Wexford / Re: Re: Any tips for researching in Gorey
« on: Monday 21 June 10 04:20 BST (UK)  »
Thanks all for the info.  Another piece of information that I have on William Bates is that in the US he was a farmer per the 1850 census.  Not sure if his family was in the Carriage business in 1820, if he would revert to farming in 1850. 

Would anyone have a family history on the Bates family going back to before 1820?  That might help identify some possibilities.

Thanks much for all your help.

Kind Regards,

Derek
