Ooooo, Mark, you are so quick. This is so very curious. My Amos listed Buchanan, VA as his and his parents' birth place on his marriage license (03-29-1888); however, his name was misspelled as GATES on the license, not Yates and this is now confirmed that GATES is the one but spelled incorrectly. Your Pike County and MY Pike County could be different ones since the OH or KY is not stated there. Thank you so much for helping on this point. I was unaware of the Pike County, OH connection. I've run into, not just a brickwall but NO wall in VA (Buchanan is a county there too not just a city).
Would you be so very kind, on a rainy day or when you have some time, or are emailing to someone else, as to send me any parents' or siblings details to your Amos. I'm absolutely certain this is going to help me. I am sure these two guys are connected.
I've very appreciative and grateful to have had you contact me for you've lead me to a promising direction.
I'm originally from Portsmouth VA (across the James River from Norfolk) and grew up in Virginia Beach. I spent 25 years in Galveston, Texas until January 1999 when I moved to Prescott Arkansas (45 miles from the Texas / Arkansas border city of Texarkana). If I can be of help from here, please let me know though all of my ancestors are from WV , KY , VA , and now probably OH.
Thanks, Mark.
Very Best Regards,
Lonna Marie Yates Taylor
