Ira Yates
I just found this list and i am desperately hoping i might get SOME kind of info...i briefly perused the archives, and thought i would just throw out my info.I am at a dead end here in researching my father's family line.His name is Earl Foster Yates, born May 16, 1921, died December 23, 1977.His father's name was Eben Foster Yates, born 1902 (?) died 1939 (?) married Pearl Elizabeth Fletcher.Eben's father's name was Ira Yates.I don't know anything else except that Ira was from Ireland and his wife from the Netherlands.They supposedly immigrated to the U.S. and eventually ended up in Kentucky.I don't know if there is a variation on the spelling of the name or not. I also know that Eben worked in the railroad industry and died young of Aortic Stenosis, supposedly in Kentucky.BUT...i can find no death info, no birth info, no marriage info...ok, NO INFO!But i know he existed, as i am here!LOL!Eben's wife, (my grandmother), eventually remarried a Bolin and she passed away in February, 1984 in Kentucky.
ANY info, help, leads, crumbs.....will be GREATLY appreciated!
Thank you for this list....it is a ray of hope!
