John in TX Hi John, Thank you for your reply and your help! I am trying to help a friend locate his PATE relatives. His mother was born in Georgia, we believe Columbus, ca. 1948-50. Her maiden name is Eula "Jeanette" PATE. When she was 15, she lived at 1101B Riverview Apts. in Phenix City, AL and gave birth to a son on 9/24/64 at Cobb Memorial Hospital. The father of her baby was in the military in Phenix City, AL at that time. Jeanette knew a family named THOMPSON that lived in Phenix City, and they adopted her son. The THOMPSONS gave him this information on Jeanette, and they have since passed on. He was told that his mom and dad later married and had more children. He would like to get a message to his mom, dad and siblings to ask if they would like contact with him. The THOMPSONS moved from that area right after the adoption was final and before his mom and dad married. They had a picture of Jeanette's mother (his grandmother) in their photo album so we feel they were at least all friends or possibly related to each other in some way (?). I believe the name Eula was probably passed on to his mom, and that's the only way I know to trace them. Is there any way you can help me with the information I have here? Do you have relatives named PATE in Columbus? Maybe any that lived in Phenix City/Russell County, AL at some point? Are you related to Eula H Pate that you gave me the information on? If you have any Pate relatives in GA or AL, could you contact them and ask if any of them know of any adoptions in the family or if there is a Eula "Jeanette" Pate related to you? I have a copy of his original birth certificate if that would help. I appreciate any help you can give me! Kaye <GaSearcher@aol.com>
