Notater:
Son of Amos Sr. & Hannah (Oldham) Gates of Cambridge and Framingham Massachusetts, death date from probate, death place from last known contemporary family residence, Spa Springs or Victoria Vale, attempting to approximate it's then contemporary name usage.
Marriage #1. 5 May 1745 in Leicester, Massachusetts to Mehitable Trowbridge (1726-?), d/o John & Mehitable Elizabeth (Eaton) Trowbridge, also of Cambridge and Framingham. His brother, Amos Jr., married their daughter Mary, six months earlier.
Marriage #2. 20 Nov 1754 in the Spencer District of Leicester, Massachusetts to Patience Frances Bartlett (1734-1759), d/o Nathaniel & Sarah (Thompson) Bartlett, of Newton and Brookfield.
Marriage #3. 5 Sep 1759 in Brookfield Massachusetts to Thankful Adams (1734-?), d/o Jonathan Jr. & Mary (Mitchell) Adams, of Grafton, from Chelmsford and Deerfield.
The "Dana Family in America" reports he married next to a Jane Drew. Others have misread, misrecorded, or misreported the name of his widow, Jemime, as Jennie, as it appears in his will from May of 1797, repeating the name as Jennie Drew, but it appears that Oldham and Jemima were certainly married before that late date. He ultimately married Jemima (Burtis) (Mrs. John Potts) Gates, from Elmhurst-Queens and Bedford-Kings, New York, their precise marriage date and place unknown. She died about 1816, at the home of one of his sons, that possibly also their old homestead.
The "History of Framingham, Massachusetts" reports he was wounded at Bunker Hill, side not recorded. After serving at Crown Point with the Massachusetts militia, he moved to Nova Scotia. His brother Amos is recorded as applying for land there, but does not seem to have actually moved. Oldham was soon appointed one of a handful of militia captains for Annapolis County. There is no record of Nova Scotia militia, going to, returning from, or being in or around Charlestown, Massachusetts fighting for either side. His brother Amos had a son, Oldham, who served during the war, along with four other sons, one of whom died in the war. That specific Oldham Gates may rightly deserve this distinction of service. One source, long misplaced, had him wounded in the arm, I believe from this engagement. I have not been able to locate that information. Again, I believe this applies entirely to his nephew.
