Ok, you just mentioned that you could not connect to these CATES lines. My line CATES is
the Indian line. Just suggesting alternative since you mentioned you could not find the
CATES line MARY was connected to.
If his DNA test was totally European than he/you are not related to my Indian CATES Line.
Did you have the specific test CHECKING for NATIVE DNA? Anyway, If you are going to blog
about the CATES line at least put a disclaimer that there IS a line of CATES family that
IS INDIAN, I know my family and the tribe would appreciate it.
Sincerely,
Kim

Were you referring to my husband's "indian" claim? My husband's paternal
DNA tested r1b1b2 - which is totally European. His maternal mtDNA tested H - European
too.
Some in his family were upset (or seemed that way) when we explained that the Cates were
NOT indian. I do blog about the Cates/my own family history. Will be posting Cates family
pictures as soon as I can locate the photos.

If you're a distant cousin, stop by and say hello. We are trying to form a family
tree. My husband knows nothing about his paternal grandfather. His dad's name is
Milton Cates (East Texas)

interested. My email is monniejean(a)comcast.com and my home address is 6655 SW Queen Lane,
Beaverton, OR 97008. Family members are me and husband Dee. Kids are all grown and have
families and I'm trying to figure out which one is going!
to take charge of the family history. I have had no luck finding out which Cates family
my Mary belonged to, but I have some suspicions from Cates records in Kentucky and
Missouri. Thanks, Bruce.> > -------------------------------> To unsubscribe from
