> Hi, I am new to the Bates List and have been lurking around checking messages. > I am looking for info on the parents of Maria Bates Woodard of Romeo, Macomb Co. MI. She was married to Willard Woodard. I believe Maria had a brother, Conley M. Bates, born 1810 NY and died May 1891, Washington, Macomb Co. MI. Wife Irenia Galpin Bates, born 1810 Canada, died 1897, Washington, MI. He owned a Hotel in Macomb Co. in 1850, and his mother was possibly Mary Bates, born VT.1781. She appeared with him on 1850 Census. > I have no proof that Conley and Maria were siblings, info just points in that direction. > Any help appreciated > Nita Pearce > > > ============================== > Search ALL of RootsWeb's mailing lists in real time. > RootsWeb's Personalized Mailing Lists: > http://pml.rootsweb.com/ >
