Kentucky: A History of the State, Battle, Perrin, & Kniffin, 3rd ed., 1886. Allen County KY. Vol. 3 p. 737. LAFAYETTE L. GATEWOOD was born December 19, 1837, in the community where he now resides, and is a son of Fletcher and Mary (Calvert) Gatewood. He is the second of four boys and eight girls, all of whom lived to be grown. The father of our subject was born near Augusta, Ga.; when a lad of six year he was brougt by his parents to Allen County, Ky., where he resided in the eastern part of the county on a farm of 300 acres, except years spent in Scottsville, engaged in the hotel business. He was school commissioner at his death, which occurred in January, 1871, at the age of sixty-six years. Before the war he was the owner of some slaves; he was the son of John Gatewood, who married a Miss White, and emigrated from Georgia to Allen County, in 1810, and settled in the eastern part of the county. He was one of the patriots of the war for independence; was a farmer and of Irish descent. Our subject's mother was born in Virginia, and was a daughter of John Calvert, of Virginia, who immigrated to Kentucky after the war of 1812, in which he had served, and settled in Allen County. He was of Irish descent, and was one of the finest calculators in the county.

Lafayette L. Gatewood was reared on a farm and received but little schooling; after he arrived at maturity he concluded to educate himself, and for that purpose entered school; after one year's attendance at school the war broke out, and possessing a patriotic spirit, he enlisted in defense of the Union, Septembr, 1861, in Company A, Ninth Kentucky Infantry; took part in the battles of Crab Orchard, Chickamauga, Chatoonooga, Atlanta, Jonesboro, Peach Tree Creek and numerous skirmishes; was in all the engagements in which his regiment took part, except Shiloh and Stone River; was discharged as second sergeant in December, 1864, when he returned to his home and engaged in the mercantile business, at Scottsville for two years - one year in packing tobacco. He has since been engaged in farming. In 1868, he moved to Jackson County, Mo., where he engaged in farming for one year. He moved to Neosha County, KS., and entered 160 acres of land; one year later, on account of ill-health, he sold out and returned to Kentucky, where he has since been engaged in farming. He married, November 24, 1870, Georgie Follis, of Allen County, a daughter of Shelby B. and Elizabeth (Burton) Follis, who were born and reared in Allen County. Shelby B. Follis was a saddler by trade; since the war he has been engaged in farming. He was a son of Raven Follis, who married Mary Waggle - both early pioneers of Kentucky. Mr. and Mrs. Gatewood have had born to them seven children; six of whom are living: Lucy, Lillian, Clara Elizabeth, George Boone, Zilpha and Fayette Follis. Mr. Gatewood located where he now resides, February, 1871, on 100 acres of land. He cast his first presidential vote for John Bell; since the war has been a Democrat.
