He was on the Company Muster Roll, November and December 1862. He was last paid on October 30, 1862 and for each two months until it shows him killed.

    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.]
