Joseph “Joe” and Margaret Alice “Mary Alice” “Babe” (Vanover) Bates

Joe’s store.  He started storekeeping on land he inherited from Bill D. Hall.  (Looking at old notes, that was a few generations back: William D. “Bill Dee/D” Hall married Louanza “Ansy” Isaacs, had daughter Luanna “Pink” Hall, Pink had a relationship with Washington Uriah Bates (no indication they were married; he was married to a Mary Higgins and she was married/relationship to a Rhodes W. Meade). Pink and Uriah had child Joseph “Joe” Bates (his son is Andrew J. “Andy” Bates, my maternal grandfather).

Mary Alice was 21 years old when her son Andy was born. (Looking at old notes, Andrew J. “Andy” Bates, my maternal grandfather, has noted birthday 18 Jun 1899 in Knott Co KY.)

Mary Alice’s father Andrew William Vanover is buried at: Furl Strange Graveyard. (Didn’t have note of county.)

Joe & Mary Alice’s children: Uriah, Andrew, Clarence, Earnest, Flora, Mary Anna, Landis, Tilden, Columbus “Dib”, Rosie, Lily Fair, Nebraska. All of the children except Nebraska were delivered by Sal Perry.  Nebraska was delivered by Mandy Cole. Nebraska died of the flu.

Joe & Mary Alice’s wedding: 4 Sep 1895, Democrat Letcher Co KY.
