    Excerpt from the Tate Families of Southern States, Volume II, Laura Metzel and Ethel Speer Updike, 1984

    Son of Jaziel B. or Jahaziel and Sarah A. Tate. In 1850, the lived in Grundy County with three boys with the Dykes family, Andrew, age 18; John S., age 16; and James, age 13. I am sure they were brothers and probably living with their Dyke grandparents. His father Jahaziel Tate who lost his wife and on October 18, 1839 married a new bride. The family lived in Grundy County, Tn for some time but in 1880, were residents of Kaufman County, TX, living next door to his half brother Martin Van Buren Tate and family. In fact, Martin Van Buren Tate's daughter Elizabeth Ellen married her cousin William (Bill) Martin Tate. His father, Jahaziel Tate mentioned his sons, Jackson Tate, John S. Tate and M. V. B. Tate, dated June 22, 1880, Kaufman County, TX, descendants mentioned that there was first wife and children.

    Notes:

    Excerpts from "Tate Families of Southern States", Metzel and Updike, 1984

    Jahaziel married four times; (1) to a bride of whom we know little, except she died early leaving three sons, Andrew J., John S., and James Tate who were living with the Samuel Dykes' family in the 1850 Census of Grundy County, TN. Possibly the Dykes family were the grandparents of them since rural people always find room for their own kin. He was married to (2) Sarah A. Tate, on October 18, 1839, by Justice of the Peace, W. F. Mooney (M. P. 1836 - 7, 8 and 9.) She was born 1821, age 29 on the 1850 Census of Warren County, TN and died on January 28, 1852, in Pulaski County, AR. Her family was opposed to the marriage. They, however, eloped and settled near Little Rock, Pulaski County, AR. He married (3) Lavinia "Vina" who was born in 1810 in MS. He married (4) Nancy who was born April 5, 1824 in Hinds County, TX; she died on December 7, 1893 in Poetry, TX. Her parents were born in AL and VA respectively.

    It is said that he suffered from epileptic seizures and never traveled alone. He lived to be an elderly man and died on August 4, 1888 testate, buried with wife Nancy, eight miles from Terrill, Poetry, Kaufman, County, TX in the Dry Creek Cemetery. Issue born in Warren County, TN or Little Rock, Pulaski County, AR.
