FUGATE FAMILY
Name: French origin. The name appears most frequently in 1990 in Kentucky and Tennessee at about 1:1,000, then in West Virginia, Indiana, Missouri, and Oklahoma at about 1:1,250. The name is rare elsewhere.
History:This family appears to have come to America from England and were probably of French descent. The early Fugates were located in Baltimore, and then in Mosquito and King George counties. The descendants moved into Russell County, Virginia. Mary Fugate married Archibald Prater and they moved into Magoffin County, Kentucky around Salyersville. Mary's family came to Magoffin County too, and her brother Randall is buried there. Other family members settled in Tennessee and Missouri. A line of Fugates that may be related to this family are the descendants of a Martin Fugate, who settled on Troublesome Creek, where he claimed a land grant. Martin had a blood disorder that caused his skin to appear to be blue, and he passed this trait on to some of his descendants -- who are known as The Blue Fugates of Kentucky
