Frederick Styles and Alfred Thomas Agate tree
Hello, I am looking for information on the ancestors of two prominent American artists who were brothers, Frederick Styles Agate and Alfred Thomas Agate.
Biographical information indicates that their parents were Thomas and Hannah Agate of Shipley, Sussex.
I am looking for confirmation that Hannah Agate's maiden name was Stiles or Styles.I believe her to be my 4xgreat aunt, and with her sister Mary, who married William Agate (Thomas' brother), the first of my family to emigrate.
The Agates and Stileses in my tree will be from the Horsham-Shipley-Billingshurst-Steyning area of West Sussex, emigrating to the Sparta-Ossining-Westchester and Northfield-Pittsford-Monroe County areas of New York State, respectively.
Any help greatly appreciated!
