I am seeking information on the Bates line that owned Bates Island in Casco Bay at one time. I believe Edsel Bates owned the island. I am especially interested in him and a Jane Bates who lived there in 1850 and died in 1890. I also would like to know the parentage of Jane . Any information about Casco Bay Bates will be greatly appreciated. Margaret Dyer [email protected]
