    • BIOGRAPHY

      From Find A Grave:

      Isaac Nesbit Tate was the son of two distinguished educators of the deaf. His paternal grandparents Isaac Tate and Jane Wright Henderson Tate were very early settlers of the northeastern prairies of Callaway county, Missouri. They had been raised within the Boone & Bryan settlement parties and had lived in Kentucky at the time of the indians raids when settlers held up in stations. This tradition is still strong in the Tate family of today.

      Until he was nine, Isaac lived on the campus of the Missouri School for the Deaf in Fulton, Missouri where his father was superintendent and his mother was a pioneer in the teaching of speech and lip reading. When he was 8, a catasptophic fire swept the school one February night, leaving only one major building standing. He was part of a brigade of children that distributed blankets to the pupils who'd been routed from their home. The blankets had been obtained from the Insane Asylum adjacent to the school. This family moved to Faribault in 1896.

      The Missouri School is located in Callaway County. Each year, an event called the Kingdom Supper is held there. An individual who was born and raised in the county and has left it to achieve great success is honored. The person must be one who has made an unusual effort to serve others in meaningful ways. In 1936 this award was given to Isaac Nesbit Tate who was, at that time, an officer of the Weyerhauser Corp. in Minnesota.

      He had one sister, Elizabeth Tate Monroe.
