Yates purchased from Walter R. Staples 230 acres of land in Patrick

had been devised to Staples by his father and in 1861 was valued at
$1,380 for tax purposes. Taxes for 1861 were $5.52 and taxes for the
property were recorded through 1866. In 1860 John Y. Yates was living
in Patrick County and his estate was valued at $5000. On Jan 13,
1868, son George W. Yates buys 94 acres of the property for $280. Apr
