Bates' from Knoxville, TN
My name is Karen Strange and my maiden name is Bates.I currently live in Kodak, TN but my family is from Knoxville, TN.My dads name is Robert(Bob, Bobby, and sometimes called Red).He has 3 sisters and 1 brother-Jim Bates lives in West TN, Charlotte Bates Swaggerty, Judy Bates Hayes, and Barbara Bates Witt who all still live in the East Knoxville area.My grandmother is still alive and her name is Sybil Hines Bates.My papaw died about 25 years ago and his name was Bruce Ezra Bates.He had/has several family members too.If anyone needs any information on anyone in my family, I will be glad to research it for you.A few years ago my mom and sister-in-law did extensive research on the Bates' and they have lots of history on my family.
