Pate was. Ray Tackel is my husband's uncle, and Chris is the son of another uncle, Roy Tackel. > I had forgotten, but my husband said that L.M. Pate ran the "Angus" Bar-B-Q restaurant here in Bridgeport for many years. His sister, Mildred Jenkins, was married to a good friend of my cousin's. My husband didn't remember a sister, Juanita Pate Payne. Did you see on one of those records that it said that her husband's name was Howard Payne? Maybe that will help you find them in Houston. > Sometimes those funeral records are a great source of information. I hope these help you. > Sue > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Gordon E.
