This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/hBB.2ACE/777.3 Message Board Post: I believe both my paternal grandmother (Bertie Ray Cunningham Choate) and grandfather (Julian Choate) are related to your Delia Cunningham Choate and Byron Choate. Julian and Byron's parents were Charles Andrew Choate and Mary Ella Francis Choate. I believe Gideon Choate was Charles Andrew Choate's father. I have not been able to verify that last fact other than through the 1880 Trigg County census. Delia Cunningham Choate and Bertie Ray Cunningham Choate were sisters and the daughters of George Harvey Cunningham and Susan Virginia Noel. I have six children total for them: James Thomas, James Alexander, Nannie Lee, Ora Ambie, Delia May, and Bertie Ray. There may be others. Cannot verify other than those I have listed. I would be interested in any information you have on either Delia Cunningham Choate or Byron Choate as I have common interests on both sides. I will be happy to share what I know.
