William Bates (Quaker)
William Bates, or William Bate, (died November 8, 1700) and other Quakers emigrated from Ireland to Gloucester County (now Camden County), New Jersey where in 1682 they established Newton Colony, the third English settlement in West Jersey.〔Clement, John (1877). "William Bates". ''Sketches of the first emigrant settlers in Newton Township, Old Gloucester County, West New Jersey''. Camden: Sinnickson Chew. pp. 47-56〕 William Bates was the first English-speaking settler of present day Oaklyn, New Jersey.〔〔Lang, Carole Ann (October 16, 1975). "William Bates, a builder of freedom". ''Weekly Retrospect''.〕
==Ireland==
In 1670, William Bates was a resident of County Wicklow, Ireland where he raised a family, including five children: Jeremiah, Joseph, Abigail, William, and Sarah.〔 Bates attended Quaker religious services which were held in the town of Wicklow.〔
Prior to 1674, West Jersey had been partitioned into five territories, each called a ''Tenth''. The five Tenths, stretching from Assunpink Creek southward to an area inclusive of the Cohansey River, fronted the Delaware River to the west. On April 12, 1677, title to the ''Third Tenth'' was conveyed to a group of Irish Quakers, or Proprietors. The Third Tenth ran from Pennsauken Creek to Big Timber Creek. In deference to the Proprietors and the original settlers, the Third Tenth was called the ''Irish Tenth''.〔 From the Irish Proprietors ''William Bates, carpenter, of the county of Wickloe'', and four Dubliners: Joseph Slight, Thomas Thackara, Robert Turner and Robert Zane each received a right to acreage. The amount of acreage was specified but the precise location would be selected by its owner upon arrival and subject to a survey.
