Dan, I sent you two e-mails today in response to your post. I can't thank you enough for answering. I called my sister to tell her at midnight that we had finally heard from a family descendant of our gr gr grandfather Robert D. Gates. My wife and I were just to Yates City. There isn't a library and cemetery in that county that we haven't been in. I went to Russell Cemetery from the time I was a kid with my Grandmother Mable V. (Gates) Spencer, Oliver P. Gates daughter. Unfortunately she passed away before I got interested in genealogy so the only stories that stuck in my mind were the Horatio Gates and the drowning. When I started I did not even know Oliver's parents names.
