Is this the William Bates Betts of Surry Co., NC and possible brother of George Bates Betts Baites (guess b abt 1860)among others (Jacob, Mathias (guess 1755)?
Probably sons of older Anthony Bates Betts (guess b abt 1725-30) (purchased land in 1778) whose land was next to Jacob Hoot(Hutts)family and on the Harmon Creek. (Then Surry, now Yadkin) George Bates was listed in Will of George Renegar d 1794 (wife was a Barbara). Which means they could speak German from their neighbors.
I am trying to place my Barbara Barbary Bates b1797NC in the correct family.She married Surry Co., NC to William Doss in 1818. She married as Barrey Doss to John Miller in Jan 1822.The moved by 1830 in Warrick Co., Indiana on the Ohio River, close to Evansville, Indiana. (Children: Nancy, William Henry, Frances Jane, Arad, James L, Daniel.
