James McAtee and his wife, whose maiden name was Ellen Montgomery,
were natives of Montgomery County, Maryland; their parents came from

Elias, James and Ignatius.  Elias married Henrietta Magruder, who was
of Scotch descent, and settled in Union County, KY.  The names of 
their children were: John R., Stephen T., Mary, Elizabeth, Rose,
Teresa and Maria.  John R. became blind, and died in Kentucky, un-

Brown, who settled in Madison County, MO., in 1823.  Elizabeth married

married Leo Bowlees, and Maria died in childhood.  Stephen T. McAtee
removed from Kentucky to Missouri and settled in St. Charles County
in 1834.  Mr. McAtee was prompt and reliable in all the transactions
of life, and was universally respected by all who knew him.  He held

1863, at the age of sixty four years.  His widow is still living at 
the old homestead, in her 78th year.  Their children were: Walter P.,
