Hi everyone,
Hoping someone out there can help me find the parents of Rebecca CAIN
who married Henry G. Gates, 1851, in Tippecanoe Co. They lived in
Shelby twp. and his parents were Henry Gates and Eleanor Rock.
Rebecca was born 1823 in Viriginia and died 1896 in Tippecanoe Co. She
is buried in Burton Cem. Have checked 1850 census records for her with
her family, but have come up empty. I have not been able to find either
a death record or obituary for Rebecca.
Would also like more information on children of Rebecca and Henry -
primarily Rosanna and Priscilla.
Children of Henry and Rebecca Cain Gates were:
1. Priscilla E. Gates b: 10 January 1853 in Tippecanoe Co., IN d: 17
March 1884 in Tippecanoe Co., IN; married W. R. Miller
2. Eliza Jane Gates b: 27 November 1854 in Tippecanoe Co., IN d. 22
January 1884 in Tippecanoe Co., IN
3. John A. Gates b: 30 November 1855 in Tippecanoe Co., IN d: 17 October
1860 in Tippecanoe Co., IN
4. Benjamin Franklin Gates b: 17 January 1859 in Tippecanoe Co., IN d:
26 January 1936 in Tippecanoe Co., IN; married Anna May Martin 8 July
1883 Tippecanoe Co., IN
5. Rosanna E. Gates b: 1861 in Tippecanoe Co., IN d: 1920 in Tippecanoe
Co., IN; married Jacob F. Fox 28 March 1886 in Tippecanoe Co., IN
Any help appreciated. Thanks!
