Alfred Cate
Alfred Madison Cate (December 12, 1822 – September 13, 1871) was an American politician, soldier and farmer who served two terms in the Tennessee Senate from 1865 to 1869. A Radical Republican, he generally supported the policies of Governor William G. Brownlow, including ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. He served as chairman of the Republican State Central Committee in the late 1860s.〔 Cate remained loyal to the Union during the Civil War. He was a delegate to the pro-Union East Tennessee Convention in 1861, and was a key organizer of the East Tennessee bridge burnings later that year. He fought for the Union Army during the war, eventually rising to the rank of captain.〔Oliver Perry Temple, Mary Boyce Temple (ed.), "(Alfred M. Cate )," ''Notable Men of Tennessee'' (Cosmopolitan Press, 1912), pp. 85-88.〕 ==Early life==
Cate was born in Jefferson County, Tennessee, the son of Elijah Cate, a farmer, and Nellie (Davis) Cate. When he was still very young, his parents moved to McMinn County, where they established a large plantation in the Mouse Creek Valley near Niota. By 1850, Alfred had married and moved to Ooltewah, Tennessee, in Hamilton County, where he engaged in farming.〔John Wilson, "(Cates Fought in Civil War: 1 Son Murdered As Sheriff )," Originally published in a Chattanooga-area newspaper, date unknown (after 1982).
