  1. 11.  John Henry GatesJohn Henry Gates Descendancy chart to this point (2.Elizabeth2, 1.Annetje1) was born on 22 Mar 1802 in Kingston, Ontario, Canada; died on 15 May 1876 in Westbrook, Ontario, Canada; was buried in Cataraqui Cemetery, Kingston, Frontenac County, Ontario, Canada.

    Notes:

    John Gates , Yeoman, was born in Canada West 1804. West included the area around Kingston,Canada. The City of Kingston, Canada surrounds the old Fort Frontenac which was originally built by the French in 1673. The British captured Fort Frontenac in 1758 and formally took possession of the area in 1760. The area immediately surrounding Kingston was included in the County of Frontenac.
    About 12 miles from the Fort a small settlement known as Westbrook was formed. Approximately 1 mile from the settlement was the homestead of John Gate and Caroline Eliza Bryan. This homestead is shown on a map of the area which reflects the ownership of the land in 1878. In addition, the census of Westbrook, Ontario Canada for 1851 states as Follows : John Gates, yeoman , born Canada West, age 48, living in a one story log house. His wife Caroline Elizaa Bryan age 40, the children were : William age 20 , John Henery age 18, Eliza J. age 16, Lydiiaa A. age 14, James age 12, Ellen age 10, Ann Maria age 8 ,and George age 8.
    Although little is known about John Gates, other then he was a farmer , the Directory of Ontario for 1871 states that John Gates of Westbrook was the Justice of the Peace. Some members of the Gates family { Family of John Gates } are buried in the Methodist Church yard in the village of Catarqui, which is about one mile from the village of Westbrook Ontario Canada.
    John Gates homestead originally consisted of 100 acres. He added to this by purchasing 50 acres across the road, and 75 acres down the road { which he purchased in George Okill Stuart Gates name his youngest son } and 150 acres in the vicinity which he gave William Finley Gates his eldest son.
    At this point of time little is known about the background of John Gates andd Caroline Eliza Bryan . However , some interesting assumptions and information has been gathered concerning the period when their parents lived in Canada. As previously stated , the British took over the area around Kingston in 1760. In 1784 the first group of Loyalists arrived in the Kingston area from the United States. In 1785 the second group of Loyalists arrived. Included in this group was the first Anglican Minister whose name was John Okill Stuart. Recall that the youngest son of John and Caroline Gates was named George Okill Stuart Gates. If George Okill Stuart Gates wasnt named after the Anglican Minister, it is a strange coincidence. It would appear that the ancestors of John Gates and Caroline Eliza Bryan might have been a part of the Loyalist Group that arrived in Kingston at that time.

    Notes:

    On the 1st of March, 1906, Mr. Bass married Mrs. Anna Butler, a native of Canada and a daughter of John and Caroline Eliza (Bryant) Gates. The father, who was of Dutch extraction, was born in Kingston, Canada, and the mother in Ogdensburg, New York. He was a son of John Gates, who homesteaded one hundred acres of land, where the Kingston Market now stands in Ontario, Canada. When the War of 1812 broke out he went to the front and is supposed to have been killed at the Battle of the Windmill, at Prescott, Ontario, as he was never heard from afterward. His son, John Gates, the father of Anna Bass, was one of the successful agriculturists of Kingston, Ontario, and acquired one thousand acres of valuable land in Frontenac county, upon which the youngest son, George Gates, is now residing. Mrs. Bass inherited two hundred acres of land from her father, which is now rented to her eldest son, George Henry Ayerst. Mr. Gates passed away in Canada in 1889, and the mother, who was of Irish and American descent, came to Iowa and made her home with her son James Gates at Boone, until her death in 1901. Mrs. Bass was first married in 1861 to Francis Ayerst. of England. He died in Canada twenty-five years ago and she later became the wife of Charles Butler, a veteran of the Civil war and a native of the state of New York, where he likewise died. In 1904, she located in Boone, Iowa, and there she was married two years later to Mr. Bass.
    --1901

    May be from Doris Gates Fleming, 1963, speaking of Anna Maria Gates.
    "Grandpa Gates also had a sister Anna, who later came to the States to make her home. We knew her quite well, in her later years as she and her husband lived in Dayton, Iowa. One thing I remember about our Great Aunt Annie was that she never relinquished her loyalty to Canada and England. A large framed picture of Queen Victoria had a prominent place on her living room wall. When Aunt Annie spoke of Boone, she invariably called in Kingston. Great Aunt Annie was a very aristocratic looking little lady. When I was a child she came to visit quite often bustling and rustling in her black taffeta and lace. She also wore diamond earrings, which all of us girls admired."

    Ann married Francis Erskine Perry Ayerst on 25 Nov 1862 in Frontenac County, Ontario, Canada. Francis (son of Ambrose Mercer Ayerst and Charlotte Ross) was born in 1833 in Chatham, Kent, England, United Kingdom; was christened on 5 May 1833 in St Mary's Church, Chatham, Kent County, England, United Kingdom; died on 3 Dec 1876 in Parham, Ontario, Canada; was buried in Parham Village Cemetery, Parham, Frontenac County, Ontario, Canada.
