Bio and Links
Bio Photo I come from a large family, 6 siblings. Five boys and yes 1 girl, ME. As a young girl I have always been interested in my heritage. I started out early tracking ancesters as best I could by asking questions,PC's were not around then!!!! and my family didn't live near us for me to drag out information. Regardless of whos marker I find, I often wonder where their/my people came from, what they were like, what their life was about, what they died from, what their babies died from and how they coped with the death of a child, especially several year after year.

My parents Charles M. Bates and Devera Iona Dowdy Bates have searched for many years to uncover our history and found some truth and not so true to the "it is said". I believe that genology is a journey in life and it is for you or it is not. However,your family heritage being passed from one generation to another, is a honor to give and to receive. It is who you are good or bad!!!!!!
I wish you all the success in your journey and hope that you find as many family members as you can. FAG has been a majjjjjjjjjjjjjjor part of my search and I am grateful to it's members for all that they do. Thank You.
Becky

Re: Free Liberty Cemetery, Rome
I have tried to find this cemetery but I have not had any luck. Since you took the cemetery photo I was hoping that you would be able to tell me how to get to it? Thank you in advance for your help.

RE: Dennis Geary
Becky, just curious but do you live in Missouri? It would be great to get together and compare our information. I live just east of Kansas City but still have family living in Doniphan. Hope to hear from you soon.

RE: Dennis Geary
So nice to hear from you Becky. James Dennis Geary was my Gr. Grandfather, married Sarah J Swann.
Children: Claude; Maude; Pearl; Archie
Claude & Hazel's children: Gerald, Dorothy, Billy
other's I'm not positive about. Faye did live with them for a while and I believe she also lived with my grandparents as I have numerous photos with her in them.
I didn't find out until the past few years that Maude was even married and had children. I always thought that she must have died young as no one ever spoke of her much. She did marry Norvil Madden and had daughters Elzada, and Faye is all I know for sure. They also had a son but can't remember without looking it up what his name is.
All my information is on Ancestry so if you would like I can send you an invite to view my family tree as a guest. There is a lot of valuable information there if you are interested. I would need your email address, so if you would let me know I will send the invite as soon as possible. My email is: cnj8288@yahoo.com and my name is Sharon Begemann. The tree name is: Begemann, Coleman, Simms, Geary, Swann, Knott Tree.
I hope to hear from you soon as I am sure that you have a lot of valuable information that could help greatly. Please let me know if I can help in any other way. Thanks, Sharon

RE: Robert Bates
I'm not clear on who you're talking about. Sorry. Is our connection as family or as my having setup a memorial page for a member of your family OR from my having submitted a photo of a gravesite for a member of your family.
