There is a book on the Choate Family. Christopher Choate born January
01, 1748/49 Bedford County, Virginia and died after Aft. September 1837
McNairy County, Tennessee. I don't know if children are shown in book
or not.

Is there any possible connection between this Christopher Choate and the
Christopher Choate who appeared on the 1778 tax list for Washington County,
Tennessee (then western North Carolina)?
I am descended from Vesta Zipporah Choate and suspect the Christopher Choate
from the 1778 tax list of being her father.

Hello Everyone,
Does anyone know and have documentation for allied families who migrated with
the various descendants of Christopher Choate who moved from Baltimore/Anne
Arundel Counties Maryland to what is now Franklin Co., VA (several earlier
incarnations)?
Any speculation on why the moved beyond the desire for land, etc.
Thanks, Janet Hunter
Hi All,
This came across my radar screen. I don't know these folks, but it's always
fun to find out our grandpappys' high school activities (be they good or
requiring further discipline!)

Subject: [TXHUNT-L] Panthers Win Game From Celeste
Panthers Win Game From Celeste
In a practice game last Friday afternoon with the Celeste High School
team, the Panthers won their first baseball game of the season by a score of
6 to 2.
The game was unusually fast and well played. Curtis Choate, for Wesley,
and Lanningham*, for Celeste, each struck out ten men. Stegell gets credit
for hitting the first home run of the season, which he did while hitting for
Reuben Choate in the seventh inning. Curtis Choate and Lane each got a three
bagger. In another baseball outing against Burleson, the names of the
players for Wesley were listed as Turner, Hale, McNatt, Curtis Choate, Lane,
Nelson, Jimmy McDonald (from Celeste), Segell, Schroeder, Reuben Choate, and
Leslie.
The players for Burleson were Beck, Cameron, Cody (? from Celeste),
Choate, Orr, Goard, McElreath, Mitchell, Sickles, Cannon. The score of this
game was 9 to 6, in favor of Burleson. McDonald got a three base hits and
stolen bases were by Cody and McDonald. (March 15, 1928, The Wesley Pilot)
* Does anyone know this Lanningham from Celeste?
I have a Rosetta Choate in my files but do not have a marriage for her.
She was the daughter of Francis Marion Choate and Sarah Angeline Briscoe.
My Rosetta was born in 1866 in Arkansas. Might this be her. Good luck
in your hunting.

I found this on the web but don't know the connection except my Choates were
in Tennessee also. Does anyone have the first name of this Shoate ? John
Sevier was an early TN governor if I recall correctly. ~Paula~

"About 1771, he (John Sevier) visited the Holston country, carrying some
goods with him for trade, and repeated the visit in 1772. At the Watauga Old
Fields, on Doe river, near its junction with the Watauga, he witnessed a
horse-race, where a large, savage fellow named SHOATE took from a traveling
stranger his horse, pretending that he had won him in a bet
......................
This SHOATE became a noted horse-thief, and was pursued and killed about
1779-80"
