Sharon Reports finding, among other items- 2) Louisa H. PATE - resided in Nacogdoches County, TX in 1839 (same reference as above). (Ronald Vernon Jackson) I have two marriages records- LOUISA A PATE md HENRY D WOODWORTH in NACOGDOCHES 29 JAN 1839 [SOURCE: INGMIRE][2ND SOURCE: LDS] LOUISA PATE md JAMES MCKNIGHT in NACOGDOCHES 29 JAN 1839 [SOURCE: LDS] I wonder which is correct. I have great confidence in the Ingmire books Next Sharon also reported- 4) Audrey, Birha (?) and Blanch PATE (minors) show up in the "1828 -1940 Probate Cases of San Augustine County TX" (published by the San Augustine Public Library). The date was 14 Nov 1919 and the case was a Guardianship of Person and Property. The guardian was L. B. PATE.
