    Excerpt from Tate Families of the Southern States, Volume II by Laura W. Mentzel & Ethel S. Updike, 1984

    On August 1844, John Tate and his wife, Jane, with his brothers Robert C. and his wife Nancy; Elish and wife, Eliza; and William Tate met and sold 170 acres of land on which their father, Joseph Tate (deceased) lived. After 1844, John Tate with his family moved from Russell County, VA to Powell's Valley, VA in what was then a part of Lee County, now a part of Wise County, VA where he settled.

    He was pastor of the "Three Forks Baptist Church", which was founded in the year of 1798. He was pastor from February 1853 to January 1855 and from March 1857 to October 1873. He, as an elder of the church, together with Deacons Thomas Wells, Jeremiah Wells and Isaac Willis, at the request of the Toms Creek Baptist Church, was appointed to help organize a church at the Big Glades, now the town of Wise, on the first Monday in May, 1847. He was active in church affairs, and public affairs of the county and was elected and served as constable in the Richmond Township for two terms, from 1860 to 1864.
