty, which stood about three miles north of where Mr. Bates had located his land. John H. finally found his parents by diligent search and inquiry, and the next work to be done was to cut a road through to the land three miles distant. This was finally accomplished, and after some time a good log house was erected and some corn planted. About the 10th of May a heavy frost killed all the leaves on the beech trees. The trees afterward partially leaved out, but the leaves only grew about half the usual size. The wood were alive with squirrels that year, and it was almost impossible for the settlers to secure their corn from their ravages. The country was filled with all kinds of game, bear, deer, wolves, and turkey being abundant. John H. at that time being young, was very fond of hunting, and for several years, especially in the winter, he spent most of his time in the woods. He supplied his own family and many of the settlers with meat, and made considerable money from the peltry. He never shot but one bear, but his mother kept an accurate account of the number of deer he killed, until the number reached over one thousand, and he says he has not the less doubt but what the total number would amount to over fifteen hundred. He never kept any account of the number of turkeys he killed, but there were thousands of them, and they could be had at any time. He never killed a wolf. The first hog he owned was killed by a bear, but that day a "dead-fall" was set for the bear, and the next morning the old fellow was found dead in the trap. He lived on the farm and assisted in clearing it up and improving it until September, 1851, when he went to California, taking the Panama route. He was absent two years and eight months, and since that time has lived in Rome. He has always been an active man in the township, and has always taken a lively interest in school and politics. He was brought up a Jeffersonian Democrat, and says his faith in that doctrine is firmer to-day than ever. He has held several minor offices in his township, but is averse to office-holding, and prefers rather to work for the election of others than himself. November 13, 1842, John H. Bates was married to Eliza H. Stockwell, by whom he has had five children, as follows: Althera, born November 23, 1843, now the wife of Theodore Mullenix, of Rome; Susan, born April 28, 1848, was the wife of Danford Meyers, now divorced; Almond W., born February 24, 1851, at home; Ellestine L., born June 30, 1855, now the wife of George O. Bostwick, of Rome; Ida P. born December 4, 1858, now the wife of Fred G. Banks, of Rome. Mrs. Eliza H. Bates was born in Ridgeway, Orleans county, N. Y., March 10, 1818, came to Michigan with her parents in the fall of 1836, and settled in Rome, this county. Her father, Curtis W. Stockwell, was born March 9, 1795, probably in Herkimer county, and died in Rome, February 17, 1858. Her mother was Therina Fisher, who was born July 27, 1799, in the same county, and died in Rome, March 13, 1880. John H. Bates' father, John Bates, was a native of Rhode Island, and was born in 1778, and died in Rome, October 11, 1862. He married Charlotte Colvin, who was born in Ira, Rutland county, Vt., in 1784, and died in Rome, in 1866.

Charles Bates/Minnie McCabe/Oklahoma

Looking for this couple living in 1930 in Cresent, Logan, OK. she is 61, he 69.
No children born unless they died young. Cannot find them in any census prior but they married about 1910 in OK, I think. She was 21, but it looks like 41, he 24. I don't know why they are showing 7 years apart.
He was born in Ohio about 1861, and she in Indiana. Her maiden name was McCabe.
Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks

Thomas Bates 1776.

I am not of the family but thought some one here would find the info helpful.

In 1776, there was a bill in committee that Thomas Bates, blacksmith, was proposing to supply the continental troops with a quantity of camp kettles, of sheet iron @ one and 1/3 dollar each, provided he can have credit for five tons of sheet iron:
Resolved, That Timothy Matlack, Esq.r be directed to write to Thomas Mayberry, of Mount holly, the manufacturer of sheet iron, to send down to him five tons of sheet iron, for which he will be paid on the delivery; and, that T. Matlack be directed to receive said iron, and deliver it out, as it may be wanted, to Thomas Bates, and receive the kettles as fast as made.

Was Elizabeth, wife of John Bates d 1666 York Co., VA, a Winston?

Kent_McMahan — 23 May 2008 3:06:29 GMT

I'm looking for any evidence that John's wife was a Winston. I'm not yet convinced that she was because my wife's ancestor, William Winston, is said by Virginia Lee Hutcheson Davis (author of the respected "Tidewater Virginia Families") to be the only Winston found in the early days of the Virginia colony. This William Winston witnessed the codicil and proved the 21 Sep 1666 York Co., VA will of John Bates. William Winston had been imported to York Co., VA by Henry Tiler/Tyler. No Winston is listed at the Jamestown settlement in 1606-1624.

I will appreciate any document citation(s) that indicate Elizabeth was a Winston.........Kent
