The Tate Family moved to Callaway County, Missouri in 1829. Isaac at that time was 21 years old. He was six feet tall, strongly built and finely proportioned. His weight in mature years was about 210 pounds.
As he was a magnificent man physically, so he had a magnificent mind which he kept in fine working order.
At the age of 25 he married Jane Henderson and settled on the edge of Grand Prairie, on what is known as the Colonel Boyd Farm. In 1847 he moved to Tate's Prairie where he lived until his death. Colonel Tate was an intelligent, enthusiastic and successful farmer. He was not a trader nor a speculator.
He was a great friend of education. For many years and up to the time of his death he was a member of the Board of Trustees of Westminster College and no member was more constant in his attendance or gave wiser counsels as to its management through it's years of struggle for life and success.
Colonel Tate was a man of deep religious principals. These determined his conduct in everything and gave weight to his character. He was, for 54 years, a ruling elder in the Auxvasse Presbyterian Church and never allowed anything but serious sickness to keep him from the public service of God's house. He recognized God in his home and always maintained the duty of family prayer.
