ELDER EDWARD BATE TO NATHAN BATES
I have posted this information before, but in the computer age records change continually so maybe someone has something new.
Through DNA I know that I descend from Elder Edward Bate of Weymouth.My paperwork trail only takes me back to my gggrandfather Nathan Bates b. 1795/6 somewhere in VT.His wife Charity Tempel b. 1801/02 somewhere in NY.In 1820 they were in Wilson, Niagara Co., NY, moving on to Steuben Co., NY circa 1825 with their first born Edward Stubbs Bates b. 1823 Townawanda, NY.Except for when and where these two died and are buried the family has been pretty well traced.However, the pre-1820 years are almost completely unknown.Many of the Elder Edward's descendants through both Increase and Edward Jr. migrated to VT although it was usually a generation or two later.Those are the ones that I have been looking at and have been trying to fit my Nathan into.So far my search has been fruitless.I was able to eliminate Rutland Co., VT as a possibility through a view of the vital statistics for that county, but have not seen any others.Windsor Co., VT seems like it may offer some possibilities.Anyone out there with any information please contact me.Any tiny bit of advice or information would be greatly appreciated.In addition, I have a copy of the "Genealogy of the Descendants of Edward Bates of Weymouth, Mass."I would be happy to do a look up if someone needs one.Thank you.
