I am from Lexington Co.,SC but am living in Aiken,SC. I have a lot of Kneece data as they intermarried into my Boatwright several times. But your Matilda does not have to be full-bloded Indian. Early census records were sometimes misleading. If a person had any Indian blood or any other non-white ancestry they were not classed as white but as whatever blood they had been " tainted " with. The Kneece line had Indian blood as well as the Hallman line and several other Lexington Co.,SC families.
