I have been thinking about this for the last week or so as too how or where the break down in the DNA chain came from. I followed the two Mattox links on the DNA page but the information was slim. I could not match any of the mem listed as being in the Carolinas or Tennessee with any of the know Matlock's in the area. Until I found the note on King's Mountain. I remembered then that I had found a short article on the battle there and the spelling of the list of participates which I include below. Can anyone identify any of the men below? Thanks Terry... Joe Matlock Descendants of John Matlock Generation No. 1 1. JOHN7 MATLOCK was born in Virginia. Notes for JOHN MATLOCK: "The claim of John's action at Kings Mountain with a force of Tennessee Militia under the leadership of John Seiver was previously not known to me and is best explained by the following from a report of chronology records received from Marie Matlock Harris 5 April 1994. This report is currently published on the family website. Ms Harris reports "John MADDOX [Before we say for sure this isn't one of our MEDLOCK --I have to tell you that John MATLOCK that died on King Mt. .... the scribe of who ever wrote his name, used the MATTOX spelling .. witting it --- MATL (crossing the T & L) MATTLO->then turning the C to form the back of the K == forming an X = MATLOCK = MATTOX. I probably would not have seen what they had done; except, for the word Buckskins --- I will never know why I ordered this mans will - on which I have to tell you; his brother spelled MATLOCK 7 so was his wife's name Rachel MATLOCK & his brother Charles MATLOCK - the word BUXSKINS - used the same form of writing, the "C" to form the back of the letter "K", thus BUCKSKINS = became BUXSKINS. This John MATTOC, is the John killed in the Kings Mt. Battle. He had 2 brothers - Charles and Edward. " The birth dates of his children would make him a very old man at the time of the battle and this claim continues to need work."

COMMANDERS AT KINGS MOUNTAIN, by J. D. Bailey p. 191"CAPTAIN JOHN MATTOCKS" "He was another South Fork boy who was killed when the enemy made their bayonet charge down the hill, first firing off their guns. The only account we have of previous services rendered by Mattocks is that given by Major Thomas Young, when he helped to avenge the death of a young Captain Reid, who was treacherously murdered by two Tories---Love and Saddler. Says Young: 'We started, rode all night, halted in the day, kept watch in the woods, but slept not; the next night we arrived at old Love's. The house was attacked, and the door broken down by a powerful man by the name of Maddox, who was afterwards killed at King's Mountain. In staving open the door, he floored old Love and knocked some of his teeth out.' Young spells the name Maddox, instead of Mattocks, but the same person is referred to.''Captain Mattocks had a brother, Charles, who participated in the battle with him, and interceded for a Tory brother, Edward, who was severely wounded there, and cured of his Toryism. The family removed to Georgia after the war.""William Rabb and John Boyd" "These two privates were also killed in the early part of action, and they, with Major Chronicle and Captain Mattocks, are buried in one grave at the branch which is marked by the old monument. This monument was erected by Dr. William McLean of Lincoln county, at his expense, in 1815, and bears the following inscriptions: On the north side: 'Sacred to the memory of Major William Chronicle, Captain John Mattocks, William Rabb and John Boyd, who were killed at this place on the 7th of October, 1780, fighting in defense of America.'

Good Morning Tom yes thank you very much. The research is all about the details. Every bit of information is like another piece of the puzzle.

I went to Shawns website.. and Jess Armstrong had this to say about one of the Littleberries.. I would have to guess that this LB was the one on the Document with Rial.. LITTLEBERRY, born ca 1786 in Virginia. While not proven, seerns to be the son of Luke Matlock. Records indicate he enlisted for service in the War of 1812 in Dickson Co., Tn. the same day and in the same outfit as James. In 1819 Littlberry was in Limestone Co., Al. From there he went to Tippah Co., Mississippi. Deeds show that his wife was Nancy. Their children, while not a complete list, included the following: Emeline who married Peter D. Smith; Margaret who married Charles Smith and went to Texas in the 1840's; Charles Edward who married Elvira Holloway in Limestone Co., Ala., went to Miss. (he lived there at the time thence to Bossier Parish, La. ; Claiborne who married Margaret Elizabeth Frame (widow Shoffit) in Rusk Co., Tx. ; Lewis James who married Amanda Jane Bell in Tippah Co.,Miss. and rnoved to Rusk Co., Tx., Manuel shown in 1850 Rusk Co., Tx. census, reportedly went to California; Berry B. married Corilla J. Whorton, no children, who went to Bossier Parish, La. with Charles Edward and Doctor D. who stayed in Miss. until after the Civil War in which he fought, came to Tx. for a short while, went back to Miss. and later to Tennessee. Nancy, wife of Littleberry died between 1840 and 1850. Littleberry died after 1855

Thank you Sam, and as Wanda indicated that Rial appears to be the son of Absolom.. The Rial that Im wondering who his parents are Has very little info on him.. All that I have seen is that he first appears on a tax list in 1805 Roane Co TN. 1806 in Roane Co Rial married Nancy Mahan...1807 he is jailed in the Hamilton Dist area, 1809 he is on a Roster in Rhea Co TN 1810 he is on a Petition which was taken from Giles Co TN.. a Berry Matlock was on that list as well.. (Brothers perhaps?) 1811 he shows up in Pendelton Co SC on Vagrancy Trials... The last on him is in 1816 and it indicates that Rial escasped from the County Jail in Robertson Co TN. LETTERS OF THE TENNESSEE GOVERNORS JOSEPH MCMINN 1815 - 1821 (Part 1 ) Cheatham, Anderson 1816 Springfield, TN States that Rial Medlock, convicted of burglary has escaped from the Robertson County jail and requests that a proclamation be issued for his capture. Whether he was captured or not I dont know... So that leaves us with.... Is Rial the son of Moore, and did Absolom name his son Rial after his brother? And who was the Berry that Rial was with in Giles Co TN? I have to guess that it isnt the Littleberry that married Phoebe Tharp that was in Wilson Co or Rutherford Co at that time.. According to Shawns site .. STEPHEN, married 1811 Wilson Co., Tn. Sarah Thompson. Littleberry Matlock surety. A Stephen listed as soldier of Indian Wars from Ala. probably same man. Apparently closely related to Littleberry, Charles and Zachariah. Littleberry and Zachariah married in Wilson and went to Alabama.... In 1815 Littleberry still in Wilson Co TN married Phoebe Tharp.. and according to the application that Pheobe applied for stated that " her said husband was drafted on or about the month of Sept. AD One Thousand Eight Hundred and Fourteen in Retherford County, State of Tennessee for the term of three months, that he actually served in said war for the term of three months and was honorably discharged in the month of Nov. AD One Thousand Eight Hundred and Fourteen in Retherford County in the State of Tennessee" So was the Berry Matlock that was in the Giles/Limestone Co AL area.. LB son of Moore, father of Rial, Brother of Rial, Or was it LB son of William of 02 77 (years old now) Or was he LB son of LB?

I wouldnt say Littleberry born 174ish has dropped off from site.. We have bits and pieces of his life.. If we are on the right track, that this Littleberry was born in the early 1740's and is the son of William of 02, What info that has been found so far is from when Littleberry would of been 35ish to about 60ish years old.. The last on LB is dated Nov 1st 1803 on a deed in Pendelton Co SC which indicated that LB and his wife Christian was "of" Grainger Co TN. If LB was born 1744 he would of been 59 years old in 1803.... As most know the census records for Early TN just arent there, by the time TN Does list a census for Grainger Co, it is 1810..and it states that this was Edited by Pollyanna Creekmore McClung Historical Collection, 1956. Lawson McGhee Library, Knoxville, TN. AGLL Microfilm Reel # V164-22 Note: A part of this census is missing. It is not known which part. This is not film of the original census, but a film of Ms. Creekmore's abstraction. So could LB of been on the missing part, who knows? 1830 is when the next census for Grainger Co ...Im sure by then this LB was either dead, at age 86, or marked in the age group in someone elses home who is listed as the "Head of House". The same goes for VA Census, The early ones just arent there Virginia starts their census in 1810 and by then LB had already left VA went to SC and then to TN. On the Grainger Co Web Site there is an 1809 Tax List, No Matlock or Medlock shows up. So all in all little bits and pieces from 35-almost 60 years old isnt bad.. I have to ask the question, Is it possible that there is only one LB? Could Littleberry son of Moore been born abt 1749/50 and Could his wifes name of been Christian and not Mary Light? We have a deed that names his wife Christian, Do we have anything that names a Mary? Could this LB of been the father of Charles Brook, Moses M, Littleberry, Zachariah, and a Stephen? Brenda

Hi Brenda. Here is one thing we have on Rial Medlock. From "Kentucky Ancestors" Parents and wife of Bolen Clark whose daughter Camilla, born 17 April 1801 in Kentucky. Married 30 Jan 1823 in Warren Co Ky to Rial Matlock born 29 Jan 1800 in South Carolina. I am also sure we had a court case involving Rial but can't find it now. I think Terry is out of town when she returns possibly she can find her copy. Sam PS in 1830 Rial is listed in Warren County Ky

Joe, Who do you think Rial belongs to? Any Clues? I Have Moses Moore as son of Littleberry born abt 1744.. Only reason why is because it is believed that Moses was born in Botetourt Co VA. and I think that bunch was "of" The Littleberry that went to SC and then TN I also am wondering if Littleberry's Wife Christian.. Was a Terry.. Littleberry was Neighbors or what ever with a Moses Terry.. Census wise, It appears that the Terrys traveled with Moses to Lawrence Co AL. Who do you all of you have as children of Moses M? Brenda

WAS 3 YEARS OLD WHEN HE SEEN HIS FIRST BEAR By S. C. Turnbo Jerry Turner son of Bradley and Mary (Harris) Turner who was born on Bear Creek 1 ½ miles below the mouth of Cheaten Creek in Boone County, Ark. November 18th, 1849, gives this bit of history of Bear Creek. "When I can first remember" said he, "Charley Whitely a Baptist preacher who lived on Bear Creek was the first man I ever heard preach. John Matlock (Medlock) was the man that owned the little mill on Bear Creek. West Moulden and Sterling Barker also lived on Bear Creek. Henry Thompson lived at Bear Creek Springs and is supposed to be first settler there. Zempsey Thomas lived 1 ½ miles north of the springs. Tile first school I ever attended was taught on Bear Creek one mile below where my father lived by Mrs. Katie Harris wife of William Harris. The school was taught in a small round log house with stick and dirt chimney and small poles were placed on the roof to hold the boards down. I only attended this school 9 days and I reached A base in the Blue Back Spelling Book at the end of the last day. I remember that John McCoy's three children, Nick, Catherine, and Mary and two of Lize Matlock's (Mealock) boys, Smith and Bill went to this school at the same time I aid. "I recollect".. said Mr. Turner, "When the emigrant train organized in the fall of 1856 and the early spring of 1857 and started to California and who were murdered at Mountain Meadows in September 1857." Among those that belonged to the train and was killed was John Beach aged 21 years. His parents lived on the Beach Farm on Kings River near the Beach iron works near where Osage Creek flows into Kings River. John had a brother named Abe and a sister named Susan. John was a remarkable fellow. He was only 4 feet 6 inches tall and would put a silver dime on his big toe nail and stoop forward without bending his legs and lick the money off of his toe with his tongue. He was also able to bend his body and legs backward and pick up a brass pin from the floor without touching his hands to anything to prevent him falling over. Well about the wild beast. I will say that there were no lack for them on Bear Creek. I was just 3 years old when I seen my first bear, which happened in this way: My father and mother, Turn Walker and Mary Ann his wife were going along the side of the field one day near our house. My father was carrying me in his arms when all at once there was a disturbance among the hogs. The bunch was rallying while one of them was squealing. I recollect that father put me over the fence on the inside of the field and the two men and two women started in haste toward the hogs leaving me to cry as loud as I could which I did. My father and Walker thought it was wolves that got in among the hogs and they had run to scare them away. We had one dog we called Guess and he ran ahead and began baying when the men and women approached near enough they found that it was not wolves but a bear which had killed a shoat by the time they reached there and had it up in his arms going off with it, but the dog and men and women made the beast drop it and his bearship made his escape for the time. They picked up the shoat and come back where they had left me and we all went to the house and the men and women drened the shoat and weighed It which was 30 pounds. In a few days afterward Charley White shot and killed a bear in his field near John Matlock's (Medlock) mill which weighed 400 pounds neat. My father and others said that they were confident that this was the same bear that killed the shoat." FUN stories!

Jana RECOLLECTIONS OF A WIDOW WOMAN By S. C. Turnbo Mrs. Mary Sanders widow of Hiram Sanders relates the following. "I was born on Finley Creek in Wright County, Mo. in 1837. My parents were [Isaac and Prudie Medlock]. My mother died on Finley Creek when I was 8 years old. My father died in Illinoise. All the early settlers that I have a distinct recollection of that lived on Finley Creek near where we lived was my grandfather [Henry and Rachell Medlock] and my uncle Bill Williams and my aunt Rhoda Williams. I came to Lick Creek below where Gainsville Mo. now is in 1847 and was married to Hiram Sanders in 1853. We were married on the old John Sanders land on Lick Creek. This place is near one mile below the Steve Sanders Place. Cage Foster was a justice of the peace then and he officiated. I remember the names of some of the citizens who lived on Lick Creek. There were Joe and Bob VanMeter who were brothers. Joe's wife was named Sarah. Bob married Polly Turley daughter of Jake Turley. There was also Abe West and Rhoda West his wife. John Howell and Eliza his wife. Sole Workman, Jim Workman and Elizabeth Workman were children of Isaac Workman but were grown when I first saw them and there was Capt. Ben Bray who was killed or died a natural death at Springfield Mo. during the war. These all lived on Lick Creek in the early days of Ozark County. The first school I went to was taught on Lick Creek by Charles Goobey one half mile below where Steve Sanders lived. The first day of this school is very vivid in my mind from the reason that I cried all day. I was afraid that I would violate the rules of school and get a whipping. Steve Sanders wife was named Annie. She was a daughter of Cage Foster. Fosters wifes name was Sally. Grandfather Allin Sanders we always called him was my husbands father. His wife was named Annie, who one day picked a spot of ground where she said she desired to be buried. This is on what is now the Doctor Arnold Place one half a mile above the mouth of Possom Walk Creek, and when she passed over the dark river of death her remains received interment where she wished to rest. There are also two of Jake Foster's little girls buried there, the names of which were Mary Elizabeth and Sarah Eliza. Mr. Thomas Guifford the first merchant at Gainsville formerly lived at Rock Bridge. When he came to where Gainsville now stands he hauled the logs of a log building and put them up and covered the wall and put his goods and groceries in it until he could construct a better house. Guifford's wife was Sarah Ann daughter of John Sanders. Tom Lord the noted chimney builder built a number of stone chimneys in Ozark County before the war. Some of his work is standing to the present day. Soon after the close of the war in 1869 he built a black smith shop on Gooley's Spring Creek and lived there several years and made horse shoes and shod horses and did much other work for the settlers. One day he went up on the hill near the black smith shop and selected a place to be buried which was near a post oak tree. He marked the spot by placing a stone on it and when the time arrived for him to quit shoeing horses and depart from this world his body was given burial where he requested to be laid. Mr. Lord's son Bartlet is also buried there and his grandson Morgan Wood is buried there. Morgan was a son of Jim Wood and Sally Ann, daughter of Tom Lords. Millie a sister of Tom Lords married Jim Barnette another noted blacksmith. ==== MATLOCK Mailing List ==== GREAT search engines! http://www.theultimates.com/ (6 engines in one!) http://www.metacrawler.com/ (10 engines in one!) http://www.bc1.com/users/sgl/ (focused on genealogy links) ==== MATLOCK Mailing List ==== To UNSUBSCRIBE from this list, email MATLOCK-L-request@rootsweb.com, use no subject line and write only the word UNSUBSCRIBE in the message body.

McQueary After reading the 1983 Progress Edition of the Branson paper, Vera M. McQueary of Illinois wrote the following information. "My great grandmother was Salina Yates << Matlock>> and I learned a lot of local history from her. She was raised on White River and told me about the Kimberling Ferry. My great grandpa Matlock’s family came there from either Tennessee or Kentucky and started the ferry. They didn’t like the country so sold out to the Kimberlings and returned to their former home. My great grandpa stayed and married my great grandmother. Great grandmother’s father and brothers fought on opposite sides in the Civil War. It was brother against brother, and father against some of his own sons. While the men were away at war, raiders came through at the time the children had measles. ‘Those old carpetbaggers,’ as they were called, took everything. Every blanket, quilt and all, except the clothes they had on. Some clothes were stored in the attic and they wrapped themselves in those. The carpetbaggers camped in sight of the house that night. The family had a crippled cow with a calf. The carpetbaggers killed the calf and roasted it over a big bonfire. The family had a black nanny and all the children called her Nanny. She took care of the children and they loved her and considered her one of the family. When the war was over, government men came to free Nanny. They said that she could stay if my great grandmother’s family would pay her. There was no money to pay her and she was taken away. Nanny was crying as was the family but they took her anyway. Great grandmother’s grandfather Yates was an Indian and she had great admiration for him. She would tell how he could was so quiet you couldn’t hear him. He was tall and straight as an arrow. I don’t remember what happened to him. Great grandma’s mother was Mary Heal. I am from Stone County but I was born in Carroll County, AR. My father was Ira Wesley White of Blue Eye, MO.

WHOA! http://thelibrary.springfield.missouri.org/lochist/turnbo/v22/st652.html Look at this! WAS 3 YEARS OLD WHEN HE SEEN HIS FIRST BEAR By S. C. Turnbo Jerry Turner son of Bradley and Mary (Harris) Turner who was born on Bear Creek 1 ½ miles below the mouth of Cheaten Creek in Boone County, Ark. November 18th, 1849, gives this bit of history of Bear Creek. "When I can first remember" said he, "Charley Whitely a Baptist preacher who lived on Bear Creek was the first man I ever heard preach. John Matlock (Medlock) was the man that owned the little mill on Bear Creek. West Moulden and Sterling Barker also lived on Bear Creek. Henry Thompson lived at Bear Creek Springs and is supposed to be first settler there. Zempsey Thomas lived 1 ½ miles north of the springs. Tile first school I ever attended was taught on Bear Creek one mile below where my father lived by Mrs. Katie Harris wife of William Harris. The school was taught in a small round log house with stick and dirt chimney and small poles were placed on the roof to hold the boards down. I only attended this school 9 days and I reached A base in the Blue Back Spelling Book at the end of the last day. I remember that John McCoy’s three children, Nick, Catherine, and Mary and two of Lize Matlock’s (Mealock) boys, Smith and Bill went to this school at the same time I aid. "I recollect".. said Mr. Turner, "When the emigrant train organized in the fall of 1856 and the early spring of 1857 and started to California and who were murdered at Mountain Meadows in September 1857." Among those that belonged to the train and was killed was John Beach aged 21 years. His parents lived on the Beach Farm on Kings River near the Beach iron works near where Osage Creek flows into Kings River. John had a brother named Abe and a sister named Susan. John was a remarkable fellow. He was only 4 feet 6 inches tall and would put a silver dime on his big toe nail and stoop forward without bending his legs and lick the money off of his toe with his tongue. He was also able to bend his body and legs backward and pick up a brass pin from the floor without touching his hands to anything to prevent him falling over. Well about the wild beast. I will say that there were no lack for them on Bear Creek. I was just 3 years old when I seen my first bear, which happened in this way: My father and mother, Turn Walker and Mary Ann his wife were going along the side of the field one day near our house. My father was carrying me in his arms when all at once there was a disturbance among the hogs. The bunch was rallying while one of them was squealing. I recollect that father put me over the fence on the inside of the field and the two men and two women started in haste toward the hogs leaving me to cry as loud as I could which I did. My father and Walker thought it was wolves that got in among the hogs and they had run to scare them away. We had one dog we called Guess and he ran ahead and began baying when the men and women approached near enough they found that it was not wolves but a bear which had killed a shoat by the time they reached there and had it up in his arms going off with it, but the dog and men and women made the beast drop it and his bearship made his escape for the time. They picked up the shoat and come back where they had left me and we all went to the house and the men and women drened the shoat and weighed It which was 30 pounds. In a few days afterward Charley White shot and killed a bear in his field near John Matlock’s (Medlock) mill which weighed 400 pounds neat. My father and others said that they were confident that this was the same bear that killed the shoat." FUN stories!

Jana RECOLLECTIONS OF A WIDOW WOMAN By S. C. Turnbo Mrs. Mary Sanders widow of Hiram Sanders relates the following. "I was born on Finley Creek in Wright County, Mo. in 1837. My parents were [Isaac and Prudie Medlock]. My mother died on Finley Creek when I was 8 years old. My father died in Illinoise. All the early settlers that I have a distinct recollection of that lived on Finley Creek near where we lived was my grandfather [Henry and Rachell Medlock] and my uncle Bill Williams and my aunt Rhoda Williams. I came to Lick Creek below where Gainsville Mo. now is in 1847 and was married to Hiram Sanders in 1853. We were married on the old John Sanders land on Lick Creek. This place is near one mile below the Steve Sanders Place. Cage Foster was a justice of the peace then and he officiated. I remember the names of some of the citizens who lived on Lick Creek. There were Joe and Bob VanMeter who were brothers. Joe's wife was named Sarah. Bob married Polly Turley daughter of Jake Turley. There was also Abe West and Rhoda West his wife. John Howell and Eliza his wife. Sole Workman, Jim Workman and Elizabeth Workman were children of Isaac Workman but were grown when I first saw them and there was Capt. Ben Bray who was killed or died a natural death at Springfield Mo. during the war. These all lived on Lick Creek in the early days of Ozark County. The first school I went to was taught on Lick Creek by Charles Goobey one half mile below where Steve Sanders lived. The first day of this school is very vivid in my mind from the reason that I cried all day. I was afraid that I would violate the rules of school and get a whipping. Steve Sanders wife was named Annie. She was a daughter of Cage Foster. Fosters wifes name was Sally. Grandfather Allin Sanders we always called him was my husbands father. His wife was named Annie, who one day picked a spot of ground where she said she desired to be buried. This is on what is now the Doctor Arnold Place one half a mile above the mouth of Possom Walk Creek, and when she passed over the dark river of death her remains received interment where she wished to rest. There are also two of Jake Foster's little girls buried there, the names of which were Mary Elizabeth and Sarah Eliza. Mr. Thomas Guifford the first merchant at Gainsville formerly lived at Rock Bridge. When he came to where Gainsville now stands he hauled the logs of a log building and put them up and covered the wall and put his goods and groceries in it until he could construct a better house. Guifford's wife was Sarah Ann daughter of John Sanders. Tom Lord the noted chimney builder built a number of stone chimneys in Ozark County before the war. Some of his work is standing to the present day. Soon after the close of the war in 1869 he built a black smith shop on Gooley's Spring Creek and lived there several years and made horse shoes and shod horses and did much other work for the settlers. One day he went up on the hill near the black smith shop and selected a place to be buried which was near a post oak tree. He marked the spot by placing a stone on it and when the time arrived for him to quit shoeing horses and depart from this world his body was given burial where he requested to be laid. Mr. Lord's son Bartlet is also buried there and his grandson Morgan Wood is buried there. Morgan was a son of Jim Wood and Sally Ann, daughter of Tom Lords. Millie a sister of Tom Lords married Jim Barnette another noted blacksmith. ==== MATLOCK Mailing List ==== GREAT search engines! http://www.theultimates.com/ (6 engines in one!) http://www.metacrawler.com/ (10 engines in one!) http://www.bc1.com/users/sgl/ (focused on genealogy links) ==== MATLOCK Mailing List ==== To UNSUBSCRIBE from this list, email MATLOCK-L-request@rootsweb.com, use no subject line and write only the word UNSUBSCRIBE in the message body.

Hi Wanda, No, not at all, but I will go back and see if there are further MEDLOCK references - I found this looking for another line yesterday ....

Wanda It would not surprise me one bit to have any two of them mixed. ONE: I think the Littleberry of abt 1744 that married Christian and disappears is the son of William of 1702 and Elizabeth (Witt??????). I have found one reference listing his wife as "Catherine Light" Moses Moore born about 1775 I can only find as the son of Littleberry and Mary Light. The Stepchild is software issue I can't seem to get right. Two The Littleberry that marries Phebe Tharp and goes to Franklin County, Alabama, I have as the son of Littleberry who married Mary Light but dies is Wilson County, Tennessee on or about 1848. Charles B. and Charles B. are first cousin. What I have is below except for some war service notes. Rial I have placed with Moore and Jane Powell Matlock. This would make Moore 50 when Rial is born. Makes me proud of him but I would suspect Rial is a grandson. Thanks for all of your help Joe Matlock Descendants of Charles Brooks Matlock Generation No. 1 1.

I'm thinking that you are combining two Littleberry's together... but I may be wrong. Just not real sure about some of these older families....especially since there is not much documentation. One: Could it be.....Littleberry that was married to Christian (maiden name unknown) was the Littleberry that was in Botetourt Co, VA, Grainger Co, TN then to Pendleton County, South Carolina. Last heard of there about 1803. This Littleberry may be connected to the Charles and John that were in Grainger Co, TN one died about 1799 and the other about 1801. They were mentioned on a military pargaraph that has been posted on Botetourt Co, VA. All coming to Grainger County, TN with McPherson's and Rector's. I'm thinking that this Littleberry may be son of William (1702) and was born in the 1740 range. And I'm also thinking that Moses Moore born about 1775 may be a son of Littleberry and Christian. If not he may be a child of one of the ones that were in Grainger County. You have him as step child of Littleberry and Mary Light... Two: Littleberry of the Wilson Co, TN and then to Franklin Co, AL.. I have him as son of Moore and Jane. Born about 1755-1758. You have Charles Brooks Matlock in one statement died in 1819. I think that Charles B. may be Luke's Charles. Charles Brooks Matlock signed a deposition in AL for Tharp in 1842 maybe be brother to Littleberry that married Phoebe Tharp. Rial I have placed with Moore and Jane Powell Matlock.

Im showing the in Jackson Co AL there was a marriage for a Rebecca Matlock that married a Drury Roberts on June 28 1828... Drury Roberts is on the 1840 Jackson Co AL Census Pg 30. It shows That Rebecca was 30-40 and Drury was 40-50 One male 10-15 and one male 15-20 1 Female 5-10,1 Female 10-15 and one female 15-20 Zachariah Matlock was on page 32 age 50-59 By 1850 I didnt find Drury or Rebecca Roberts, But I did find a Drury Roberts age 23 in Scotland Co MO that was born in AL Possible son of Rebecca and Drury? He would fit for the 10-15 age group. In 1860 I did find Rebecca and Drury in Jackson Co AL. Rebecca shows to be either 40 or 48. I believe this Roberts family had moved to Clark Co AL by 1860 Im wondering if this Rebecca is a daughter of Zachariah?
