Unknown Bates, Habersham GA, 1830

Jeanne I too am researching the Bates line that appears in Habersham County Georgia.My line descends from Charlton Bates who married Nancy O'Kelley.I have recently found Charlton had a brother William and the two of them were arrested for horse steeling.There was no further information so I don't know if they were convicted or not.
The information I have states Charlton was born in SC in 1813.I am wondering if perhaps there may be a connection with John Shockley Bates who was in and around the same area and same time as were my two Bates brothers.
Charlton had a son, Thomas F. Bates who married Malinda Elizabeth Ward in Cherokee County.Thomas F. and Malina Elizabeth's daughter Indy Anna Bates married my grandfather in Alpharetta, Georgia in December 1904.
Any information you could share would be appreciated.
Thanks,Harold [email protected]
