Anderson WILSON b 1805 Orange Co, NC, d 1854 MO m. 1829 Orange Co, NC Emelia/Amelia "Millie" FAUCETT b 1804 Person Co, NC, d aft 1845- date?, place? He was son of Thomas WILSON b 1759 NC, d 1829 NC & Jane WOOD b abt 1761 I am curious about "Anderson" as a first name and wonder if it is a surname connected to WILSON or WOOD. Was Thomas WILSON the son of Robert WILSON & Ann LATTA? Who were Jane WOOD'S parents? I have avoided WILSON because I have CLARK, 2 MILLER lines, 2 TAYLOR lines & JENKINS. Patti

My ancestor Elizabeth Brooks (ca 1755- ca 1835) daughter of Thomas Brooks (died Orange 1810) and his wife Elizabeth, stated in a deed that her grandfather was Edward Cato or Calow; the last name is difficult to decipher. I have found many Cate/s in early Orange but no Catos or Calows. I have not found any Edward Cate/s. I have found a single reference to an Edward Cator: 1755 Tax List of Orange Co., NC, Edward Cator 1 white poll. Are there any Cates researchers out there that have knowledge of an Edward? Pamela Brett in Berkeley, California

There are several entries on WorldConnect on Edward Cato who had a daughter Elizabeth who married Thomas Brooks. He was born c. 1707-1710 according to these entries.

Thanks to all those who answered my request regarding Edward Cate/o/or. I looked at the entries on WorldConnect, but unfortunately, there are no sources given for the information. The Thomas Keates Cates b. Aug. 2, 1758 in Maryland is probably not connected since my Edward was in Orange as early as 1755 when he is on the tax list with 1 poll. I am looking for Cate/s/or in Virginia as well. I don't know if my Thomas Brooks is related to the people in the book Brooks and Kindred Family by Ida Kellum. I found his will on microfilm in Salt Lake. It was probated in 1810 and he was mentioned as a resident of Hillsborough. It lists: wife Elizabeth (presumably daughter of Edward CAte/e/or) son Andrew (died 1812) son William, found in the 1810 United States Federal Census > North Carolina > Orange > Hillsborough daughter Hannah Brooks and her son James (I'm not sure if Hannah Brooks was married or perhaps she married a Brooks and kept the same surname.) daughter Susannah Jackson; married Thomas Jackson in Orange 22 Dec 1787 daughter Betsy HOWELL is Elizabeth Howell who married Benjamin Howell and moved to Grainger County Tennessee. daughter Sally Tyrrell married Joseph Terrell 6 May 1789 I know there is another Thomas Brooks about the same age who died in Chatham County in 1812; in Ida Kellum's book, she say this Thomas married Martha Temple. I haven't found any connection, but I plan to study land deeds and see if these Brooks families lived near each other.

daughter Betsy HOWELL is Elizabeth Howell who married Benjamin Howell and moved to Grainger County Tennessee. daughter Sally Tyrrell married Joseph Terrell 6 May 1789 ****** I may have a clue, Pam. My Wm Stroud of Orange there by mid 1750's had a dau. who m. a Howell and removed to TN. Also, am from Brooks of Chatham. and Isaac Brooks of Chatham m. Ruth Terrell (lots of spellings). She was dau. of wealthy and landed Timothy Terrell, from Caroline Co., va, whose land inc. several streams, all called Terrell's Crk., orig. on Orange but now spills over into Chatham out toward Carrboro-White Cross area, I think, and Mary Martin, dau. of Zachariah. Kellam wrote that Tim. was killed in Davidson Co. by Indians...not correct as Orange Tim. d. bef. Rev War, plus there was no Davidson Co., NC, at that time or Indians around the area. There are/were lots of Cates in Orange as maybe even more in Alamance Co., which was once part of Orange.

Is your Brooks related to the people in the book Brooks and Kindred Family by Ida Kellum? I am researching some names in her book, Walkers and Mcleans.
