I received information that a Richard Fields, Jr. 1762-1827 was my great-great grandfathers uncle. My great-great grandfather was Drew Pate possible last name was McCain. He was raised by a John Pate & Anna Coward in Wayne County, Ms. DNA proves that my family had a name change before Pate. I have a brick wall that I can’t break. I know that it is a long shot but I ask if you know anything about a connection in my family, please contact me. Virginia Wilson Bailey-(4937 Hwy 371 – Heflin, La. 71039. Thank you!
