I am hot on the trail of another of my ancestral lines in Tn and I have just
rec'd some data that pertains to the CATE/s line that was in Blount CO TN:
this is from: LOGANS CHAPEL CHURCH'S FIRST FAMILIES ARE TRACED
Friday February 25, 1965 Maryville Alcoa Times
Martha Kidd, dght of William, married Hon. Charles L. Cates, wh owas a
lawyer in Maryville, and had four children: Josie Cates married Dr. Sam
George. Their grandson, Marvin Mitchell is Vice President of ALCOA; Charles
T. Cates, Jr, deceased, lawyer and former Attorney General of Tennessee;
Lula Cates, married Mr. Knabe, lawyer of Knoxville, both are deceased. They
had two sons James Cates deceased married Neppie Hannum, and had one son. He
was postmaster in Maryville.
At the time the above item was written the church was celebrating it's 175th
