Kimberly,
My GGGGrandfather was a brother to Samuel W. Tate that lived in Nacogdoches, Texas for a short time. I will be glad to share any information I have with you. Email me at americafaye@sbcglobal.net. I have several " cousins " that I can put you in touch with and you could also join our TATE family website for this line of TATE's if you like.

Rebecca
