One possible concern with this file is Find A Grave lists Isaac as b. 1728 and DEATH 24 Nov 1786 https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/6202992/isaac-bates Isaac's wife is listed as Jemima Carter Bates b. May 1742 Killingworth, Middlesex County, Connecticut, and d.8 Mar 1813 Are we talking about two different Isaac Bates?

Researcher's Notes

Isaac is the Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution Ancestor #A007444. There is some lack of documentation with the applications filed by the descendants of his son, Isaac Bates, who married Mehitable Pratt, however Isaac does appear on the roster of soldiers. [1]

DAR records indicate that Isaac's wife was Temperance Kirkland. Isaac Bates and Temperance Kirkland were married July 8, 1762, in Saybrook, Connecticut. [2] Their son, Isaac, was born July 30, 1765, in Old Saybrook. [3]

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Isaac by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA. However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line. It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Isaac:

It looks like there are at least 2 different Isaac Bates. The will of the Isaac Bates of Cornwall, Litchfield, Connecticut mentions eldest son Isaac (not yet 21), 2nd son John, 3rd son Nathaniel, 4th son Heman, 2 oldest daughters Mary & Desire who already have their portions, 3rd daughter Jemima, 4th daughter Abigail, 5th daughter Sarah, 6th daughter Elizabeth, 7th daughter Ruth, wife Jemima. This will dated 9 Nov 1786 and presented for probate 16 Jan 1787 in Litchfield. Ancestry Sharing Link - Ancestry Record 9049 #304842.

His widow's probate packet: Ancestry Sharing Link - Ancestry Record 9049 #1127338

I believe the Isaac Bates who married Temperance Kirtland 8 Jul 1762 in Saybrook is the Isaac, age 73, who died 27 Aug 1807 in Saybrook "sudden by falling from load of hay." Temperance Bates died in Saybrook 25 Jan 1790, age 47, of consumption. The Saybrook land records only list 2 children for them: Temperance b. 14 May 1763 and Isaac b. 30 Jul 1765.

I do not see an Isaac Bates with a death date of 4 Jan 1804 in the published Saybrook vital records.
