PIONEER BATES FAMILY


 
1.  SAMUEL BATES was born in England 24 Jan 1796.   They immigrated to
this country in 1831 with their three young sons William Fairhall, Charles 
Henry, and Samuel Isaac aged nine, six and two respectively.  They originally 
settled in Montgomery County, possibly near St. Johnsville where the remainder 
of their children were born.  According to Child's Gazetteer of Jefferson 
County, in 1841, the family settled Jefferson County in Lyme, soon to become 
Cape Vincent.  Also according to the same document, their son James J was born 
in Cape Vincent in 1839.  The federal census of 1840 places them in Jefferson 
County.  At one time Samuel and family owned and farmed 500 acres on the main 
shore and Fox Creek and 300 acres on Fox Island.   He died in 1874 and is 
believed to be buried in Bates Cemetery in Cape Vincent, Jefferson County.

He married in England 

SARAH MARIA CAMPBELL,  the daughter of WILLIAM CAMPBELL of
Kent, England.  Maria was born in 1800 and died in 1867 and is believed to be
buried in Bates Cemetery.  Four of their children were born in England, one of
which died at approximately 21 days old and was buried in Peasmarsh, E. Sussex
England.  We are including the Bible record of the births of the children,
