Hi! Just wanted to let you guys on the CATE list know that I have a lot
of CATE information scattered throughout my CATO/CATER homepages because
of the closeness of the spellings. Most of this is concentrated in NC,
but there are a few others here & there.
Also, I've seen reference to a CATER pond/stream or something along
those lines (I don't have it in front of me) in Orange Co., NC. Then,
I'm showing the following 2 VA deeds on James CATE:
James Cate
Greensville Vol. 2, pg. 238, 1795. This indenture made the 21 st
day of Sept.,
1795 between James BURGE & Lucretia his wife of the County of
Prince George of the one part & James Cate of the aforesaid county of
the other part. Thence across the said branch to
John Cato's line,
thence along the said Cato's line to a beginning. To have & to
hold...Signed James BURGE & Lucretia (X)
BURGE. Wit: John CATER, Jeremiah MEACHHAM, Reuben (X)
TUCKER
James Cate
This indenture made this Thirtieth day of October in the year of
our Lord 1804 between James Cate & Mary his wife of the County of Prince
George of the one part & William EDWARDS of the County of before of the
other part...down the said Branch to Fountain's Creek thence across the
said Creek to
John Cato's
line thence along the said Cato's line to the Beginning. Nathl.
RAINS, John Cate, Henry MITCHELL, Jordon EDWARDS. Signed James Cate &
Mary (X) Cate. Greensville December Court 1804.
(These deeds are shown in full on the VA page)
Does anyone have information on the above James CATE?? He has land
adjoining John Cato's & John Cater (probably Cato - these 2 names were
constantly interchanged) is shown as a witness. We're trying to make
sure this CATE isn't a CATO! We're missing a James Cato that shows up
later in MS, but can't find anything on the above man to prove or
disprove if this was him!
Thanks,
Bonnie
