I believe my Sylvanius CATES was born in MO. in 1885. But I am unable to find anything on him. How can I find out where in MO he was from?

Response to posting by Vivian Cates re Cates in NC before 1800.
Synthia Cates was born 30 October 1798 in NC. She married Robert Adams
3 January 1813 in Hopkins County KY. Robert and Synthia were in what
later became Searcy County AR by about 1817. There were one or two Cates
families who also came to Searcy County. I have no info on Synthia's
parents.
Does anyone have any possible connections to Synthia? Any help
appreciated. I don't have any info at all on any of the Cates in NC
families. I am just starting to work on this line.

After years of research still tryng to sort out CATO/CATE/CATES families
in North and South Carolina before 1800. The spelling seems to have been
interchangeable especially in the early records.. Not much activity on the
lists lately and have forgotten to which ones I am still subscribed. Will
see what bounces and rejoin and/or repost accordingly..
Has anybody on the list personally abstracted or does anyone have a copy
of the original will and/or loose estate papers for either a THOMAS or a
ROBERT CATE? The reference I have is Book A page 66, Orange County, North
Carolina. Written 5 November 1765, proved May 1767. Was this for a THOMAS
or a ROBERT CATE?
This information came from some series of postings to some of these
lists a couple of years ago. One lisitng has this will for ROBERT and one
series of posted abstracts has this will for THOMAS. While the abstracts
read slightly different. The wife's name and most of the heirs seem to be
the same. The reference seems to be the same, too.
Thought I would see what I could get from the lists before sending money
to the North Carolina Archives. Any assistance appreciated.

Hi cousins and friends! Your help will be appreciated.
I know that most of you are into genealogy as I am and if you
have ever visited an older cemetery, you know what deplorable
condition many of them are in. Are you aware that many states
permit building on cemeteries if they are beyond a certain age?
Firms will bulldoze right over headstones without so much as
an "I'm sorry that we're burying your ancestors and their history
will be permanently lost but that's bu
