My Aunt Susan McElwee was married to Lane Slate. I believe he is from MA. They had two son's, Lane, Jr. (died years ago in NY) and Webster (now living in AZ) They lived in NY for a long time before moving to California. Uncle Lane and Aunt Susan passed several years back. Aunt Susan died in CA in 1977 and I was told Uncle Lane died in AZ. I believe I was also told that my Aunt Susan was sent for burial in MA. She died first. I have no idea where Uncle Lane is buried, I would think MA. My Uncle Lane use to write, direct ect... movies and tv show's. Anyway, I am just trying to find out where Lane and Susan Slate are buried. I would also like to do a little genealogy on Lane's side to give to Webster. Anyway, I appreciate any help that you can give me. My email address is:

I do not know where he was born, but he possilby lived in New Orleans, LA or the surrounding area.

He was married to Nora Holland and together they had one child that I know of, Ivy/Iva Slate Hall(first marriage) Whitehouse (second marriage). Ivy Whitehouse being on her death certificate dated 25 Dec 1918, Manhattan, New York, but the certificate is registered in the Orleans Parish births, deaths and marriages.

Although her name is confusing in census records, her obituary says that Zachariah's wife was Leah Lawrence Binkley. She was the daughter of Joseph Binkley and Nancy Demonbreun:

Obituary:

Mrs. Slate had been ill several years, and was a resident of the St. Bethlehem Community.

Grandsons served as pallbearers.

She was born in Cheatham County, December 23, 1878, and had lived in Montgomery County most of her life. She was the daughter of the late Joseph and Nancy Demumbreum Binkley and was married to the late Z. R. Slate in 1898.

Survivors are seven sons, Ernest, Earl, Norman, A. I., Pascal, and Emanuel Slate, Clarksville, and Joe Slate, Nashville; a daughter, Mrs. R. E. Welch, St. Bethlehem, 39 grandchildren, 43 great grandchildren.

sixrwe — 2007-05-02 19:11:27Z

I'm researching my husband's family history.

Iva Slate is his paternal greatgrandmother. Iva was married to Elmer O. Hall and together they had one daughter, Marjorie Hall b. 6 SEP 1910 in Galveston, TX.

I have no other information on Iva.

I you should have any information, please contact me.

Thank you,

Re: Iva Slate

sixrwe — 2007-07-06 13:33:47Z

A little more info.

I've been told that Ivy and Elmer divorced. Ivy remarried a Whitehouse or Whitehall, I do not know when. My husband's grandmother said that she was very young. Unfortunately, Ivy died on her honeymoon, so the story goes.

Re: Iva Slate

sixrwe — 2007-05-31 00:00:14Z

I finally found a census(Galveston, Texas 1910) listing Ivy(Ivay C.) and Elmer O. Hall.

At the time of the census, Ivy was 16 years old and Elmer was 26 years old. They were not married for a year yet. No children are listed either.

Ivy lists her parents states of birth as United State for her father and Texas for her mother. Ivy is listed as being born in Texas.

Elmer's parents; father and mother born in Alabama as is he.
Elmer is listed as employed as a fireman at a stationary.

lgodwin1943 — 2007-05-09 17:23:23Z

Why are you calling Samuel Slate d 1806 "Sr."? Have you found any documentation or is it just because he has a son Samuel? Several researchers including some that died without knowing have searched for the answer to the parentage question and Peggy and I do not want to join them!

My line goes Samuel and Mary then Samuel and Elizabeth Osbrooks then Michael/Micah and Sarah Willard then Samuel Andrew Jackson Slate and Elizabeth Evollia Thomas then America Louvenia Slate and Thomas Jefferson Clark then Silas Vergil Clark then Mom and me! Louise

How about sharing the information on wife Mary Whitfield? Either with the list or me privately at w.godwin@sbcglobal.net Several of us including Peggy and I have hunted for many years. Samuel Slate d 1806 Pittsylvania co VA is the ancestor to many, many Slate descendents in the US. As to Samuel's parentage that is still unresolved. Louise

eilek2 — 2008-03-09 15:04:36Z

It's been some time since you posted this, so I'm not sure you're still actively inquiring. My family is descended from the Daniel Slate/Mary Billington Sabin line. My grandfather was Edmund L. Slate, son of Frederick W. Slate (and Milda Schmitter Slate), who was son of Luman J. (and Rose Whitcomb Slate), originally from Holyoke. In fact, many family members visited the Slate Memorial Library in Gill in the '70s. I have photos of the visit, too. We are planning a special Slate family reunion celebration in April to honor my grandfather's five children: Frederick, Barbara (my mother), Edmund, Thomas, and Christina--to record as much family history as possible. I'm also working with my cousin Stephen Slate on the family tree, including our line to Mayflower, which I'm almost certain exists. Any info you can send we would so appreciate! I'm happy to pass along other information for you. Eileen Kenney

Hello Slate Family Member, My Grandmother is a Slate, whose Father Zachariah Slate was born in Quaker Gap,Stokes, NC. between the years 1863-1874. Zachariah's Father Joseph S. Slate, was born Dec. 15, 1840 in New Kent Virginia. Perhaps George is a sibling of Joseph. Please let me know anything you find. My Grandmother is still living, her maiden name is Nancy Josephine Slate, she was the only girl and last child of ten, born to Zachariah Slate and Lelah Lawrence Binkley. She lives in Clarksville, TN and is 88 years young, as a matter of fact, I just tried to call her, and think she may be fishing today!! I hope to hear from you soon, Tiffany Greene

I searched 'Samuel Slate 1773' on yahoo and investigated the leads. For Mary Whitfield b.1736, Virginia d.1817, Pitsylvania, VA. With that information, One World Tree found a line for her (5+ generations). Father William Whitfield b.1695 d.1792. Mother Mary E. Goodman b.1695 d.1773. Hope that helps. If I am wrong by my findings, please let me know. I have only been doing this research for a month. Still learning, but having fun.

Seeking contact with researchers of the Slate family of Stokes Co NC. I am researching William George Slate, known as George, b. between 1833-1844, either in VA or NC. [CSA Pension records states that he was born in 1833 in Danville, VA, but census records 1844 in NC, probably Stokes Co NC]. He appears to have been a son of a Samuel Slate who resided in Stokes Co NC in 1860. Can anyone give me any more background information on this family?
