This work has been in preparation for several years. It is not complete, but it is g"iven out now toarouse interest in the subject. We trust that where the record is incom- plete the proper data will be sent us. There are some families which we have not been able to connect with this history at any point, but which no doubt can be traced to some connection. Mr. Sanborn contemplates a larg-er work and we ask all to send him as complete a record of their family as possible. Whatever mistakes there are — and there are mistakes — we hope that all will help us by calling- our attention to the same so that they may be corrected in the larg-er work. Our thanks are due to all who have so kindly furnished us information for this work. Relationship is traced by numbers. For example, the last name, Roland Heath Gate, is 659 and after his father's name, Frederick Symon Gate, stand the numbers 624, 475, 200, 156, 84, 34, 11, 2, 1. These numbers g-ive the names of Roland Heath Gate's fathers g-randfather, g-reat-grand- father, etc. There are three indexes: the Gate family, the Gates family, and families marrying into the Gate and Gates families; this last includes the maiden name of the mother. Dates in parentheses belong- to the wife or husband only. E. E. GATES, Frkdkrick, Md. M. RAY SANBORN, E. TiLTON, N. H. Feb. igo^.

[Tombstone in Windham, Conn., churchyard.] "Lieutenant John Gates, a pious Puritan who served in the wars of Kng-land, holdintr his commission under Cromwell. When Charles II came to the throne, he fled to this country for safety. He landed first in \''irginia, where he procured a negro servant to attend him. But when advertisements and pursuers were spread through this country to apprehend the adherents to the Protector, he left Virginia, came to New York, and thence to Norwick. .Still feeling that he would be securer in a more retired THE GATE— GATES FAMILY. 3 place, he came to this plantation, dug- the first cellar, and with his servant raised in Windham the first English habitation in the springy of 1689. After leaving legacies to church, town and school of Windham he willed the rest of his property to Mary Howard, 'unless m}' child or any of my children now in Eng-land should come toNewEng-land. '" [Historical address delivered at Windham, Conn.] It is probable that a son of Lieutenant Gates came to Connecticut as there was a Cates family in Windham, Co., in 1780. SOUTHERN FAMILIES. Some records of southern families have been found but nothing complete. Benjamin B. Cates (M. D., University of Pennsylvania, 1888,) is a physician in Knoxville, Tenn., and Professor of Surgery in the Tennessee Medical Col- leg-e, (Knoxville, Tenn.) His brother, Reuben L. Cates, a g-raduate of the Yale Law School, is District Attorney- General for Knox County, Tenn., and his cousin, Charles Theodore Cates, Jr., is Attorney-General for the State of Tennessee and Supreme Court Reporter. The southern family starts with Joseph Cates and John Kates, who immig^rated to Virginia in 1635. Some of their descendants emigrated thence to Orang-e Co., N. C, and thence spread throug-h Kentucky and Tennessee. We find both spellings of the name — Cate and Cates. Some families have been found both here and in New Eng- land with spelling- Kates.

He was esteemed as a man of ability and one of the strong" pillars of the Cong-reffational Church; he was one of the selectmen in 17b8, and on various important committees during- the War of Independence. Mr. Cates was a Deacon and Ruling- Elder of the church for many years." [ Judg-e Pierce's History of Gorham, Me.] "Joseph Cates was a resident of Falmouth (Cape Eliza- beth) as early as 1745. April 8, 1745, he was published to Deborah, the young-est daughter of Joshua, Jr. and P^liza- beth (Vaug-hn) Cobb. (I maintain that this is an error and that this Deborah was the daughter of Jonathan Cobb, as is proved by papers in the office of the Cumberland Co. Commissioners at Portland, Me. — M. R. S.) In 1748 Joseph Cates purchased a lot of land in Cape Elizabeth, on the road leading- from the ferry to the meeting- house, where he THE GATE— GATES FAMILY. 7 probably lived. May 11, 1772 he sold this land, as he was then living- in Gorham to which he probably moved in 1756. A man of good abilities, he held many important offices in the town and was much beloved and respected by his fellow- citizens. His farm in the "Quaker neig-hborhood" was oc- cupied after his death by his sons Benjamin and Ebenezer and lately by Richard Willis a (lineal) descendant."
