  1. 10.  Robert TATE was born 08 Mar 1753, Augusta Co. VA (son of John TATE and Mary Mitchell); died 09 Jul 1832, Augusta Co., VA; was buried , Bethel Presbyterian Church Cemetery, Middlebrook, Augusta Co. VA.

    Notes:

    The Tates are a tangle to unravel. Robert's grandparetns are most likely John Tate and Sarah Beaty. His parents, John Tate II or Jr. and Mary Mitchell's descendants tended to stay in Augusta and Rockbridge Counties, VA and marry into other Scot-Irish families of the Shenandoah Valley i.e. the Campbells, McClungs, Stuarts, Finley, and Alexanders.

    Robert, who married Margaret McClung, has been confused by researchers with his uncle, Robert Tate, who settled in Washington Co. VA and had three sons, Col. John Tate, Robert Tate, and William Tate all played prominent roles in the history of Southwestern Virginia. Robert and Margaret McClung had about 11 children who had deep ties to Augusta and Rockbridge Counties, but some researchers have combined the uncle and nephew Robert's families. See what I mean about a tangle of Tates?

    Uncle Robert's descendants were the Traveling Tates. His offspring founded Tatesville in Pulaski Co. KY or settled in Warren and Grundy Co. TN and DeKalb Co. AL. Robert's grandchildren ended up in Missouri, Texas, and Oklahoma.
