I would like very much to have more information about my Tate family. Please feel free to contact me at [email protected]

I would also add that my Spencer family left Turkeyfoot Twp., PA which is Somerset, PA about 1804 to claim Govt Lands in Perry County, Ohio. Maybe the Tate Family left with them about the same time period????
