Biography

Cross of St George
Elizabeth (Unknown) Bates was born in England.
Elizabeth was named in John Bate's will.[1]
Some have said that Elizabeth was a Winston, however, there is no documentary evidence that supports that claim. The only documentation which suggests his wife MAY have been Elizabeth Winston is that William Winston witnessed John's will, therefore UNKNOWN is the correct LNAB

Reviving the "Elizabeth was a Winston" debate: Elizabeth Unknown has been found - please see also some comments on her sister, Sarah Winston's, profile.

It looks like a merge was also pending from the below notes?

Katharine you may find this documentation Which appears on John Bates-40's helpful:

Disputed Parents

It has been claimed that John Bates of Virginia was the son of James Bate(s) and Mary Martine. However, it appears that this couple's son John was buried 6 Mar. 1606, which would mean that James and Mary couldn't have been the parents of John, whose known children don't include a James or a Mary.[1]

Winston-4 and Unknown-194084 appear to represent the same person because: These two are the same women. I posted a question on G2G a year ago, and no one had any evidence that John's wife was a Winston. I have protected Unknown as her LNAB. Please merge. After the merge, I will disconnect her from her Winston parents. Thanks.
