Deborah: I do not have a copy of the marriage license/certificate for the 12 May 1804 marriage of Rebecca Pate and John Pate.I picked up the Kinchen Felts-Surety/Bondsman note from some printed index (book or on-line). Helen Pate Ross, in her second book on PATE, page 493, notes that subject license is in Sussex Co VA Marriage Book ?, Page 115. I am deeply interested in the FELTS surname as it is connected in many ways to the PATE surname in Sussex/Southampton Co VA and Warren/Wilkes/Columbia/Taliaferro Co GA. My g/f was Boyce FELTS Pate of Taliaferro Co GA. I believe that he was named , in part, for his gg g/m Mary Felts my line: Jordan Pate md Elizabeth Adams Jesse Pate md Nancy Bayes Jackson John Jackson Pate md Sarah Jane Reese John Thomas Pate md Sarah Jane Flynt Boyce Felts Pate md Rubye Alethia Scott Floyd Edgar Pate md Agatha E Yates Joel M Pate
Nathaniel Felts daughter Elizabeth also married a Pate. Unfortuneately he didn't mention the names of their husbands. I think she married Thomas's brother John.
