I am looking for descendants of Elias Bates who was in Jefferson Co. in the early 1800's. I believe he had sons Elias, & James, and daughters, Adelide and Mary Clarissa (Marie Clarice). The latter was my gr. gr. grandmother. On the census of 1830 he has numerous children living with him, possibly some of his grandchildren. Ellen McMullin MacKenzie dandemac@camasnet.com
