Hello Wanda,
I received notification that you had responded to my old query regarding the above couple and their family. Thank you for replying. I would be very interested in exchanging information with you. I am copying Clara Thompson on this e-mail. She and I have collaborated for a number of years on the Burch family.
I am attaching what I currently have on the descendants of Christian/Christopher and Mahala. We would also be willing to share what information we have on Mahala's parents. We have been told by the president of the Preston County (WVA) Genealogical Society that Christian Teats was a son of Michael. She apparently has proof of this from an old business ledger. She says that the ledger lists three sons that weren't in "the history book." We didnt' pursue this, however, because it isn't our line.

Just got back from Virginia. Found out Barbara & Eliabeth Miller are sisters. they are listed as children of George Mller on his will. At the time Elizabeth was listed as a widow. Will was in the Early 1830's. With this information it proves Michael drowned in 1829 0r 1830 Instead of 1850 As everyone has on their genealogy work. In 1837 Elizabeth sold the land from the will and she was remarried to a John Markley. They wouldn't Let us copy the will because it was so old. Phyllis.

Biography from McDonough County Illinois History Book [specific source unknown]:
"Alpha Teats, a farmer of Industry Township, was born March 3, 1831, in Preston County, West Virginia. His parents were Adam and Elizabeth (Mosser) Teats, who were likewise natives of West Virginia. His father was born in 1790, and his mother, July 13, 1793. Their marriage occured in 1813, and the former died in 1865 and the latter in 1869. Alpha was brought up on a farm and received his education as opportunity offered in the common schools, working hard during the summer months on the farm. He remained with his parents, engaged in the various duties incident to the farm life, until 22 years old, and then worked out by the month for about 3 years. He then came west, and first lived with Nathaniel Scott, in Chalmers Township, of this county, about two years, working by the month. Subsequently, he worked for other parties until 1860. Upon the 6th day of March of that year, he was married to Mary Vail, daughter of John Vail, Of Industry Township. By the union five children ---- Lucinda, born August 1, 1861; Adaline, born July 16, 1864; Nancy L., born September 24, 1865; John E., born January 23, 1868, and died August 21, 1869; and Bertha S., born January 18, 1877. Mr. Teets is now engaged in general farming and owns a farm on section 8, Industry Township, which is fairly well improved. Himself and wife are members of the Christian Church. Politically, he has always been a democrat."

Alpha Teats, a farmer of Industry township, was born March 3, 1831, in Preston county, West Virginia. His parents were Adam and Elizabeth (Moser) Teats, who were likewise natives of West Virginia. His father was born in 1790, and his mother July 13, 1793. Their marriage occurred in 1813, and the former died in 1865, the latter in 1869. Alpha was brought up on a farm and received his education as opportunity offered in the common schools, working hard during the summer months on the farm. He remained with his parents, engaged in the various duties incident to farm life, until 22 years old, and then worked out by the month for about three years. He then came west, and first lived with Nathaniel Scott, in Chalmers township, of this county, about two years, working by the month. Subsequently he worked for other parties until 1860. Upon the 6th day of March, of that year, he was married to Mary Vail, daughter of John Vail, of Industry township. By that union were five children—Lucinda, born August 1, 1861; Adaline, born July 16, 1864; Nancy L., born September 24, 1865; John E., born January 23, 1868, and died August 21, 1869, and Bertha S., born January 18, 1877. Mr. Teats is now engaged in general farming, and owns a farm on section 8, Industry township, which is fairly well improved. Himself and wife are members of the Christian church. Politically, he has always been a democrat.
