Facts and Events
"My grandfather, Jason Bateman, was a freight hauler. He hauled cotton to Covington and freight back for Babington Bros. Store. He used oxen." [...] The grandparents on the Bateman side were good people. Earlier I told about his hauling freight. He was the type who helped outhers. I have been told he was a leader and when the wagons were bogged down, he would stop other wagons and have them lend their teams." [From the 1970 autobiography of Price Magee, grandson of Jason Bateman, copy in possession of Bevin Creel] References
