Dawn, I am sorry I can't help you, but I would really like to know if "your" Ed YATES married Amanda E. "Minnie" MILLER Minnie was my 2nd great Aunt. She was born 6 Mar 1872 in Drew Co, died 13 Mar 1900 and is buried in Andrew Chapel Cemetery in Drew Co. Minnie and Ed YATES married 20 Dec 1888. I have no information of her husband or any children they may have had. If you could help me fill in these missing pieces, I would really appreciate it.
