I am re-posting my interests - BATE - Sutton, Prescot, Rainhill MERCER - Sutton, Prescot, Rainhill John Mowatt Bate USA

Hi John, hope you don't mind me corresponding with you but I have a Bate in my tree but I don't know anything about him other than he married Ellen Hughes in Liverpool. Ellen would have been the granddaughter of Elizabeth Thompson and William Hughes both from Liverpool. If you think you have a connection, I would love to hear from you. Syl - UK
