United States of America / Re: william alexander gatewood
« on: Thursday 29 April 10 15:49 BST (UK)  »
Hi all, can I say thank you to all who have replied to my request. I have the marriage certificate of William Alexander Gatewood and his father is down as William Gatewood, deceased and Cotton manufacturer. So I find it really interesting to see that Ohio Susan as found a reference in a paper about a W. C. Gatewood in the Daily True Delta newspaper as it claims he was instrumental in the establishment of the first cotton press built in that city. The 1860 census does not give an occupation for W. C. Gatewood and the 1850 one sais he was a marchant?

US Lookup Requests / William Gatewood

I am looking for any American records for a William Alexander Gatewood born in Charleston, South Carolina about 1853. I have found a family in the 1860 census with a son W. Gatewood who is 8 years old which could be him, (his father is also called William Gatewood).  By the 1870 census the family have disappeared and William later turns up in England in the 1881 census where he spent the rest of his life. I am hoping there is someone in America who can help me confirm I have the right American family. Can anyone help me please? ???
