You have a tough line that isn't easily deciphered.According to marriage records, census, death records, and obits, there are 2 Benjamin Yates, both about the same age.One is Norris and Margaret (McCrary) Yates' son and the other is Benjamin and Ann (Delong) Yates' son.To further complicate matters, both of the young Benjamins' wives were named Elizabeth.Your Elizabeth was a Garrett, probable daughter of Russell Garrett (who lives right beside of Ann (Delong) Yates in the 1840 census), married in 1848, and died in 1907.The other Elizabeth was a Cade, daughter of John Cade and Harriet (Symmes), married in 1854, and died in 1920.
