Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
If anyone is of this line I also have an article & photos on Clifton
Bledsoe Cates, of Tiptonville, TN, that sister Mary Francis Cates sent
me.
I have not been able to tie him into my database.

We found an old book, published in about 1920 at our library's used book
sale. The title is "The Story of the United States' Marines" and says
that it was compiled from authentic records "1740-1919" by John W.
Leonard, Historian and Fred F. Chitty, U.S.M.C., Associate Historian.
In it, listed under "Croix DeGuerre Awarded to Officers," and under
"Distinguished Service Cross Awarded to Officers" was:
Cates, Clifton B., Lt., 6th Regt., 4th Brigade - Mrs. W.G. Cates,
Tiptonville, Tenn., mother.
I have no further information on these two people. Hope this will help
someone.

Hi all -
I received the following from Mark Howells the Norfolk-L Genealogy mailing
list owner and thought that it might be of interest to some of you with
unlimited connect time and free local phone call rates :-
This coming Saturday, April 24th at 4 pm Pacific Standard Time (see
below for time zone converters), the Internet broadcast show
"Generations: Find Your Roots" will be dedicating its two hour
program to UK genealogy research.
The show's host, Elon Gasper, will be joined by:
|*| Paul Milner - noted lecturer & author on UK genealogy, and
|*| Mark Howells (yours truly) - hack genealogy columnist & UK
genealogy dilettante.
We will be discussing:
~ UK research in general
~ What's new in UK research
~ Internet sources for UK research
~ Answers to your questions
=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=`=
What is "Generations: Find Your Roots" you ask?
It is a two hour program on the Internet "broadcast" by
TalkSpot.com. It's a "radio" broadcast you can listen to over the
Internet, an online chat room on the same subject as the broadcast,
a toll free number in the U.S. to call with questions during the
broadcast, and some additional bells & whistles.
In order to join the show you need:
1. A computer with a sound board and speakers.
2. A web browser (i.e. Netscape, MS Internet Explorer, AOL).
3. Real Audio software for listening to audio files (see below).
4. A pioneering spirit and sense of adventure.
Then, visit this web site ahead of time & register a user name with
TalkSpot (it's free):
http://www.talkspot.com/register.html
"Generations: Find Your Roots" show on TalkSpot.com:
http://www.talkspot.com/shows/Generations/
>From this page you can find the L&E Shows schedule, the archives of
past shows, and message boards.

Visit the site again at 4:00 pm Pacific this Saturday and log in to
join the show in progress. For help with time zones worldwide, see
these online references and time zone converters:

~~ Read the chat room conversation
~~ See graphics, pictures and even video of the us in the studio
~~ Participate in instant polls
~~ Even draw on a map with virtual crayons
The host is Elon Gasper, of Sierra Online. His love of genealogy,
combined with technology is clear with this new, fun idea for
communicating online. His trusty side kick & co-host is "Cousin
Mel" and there is a regularly scheduled segment with syndicated
columnist Myra Vanderpool Gormley each week.
P.S. We found it best to use only your web browser during the
session on TalkSpot. So close down other programs you may have
running in the background.
If you don't already have Real Audio (most of you probably do), you
can download a free copy at:

Good Hunting - Mark

If you do try it please let me know how it went. Here in the UK it would
cost me about 5 pounds total connect time and I am tied up elsewhere anyway.

Hello everyone. I came across some new info. in the library so I thought I
would repost to the list. I am looking for:
Pettis Brown b. Virginia
m. Mary Jeffries b. Virginia
They had one son that I know of named Clevarius Coleman Brown.
Clevarius Coleman BROWN b. Apr 5, 1824 in Hopkins Co, Ky d. Sep 18, 1911 in
Hopkins Co, KY
m. (abt. 1858) to Emily MASONCUP b. Jul 23, 1839 in N. Carolina d. Jul 27,
1877 in Hopkins Co, KY
m. Mary Jane (last name unknown) abt. 1880
Clevarius and Emily had the following children:
John J. b. Mar 23, 1859 in Hopkins Co, Ky d. Apr 1, 1859 in Hopkins Co, KY
Laura B. b. abt. 1861 m. Perry CRAIG abt. 1880
William T. b. 1864 in Hopkins Co, KY d. 1940 in Hopkins Co, Ky or
possibly Livingston, TN
Ferelda C. b. abt. 1866 in Hopkins Co, Ky d. abt. 1892 in Hopkins Co, Ky
m. William A. CATES on May 20, 1886 in Hopkins Co, KY
George C. b. abt. 1872 in KY
James "Wed" b. May 12, 1873 in Hopkins Co, Ky d. 1940 in Hopkins Co, KY
m. Emma RAMSEY on Aug. 29, 1897 in Hopkins Co, KY
Ferelda C. and William A. CATES are my direct line. I would like to
include a note about Ferelda: I recently found in a bunch of "junk" a
handwritten note written by my great-uncle (deceased for 13 yrs.) says that
his grandmothers name was Ferelda Catherine Brown and his father was Wiliam
Alexander Cates. However, I have military discharge papers and marriage
record of her son that says her name is Callie Brown. Also, she is listed
as Callie Brown on HER marriage application to William Cates. Could Callie
be a nickname for Catherine?
If someone connects or can help, please contact me. Thanks. Happy Hunting!
Jennifer
Still here - I've been working on another surname - giving Cates a rest for
a bit :)
If there's anyone new to the list that hasn't seen my Cates database take a
look and see if you have a connection:

Hi Folks,
The lack of activity on this list seems to be the norm for most of the
lists at this time. It must be spring fever or spring break. Of the 14
mailing lists I am subscribed to at present, all are very slow. I have one
that I only get a message from maybe once per month.
Hang in there and it will pick up again soon.
Have a nice day,

Hi All,
The Cate List will be up on the Archives in a day a two. There was an
overload of Lists to be added so you can check for it in a day or two
at:
http://archiver.rootsweb.com/
Also the list has been slow lately so no one has been unsubscribed there
just aren't any messages.

15 April 1999
FAMILY HISTORY NEWSLINE SPECIAL REPORT:
Shooting at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City
About 10:30 MDT on the morning of 15 April 1999, a single gunman
entered the Family History Library of The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints in downtown Salt Lake City. Opening fire with a
small caliber handgun, he killed an elderly female patron and a male
security guard, and wounded five others, including a Salt Lake City
police officer.
Within minutes police cornered him in a room in the library. The
gunman opened fire at the police, and was mortally wounded in the
return gunfire. The deceased gunman was identified as 71-year old
Sergei Babarin of Salt Lake City. Mr. Babarin was reported to be
schizophrenic, recently refusing to take his prescription medication.
At the time of the shooting approximately 2,700 people -- staff,
volunteers and patrons -- were in the Family History Library. Most of
these were quickly evacuated, although twenty to thirty of them hid
for hours while a police SWAT team secured the building.
A spokesman for the Family History Library confirmed that the
facility would remain closed through the weekend, saying that he
expected it would be open again on Monday morning.
The Family History Library is the world's largest genealogy library,
housing hundreds of thousands of books and millions of rolls of
microfilm. In 1998, over 800,000 patrons used library facilities. It
is located just west of Temple Square, and one block west of the
world headquarters of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day
Saints.

Looking for descendants of Henry F. and Dollie BRANNUM CATES of Southeast
Missouri, believe Dunklin County or Stoddard Co.
Dollie was born Oct 16, 1892 in Dunklin Co., MO and died 19 April 1962.
Any info greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

To all the list who have looked for my parentless Mary Ann Cates.
A kind and generous searcher of Christian Co Ky looked up this marriage of
Mary Ann Cates and Abel O. Wilson Sept 7,1844 and found the following
information
Abel O. Wilson and Solomon Cates are bound to .et al...........
Signed A.O. Wilson and Solomon Cates
So now I have a name to go with Mary Ann,either a father or a brother?
Therefore, if anyone has anything on Solomon of that area on Ky/Tn border,
you have my permission to think of me<smile>.
Would he be related to the Joshua Cates of Christian?
Just have to brag (and beg), I am so thankful,
Marion
Roberta,
I tried to complete the dates on a family sheet sent to me a long time ago.
This person had
Thomas Barnard Cate as son of Bernard Jr, son of Bernard and Jane Sykes. Do
you think
this is correct? or do you think Bernard mar to Jane had a son Bernard Jr.
and one named
Thomas Barnard Cate. The only way I can see this working is if Bernard Sr
was married
twice and there was a big age difference between Bernard Sr. and his wife
Jane. And then
he would have been in his 50s when many of his children were born. If he had
a first wife
and had son John not listed in his will but married to Sylvia Sykes then John
would not be
marrying a blood related Aunt. What do you think? It would fit in with
Joseph M D
Cates letter?
Thomas Barnard CATE b. abt 1787 Orange County, NC
married to Nancy Ann Cate b. abt 1790 [30-40 1830C]
chn:
1. Joseph Marion Dixon Cates b 5 July 185 Orange NC mar Ann Lyon 5 Jul 1815.
2. Vincent cates b abt 1818 Orange Co., NC [1850C]
3. William Cate b. 1820-1825 Orange Co., NC [1830C]
4. Charles Cates 1820-1825 Orange Co., NC [1830C]
5. Barnard Barney Cates abt 1825 Orange Co., NC [1830C]
6. Thomas Dixon Cates b. 1825-1830 Orange Co., NC
7. Reuben Cate abt 1831 Orange Co., NC [1850C]
8. Martha CATES abt 1834 Orange Co., NC [1850C]
9. Rufus Cate Ruffin abt. 1838 Orange Co., NC [1850C]
10. Alexander Cates abt 1840 Orange Co., NC [1850]
11. Rebecca Cates
Information from a family sheet sent to me. I did not do the Census work so
there may be
some differences in interpretations. The person sending this had this Thomas
Barnard
Cate as son of Bernard Jr. who was son of Bernard Sr. mar to Jane/Jennie
Sykes.
