Notes from Aline Brown Tate

Very little is known about James Tate and Sarah A. Flowers Tate----especially James Tate. They were living in (Texas) near Licking, Missouri when the boys were born. According to the son, James C. Tate, his father was serving in the Army during the Civil War in the New Orleans, Louisiana area. His mother received word he was sick. She took the two small boys and a slave to drive the oxcart; two barrels of salt to use as money and went to Louisiana to see her husband. When they got there she was told he had died of small pox and already buried. That was when small pox was raging there. She came back to Missouri, and later married again.

After James Alexander Tate's death, Sarah married William T. Gentry. He had come to the Mountain Grove area in 1854. Somehow he became involved with Union persons in skirmishes and was captured and taken to Springfield, MO to the Federal Stockade where he was held. Later, when released, he came home to find that his wife, Sarah had died.
[Note: the information about his wife dying, was not Sarah since she lived until the 1880's. It may have been his first wife, Martha Carr Gentry, who died in 1862 that the person supplying this information is referring to.]

Alexander lived at Big Moccasin Creek, a spur of Clinch Mountain and on the Holston River, Russell County, VA. He may have been a minor when his father Robert Tate signed his will on July 29, 1796 (executed February 3, 1807), Russell County, VA. He married Delilah Henderson, a Canadian girl. Alexander remained in Virginia until the settlement of his father's estate in 1816. He purchased 100 acres on August 5, 1817, in Warren County, TN. This was witnessed by John and Robert Tate. He and his brother John settled on Dry Creek on the line of Warren and what became Van Buren County, TN out of McMinnville, TN. He died there intestate in 1847. His administrator was Douglas Tate*. ) (Inv. date torn out.)

In 1820 they were living in Warren County, TN with three sons under 10, a daughter, under 10. In 1830 two boys, one 15-20, the other 10-15, the daughter 15-20. Apparently one son died before 1830.
