Knott County Kentucky Census Record notes: Bates & Hall families
August 1992 search notes per Thursa (Halcomb-Nunley) Short
This ties to my Bates family line as Joseph and Mary A. Bates are parents to Andrew who’s father of Molene –my mother.
This ties to my Hall families as Nellie with husband/relationship with Dick Hall are parents of Sam hall father of Pemmie Hall mother of Zettie Bates mother of Molene –my mother.
For added twist, of course no surprise, Nellie was married to William “Bill” as seen here and had children who are kin via the Bates side of my family; Nellie ties back to the Bates family via Hall ancestors in common.
No matter what tree branch I follow on my maternal side –I’m related to William and Nellie as noted on this census.

Updated note 01 FEB 2014.
This is a picture I took of a picture my (Great) Aunt Rosie had been given of her parents -also the parents of my maternal great-grandparents. I don't recall where she thought the original would have been, but this would have been on a visit to her my mom & Granny Tudy Bates in the late 80s to the mid 90s. Photo of Margaret Alice "Mary Alice" "Babe" (Vanover) and Joseph "Joe" Bates.
In 1910, my maternal grandfather Andy Bates was 10 years old. That's the age one of my sons is turning soon. My, the world is certainly a different place than it was back then. This is a picture of my maternal grandfather -Andrew J. "Andy" Bates on his front porch. Wife of Zettie Walker "Tudy" (Johnson) Bates; son of Joe and Mary Alice (Vanover) Bates; father of Molene (Bates) Halcomb my mother.
In the bottom left corner, I see the old clipboard. This would have been taken before I would have started writing family story notes. I wonder what list was being made on that board. He is dressed in his Sunday clothes, he as a Preacher with the Old Regular Baptist. Or, it could have been a picture taken before or after a funeral.
