Hello I am involved with a project drawing together all variants of the name including Maddock Mattox, Maddox, Mattick etc. I am working my way through counties that had a substantial number of these names in the past. I am not here to poach members but to ask those researching these names to visit Katheryn Haddad's website on Yahoo/Rootsweb. It has a strong American bias at the moment but us Brits on the mailing list would like to redress the balance by getting others to take an interest. Most of the americans on the list are also interested in following their family trees across the atlantic. Don't be put off by the dna interest as it is not a requirement of joining and there is an enormous amount of research freely available on the site all collected by Katheryn. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/maddoxdna/ http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~maddoxetc/ Philip Maddocks
