    3. Book one, pg 37-38 ref# 117 I'm searching for any additional information on James Tate born 1784. He is the last born child of Zimri Tate from Elbert Co. GA. It states the following information: His will (Zimri Tate) 2. Oct 1792 Elbert Co, GA prob. 27 Nov. 1801 wife Martha, ch: Thomas, Nancy, Virginia currency and to each of my children as they comeof age, ex. w. Martha, son Thomas and bro. James Tate. wit. A Colson, Wm. H. Tate and Richard McGehee. It is obcious he did not name all of his children, his bro. James died 1798 and it is not known why Thomas Tate, his son did not qualify as ex,,. however on 12 May 1800 Issac Morris vs. Zimri Tate son and adm. with will annexed of Zimri Tate dec'd and representaive of said decendent viz. Thomas Tate, Samuel McGee and w. Ann, Eliza, Enos, Martha and James Tate infants of tender years. Commonwealth of VA, 1801 James Banks and David Hudson gentlemen justices of Elbert Co, GA whereas: Martha, Zimri, THomas and Enos Tate, Samuel McGehee, Archibald Ribble and w. Elizabeth, James Hatcher and w. marth, by thier deed to Isaac Morris signed thier right of dower as heris of Zimri Tate dec'd. It is interesting to note that James Tate is not mentioned in the last document and Elizabeth and Martha Tate both married between may 1800 amd 1801. If you know have any idea what became of him, please email me and let me know! Thanks, Dixie
