Note: It should be mentioned that in the source, Roger Donald Riddle's, "Yates Family History (cir 1996)." John Yates,III was listed as John Yates, Jr. The source did not go back any farther than two John Yates, therefore I assumed that Roger Riddle did not know that there was a "John Yates Sr.", a "John Yates Jr.", and a "John Yates, III." John Yates Jr. (actually John Yates, III) bought 804 acres of the Robert Cleveland farm. {Roger Donald Riddle, "Yates Family History (cir 1996)."} John and Elizabeth are buried in unmarked graves in the Cleveland Cemetery. {Roger Donald Riddle, "Yates Family History (cir 1996)."} Listed in my source, {Roger Donald Riddle, "Yates Family History (cir 1996)."}, there is some question about the following. I assume the question is about Elizabeth's age, her age should have been approx. 67. Listed in the 1850 Wilkes County, North Carolina census records is the following: Page 702 (Written) Visitation # 1496 1496 PROPERTY AGE SEX OCCP VALUE BORN ------ ------- --------- ------------------- ---------- John Yates 71 M Farmer 600 Wilkes Elizabeth Yates 61 F Wilkes {Roger Donald Riddle, "Yates Family History (cir 1996)."}
