Susannah Margaret "Anna" Gates1
- Sex: F
- Born: 8 Aug 1833
- Died: 9 Jan 1898 in Orangeburg County, South Carolina
- Buried: Mt. Lebanon Lutheran Church Cemetery in Calhoun County, South Carolina
- Notes:
There is a single gravestone for Henry L. Rickenbaker and Susanna Gates Rickenbaker. I believe the graves were moved to Mt. Lebanon from somewhere on or near the home place in the 1950's. I recall my grandfather, W. J. Stoudenmire talking about moving the graves and that all that was found was some "dark dirt and a few buttons" in his grandmother's grave.
Susanna was given a $200 bequest in the will of her grandfather Christian Gates, 11 Nov 1841. "Sixthly I give grant & bequeath unto my grand Daughter Susannah M. M. Gates, two hundred dollars which shall be her full part of my said estate."
