I have made some contacts with people who are researching the same family as me in Jackson Co (the Batemans), but am not sure if it was thru' this list or by checking out the county home page--I'd advise you try the site and the archives from this list to see if anyone is looking for the same names as you. However, to add another query to the list, I am searching for the family of Charles Bateman, born Ireland, family emigrated to New Brunswick when Charles was very small, his younger sister Mary (my grt grt grandmother) was born there in 1820. Charles, his wife Sarah Bateman and several children were in Ontario for the 1851 census and sometime between then and the next census (1871) moved to Holton, Kansas. I have been able to get copies of cemetery records for several of these. Other members of the Bateman family also settled there. I would be interested in contacting any other descendants of the Bateman families. In addition to NB and Ontario, there were related Batemans in Coshocton Co. Ohio, California and Oregon.
