- Was presumably born at his parents' plantation home about 1674. His share of his father's estate, according to the will of 1691 consisted of half of the 700 acres of the tract, "Yates His Forbearance," on the north shore of the Patapsco River in Baltimore Co. along with the entire tract of "Forbearance," 140 acres lying in the falls of the Patapsco on the south bank which was then in Baltimore Co.
George Yate, II lived on "Yates his Forbearance" before he patented "Contrivance" in 1706. This latter plantation was his dwelling plantation and his residence at the time of his death.
Besides being a planter in the productive and affluent section of Elk Ridge, George Yate II also operated a brick yard with his friend Edward Teall.
On July 5, 1712, George conveyed to John Israel, of Baltimore Co. his portion of "Yeates His Forbearance," that is 382 acres which he had inherited by the will of his parent. No wife waived dower.
It was stated without documentary evidence that his wife Rachel died during the year 1709. From the above conveyance, it is evident that she had died by 1712.
He married, secondly, Ruth _____ who survived him. This second wife, shortly after George Yate II's death, married again to Joseph Ary, who became co-executor with her of her first husband's estate. From the records, it would appear that they were not good administrators. -- Paraphrased from Newmann's Yates Family Data, p. 9
