JOHN TATE:

On May 06, 1863, Elizabeth (Weaver) Tate, Samuel Weaver, A. Frazier, and G. W. Malone signed a bond, and application for the appointment of Elizabeth Tate and John B. Frazier as Administrators of the Estate of John Tate was made.  They qualified as Administrators on February 18, 1867.

July 10, 1867, a petition was made for a distribution to be made to the John Tate Estate from the Aaron Tate Estate. Apparently, a distribution was made.  Elizabeth Tate promptly made application for the sale of the John Tate lands to pay John's debts. A petition for a guardian's fair share of the Estate was denied and was set at a 1/30th. Part.

September 11, 1867, a John Tate Estate accounting was made, and the expenses for the children were obviously inflated. Then another accounting was made on February 26, 1869.  Elizabeth listed well in excess of $6,000 in tuition, board, and clothing for her minor children, Mary "Polly" Ann Tate, Aaron Tate, and Hannah Elizabeth Tate. A distribution was made which included the widow, the children, and interest on the admin. expenses for the estate for 5 years.  Elizabeth resigned as Administrator of the Estate. The Judge asked for Two men who knew the land and the heirs of John Tate to give him an evaluation and description of the land. A voucher for legal services was submitted on March 16, 1869.

July 22, 1869, the Two men requested on February 26th gave testimony in verification of the lands described as the SE � of the Se � of Section 14 and the SW �  of the SW �  of Section 13, both in Township 7S, Range 8E of the Huntsville Meridian. They further stated that they knew the heirs, Elizabeth Tate the widow about 36, Polly Tate about 12 or 14, Aaron Tate about 10, and Elizabeth Tate about 8.

Notes for IRVIN GEORGE DUNNEGAN:
Notes from Carol E. Vaughan, great granddaughter, Lexington, KY

Irwin George, the sixth child of Thompson Dunnegan and Sophronia Tate, was born in Warren County, TN in 1849.  Thompson's family had moved from VA to middle TN sometime between 1810 and 1817.  After Irvin's grandfather, Absalom Dunnegan, died in White County, TN, his uncles, John and Samuel Dunnegan left that area and moved to southeast MO around 1843.  After about ten years Irvin's father Thompson followed them to Iron County, MO and later to Wayne County, MO.

Irwin was a farmer and owned a sawmill in Des Arc which he sold to G. W. Graves in 1890 for one thousand dollars.  He was involved in a number of land transfers in Wayne County.  One of the deeds reflected an understanding between Irvin George and his father, Thompson, in which Irvin would have a parcel of land for a nominal cost and would provide elder care for Thompson.  It was signed in 1880 by Thompson and his second wife, Sallie E. Foquaide.

Irvin died in 1895 of injuries resulting from a very serious accident in 1894 at a saw mill in Wayne County.  Carol Vaughan remembers this version as told by her grandfather, Walter C. Dunnegan.  "Granddaddy said that people would come to their house and cut off patches of their own skin to graft onto his father's are flesh in hopes that his wounds would heal.  He was at home in bed a long time before he died."  The following death notice in the Iron County Register paints an even more agonizing and painful death.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Iron County Register, June 20, 1895

From Des Arc

I. G. Dunnegan, who was scalded in a wreck on a log boom below Poplar Bluff last summer, was brought home last winter.  All the flesh was burned off his legs from his hip down.  He has suffered death a thousand times, and of late he suffered so much you could hear him hollow and take on for some distance.  So the Doctors concluded to cut off one of his lets, and Sunday, Drs. Petit, Gay, Tates and Sebastian amputated his leg, but he only lived until night.  Poor man! He is better off.  May God help his bereaved widow and children!  He will be buried at Des Arc Tuesday.  June 17, 1895
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

On his grave in Mt. View Cemetery in Des Arc his epitaph reads:

"Farewell my wife and children all,  From you a father Christ
doth call.  Mourn not for me, it is vain to call me to your sight again."



Notes for SARAH ANNA (ANNIE) KIMMEL:
Notes from Carol E. Vaughan, great granddaughter, Lexington, KY.

In the 1900 Wayne County, MO Census, Anna was a widow with 6 children.  She managed a boarding house and had 14 boarders at that time.  Some of their property was sold for taxes in 1910 and it was around that time when Anna married M. A. Thompson and moved to Arkansas.  Other members of her family (Kimmel) had already moved to the area around Pine Bluff.

Before 1910, Annie married M. A. Thompson and moved to Pine Bluff, AR where he owned a grocery store on Cherry Street.  Walter lived with them for a while and Eddie lived most of his adult life with them.  Genevieve Dunnegan Wilkes said that Eddie had a place behind his mother's house in Pine Bluff where he lived and worked as a painter.  He is buried in Pine Bluff at Graceland Cemetery.  Ted, struck out on his own at a young age and spent most of his life in Texas.  Ida married Frank L. Baird in 1901.  They lived for a while in Izard County, AR.  Etta was still single in 1904 and living in/near Piedmont, MO (she did some traveling with her grandmother, Caroline Dunnegan Kimmel.)  She later married Guy Hauser who worked for the railroad.  After her death, Guy married his sister-in-law, Ida Dunnegan Baird, who was a widow by that time.  They lived in Newport, AR, at least until the mid 1940's.  Nothing is known about Charley.  Annie Kimmel Dunnegan Thompson died in Newport, AR on December 3, 1944, at the home of Guy and Ida Houser.  She was 84.  Her death certificate shows that she had broken her hip which contributed to the cause of her death of an embolism.  Since M. A. was 86 at that time, it would have been difficult for him to care for her.  He (Magnus A. Thompson) was 93 when he died.  He is buried in an unmarked grave next to his mother's plot in Graceland Cemetery in Pine Bluff, AR.

James A. Tate was killed at the Battle of Vicksburg, MS on July 3, 1863.  He enlisted at Licking, MO on January 1862, Confederate 1st and 4th Consolidated Regiment.  He was on the Company Muster Roll, November and December 1862.  He was last paid on October 30, 1862 and for each two months until it shows him killed.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Very little is known about James Tate and Sarah A. Flowers Tate----especially James Tate. They were living in (Texas) near Licking, Missouri when the boys were born. According to the son, James C. Tate, his father was serving in the army during the Civil War in the New Orleans, Louisiana area.  His mother received word he was sick.  She took the two small boys and a slave to drive the oxcart; two barrels of salt to use as money and went to Louisiana to see her husband.  When they got there she was told he had died of small pox and already buried.  That was when small pox was raging there.  She came back to Missouri, and later married again.
