He enlisted in the Confederacy on August 7, 1863, in Jackson County, AL in Company "K", 3rd Confederate Regiment. He was released May 5, 1865. He stated he had a wife and one daughter, aged 28, but did not give her name. He stated later that he had eight children, six girls and two sons, but none of their names were recited. He married in Warren County, TN on July 5, 1866 by the Reverand Lyon Brown at St. Mary's Church, Adelaide Deering, born March 10, 1843 of McMinnville, Warren County, TN. Witnesses at their wedding Thomas Brown and Annie Rogers. She stated she was born in TN, her father born in VA and her mother in TN. She died on June 2, 1932 after having received his pension for some time.

Reference: Pension files #7999 and 10345; Federal Census 1880 Jackson County, AL, 1880 Sequatchie County, TN.

In a letter from James Striegel Tate to Ethel Updike on June 9, 1978, he wrote:

"Dock Mayburn Tate was born in DeKalb County, AL on October 8, 1846. He was the son of Aaron Tate, Jr.) On August 7, 1863 he enlisted in Co. "K" of the 3rd (also 11th) Confederate Cavalry Regiment in Jackson County, AL. He was paroled on May 5, 1854 at Guntersville, AL. On July 22, 1908 he filed for a pension which was granted under number 10,345. He died at Cagle, Sequatchie County, TN on August 5, 1923. On July 5, 1866 in Warren County, TN he married Adelaide Deering, born in McMinnville TN. On December 20, 1923 she filed for a widow's pension which was granted under No. 7999. Her application stated there were two sons (aged 41 and 46) and six daughters (aged 38, 44, 49, 51, 53, 54). They are not on the Sequatchie Census for 1870 and 1880 is too dim to read."
