Lloyd:
The above family history you provided in a recent roll call request
would be similar to mine except my 5-great grandfather was Robert Jr.-
brother to your Benjamin.
I have been unable to find evidence or citation for William Abraham Cate
or the birth place and birth date of Robert Ezra Cate. Perhaps my
inability to find church records of Colyton, Devon - although I do have
the church records of Devonshire which include some Colyton names for
this period.
Do you have any citation for these English births and marriages? If so,
I would really appreciate that information. I have been looking for the
source of this information for several years - but to no avail.
Personal regards,
Sydney Cate
