I have an Anna Yates b. abt 1808 in NC, married Elijah wilcoxen :(Wilcox) who was born in Ashe Co. NC in 1806. They appear in the Wilkes Co. Census 1840 through 1860. Could :not find them in 1870. I believe Anna died between 1860-1862. Would she fit in with your Yate's? :Wendy : :Ellen Byrne wrote: : :> Have tried for years to find the marriage record of William and Celia YATES.
