Gosh Harriet.. I sure hope you talk him into the DNA Testing.. Sure would be nice to have his to see who Smiths line matches up with Brenda

Thanks Joe... I seen a mention of Rebecca Miller being a Quaker.. I checked Hinshaws books and What Rebecca Miller I found in the IN area wasnt here.. was hoping for a lead there... Brenda

<G> Orrrr, you could come up with a game that involves getting cheek cells to look at under a microscope with the grandchildren and save a few to send in <G>.... What Joe said is exactly right. Let him know his *name* will not be associated, he will be id-ed just by a number. As a member of a line that seems pretty impossible to "nail down" he would be doing us all a HUGE service!

I posted a message in which I said that some of William Matlack's descendants owned plantations in Virginia. My memory failed me, again. The Will I was thinking of that included plantations in Virginia was Haines, not Matlack. The one Matlack that I know moved from New Jersey to Virginia is a Timothy Matlack. The information I have on him follows. Curt Miller Descendants of Timothy MATLACK Generation No. 1 1. TIMOTHY6 MATLACK (BENJAMIN5, JOHN4, WILLIAM3, GEORGE2 MATLOCK, JOHN1) was born Abt. 1763 in New Jersey, and died 1794 in Culpeper Co., Va.. He married HESTER ELDRIDGE December 19, 1785 in Evesham Township, Burlington Co., N. J., daughter of ABRAHAM ELDRIDGE and MARY LIPPINCOTT. Notes for TIMOTHY MATLACK: The following quote is recorded in the Wonderland - Matlack Family History. It is from the records of Asa Matlack, born in October 23, 1783. "Timothy Matlack of Benjamin and Jane Cheeseman Matlack was married 1786 to Hester, (Esther), Eldridge of Abraham and Mary and removed with his family in or about 1786 to Culpepper County Va. where my Uncle Samuel and father saw him and family at Culpepper Court House being (jailer) or keeper of the prison at that place in the 11th month of 1790. Timothy died at 31 years of age." Timothy changed the spelling of his name to Matlock in Virginia. His will is recorded in Will Book D, 1791 - 1803 (reel 32), page 135 - 136. His will was probated on 16 Sept. 1794. The Inventory & Appraisal was recorded on page 138 - 139 on 20 Oct. 1794. Notes for HESTER ELDRIDGE: Asa Matlack, see notes for her husband, spelled her name Esther. Her name is spelled Hester on her marriage certificate at the New Jersey Archives in Trenton New Jersey. Her name is recorded as Hestor Matlock in the 1810 census for Culpeper County, Va. She was over 45 and owned 4 slaves. No white people are listed as living with her. The 1820 census records Hestor living in Culpeper County, Virginia, She owned 4 slaves, 3 male and 1 female. Three people were engaged in manufacture. I assume these were the male slaves. Her name is recorded as Esther Matlack in the 1830 census for Culpeper County She owned 6 slaves, 1 male under 10, 3 females under 10, 1 female 10 to 24, and 1 female 36 to 55. The 1840 census records Esther living in Culpeper County. She owned 8 slaves, 2 males under 10, 1 male 10 to 24, 1 female under 10, 4 females 10 to 24, 1 female 24 to 35, and 1 female 36 to 55. Two people are listed as working in agriculture. Child of TIMOTHY MATLACK and HESTER ELDRIDGE is: i. JOSEPH7 MATLOCK. Notes for JOSEPH MATLOCK: Joseph's father changed his name from Matlack to Matlock when he moved to Virginia. Joseph's descendants probably spell their name Matlock. Page 106 of the 1810 census for Culpeper Co., Va. lists a Joseph Matlock, aged 16 to 25, living with his wife, also aged 16 to 25. Since the only Matlock's listed in the 1810 census for Culpeper Co. were Hestor Matlock, page 103, and Joseph Matlock, Joseph was probably the son of Hestor, widow of Timothy Matlock. The 1820 census for Culpeper Co. does not include Joseph, but a Joseph Matlock with two children was living in Orange Co. which is next to Culpeper Co.

Joe, I keep seeing Pittsylvania Co..Va. mentioned. Some researchers have Margaret Ann Arthur who married Thomas(Isham Elias) Matlock 19 Jul 1816 in Washington Co Ky. Margaret was born 10 Sept.1798 in Pittsyvania Co Va. Her parents were Alexander Arthur and Isobel Hamilton.. The Arthurs were in Mo. about the same time as the Matlocks. Were these families traveling together? Some have Margaret Ann born in Bathgate Paroch, West Lothian, Scotland, maybe her folks were from Scotland. Just thinking. Melba

Hi Brenda I was checking the encyclopedia Shawn had posted on his web site and could not find a Daniel born early enough to qualify. Perhaps we have a new emigrate. There are two Thomas Medlock born August 20, 1808, but I have been able to account for both, neither with the colonel. The Thomas that married Rebecca Miller is well researched and published and has a active group all his own (thanks again guys and Wanda) . I did find one other reference a Lt. Charles Medlock (not even the same rank) who has a father named Daniel. I put it in so I would not lose it and have included it below. I tried to update the note but the email bounced..

Thanks to the urging of an 87 year old cousin, I have spent the last twoweeks (pretty much 12 hours a day!) sifting, sorting, shuffling andsearching through all of the information that you all have so kindly shared in previous communications which are duly noted on the genealogy file on disk. I recently received access via TexShare to the Texas State Library and have a few tidbits to share maybe tomorrow, but for today I thought I would share this narrative that I prepared for my cousin. If you happen to see anything that you feel is in error, please let me know. Special thanks go to Jim Sims, Sheila Shannon Lawson and Susan Gillberg, but every single one of you have added invaluable information to this really e-x-t-e-n-d-e-d family. Regards,Sandy Morris (in Dallas, TX) * * * * * * * * * *Thomas R. and his family were living in Lampasas Co., TX when the 1870census was taken. By 1880, the family had moved to Burnet Co., TX. The1890 census was destroyed by fire in the 1920s, and we have yet to findThomas R. and Elizabeth on a census for 1900. In 1881, Thomas R. filed an application for Letters of Guardianship ofthe estate of Charles Medlock (his half-brother) in Llano Co., TX. Hisclaim was denied when Charles' wife prevailed and was appointed herhusband's guardian. In 1907 Thomas R. made application in the State of Texas for a pension for service to Texas during the Civil War (Confederate). His occupation was listed as doctor and farmer. On the application he stated that he was 69 years old (which means that his year of birth would have to have been 1838). He stated that he was living in Hamilton Co. and that his post office for the last 30 days was Vista, which was crossed out and Star written in. He said he took a cough in the war and still has it and is unable to work; that he served in Texas Co., B 17th Reg. Allens Regt. in infantry; that he has lived in Ft. Smith, AR and in Indian Territory but has been back to Wise Co., TX during the period 1880 to present; said he was a resident of Brownville in Wise Co., TX when he enlisted. No muster roll was found with Medlock's name but his application was approved. Elizabeth died before 1910 in Lampasas Co., TX. In 1910, Thomas R. was shown as an uncle living in the household of Robert H. Huffman in Hamilton Co., TX. Thomas R.'s date of death is believed to be between 1911 and 1915. He died of T.B. at his son Frank's house in McCullough Co., TX, and is buried at Calf Creek Cemetery. According to the Encyclopedia of MATLOCK/MEDLOCK, Thomas R. was a farmer but mostly traveled in what once was called a "hack", selling various goods and merchandise. According to various researchers, Thomas R. Medlock was styled as a doctor in some records. He frequently traveled between Texas and Arkansas. One researcher noted: Over the years, however, Thomas R.'s lack of significant taxable property in the historical records seems inconsistent with the expected wealth of a physician. Another researcher stated that there is a story in his family that Thomas R. was a patent medicine man and that he traveled a lot and was not a good provider for his family; that he did not serve in the Civil War but did receive a pension from Texas.

I'm thinking this Thomas that was in IN is connected to Thomas Henry Matlock/Medlock who died in Clark Co., AR. Thomas Henry was in IN in 1829 (and who knows for how long after that). Thomas Henry's father died in 1829 in Morgan Co., IN. MARRIAGE: Thomas Medlock to Elizabeth Dosset, 4 Dec 1834; Martin Co, Indiana. Perhaps his Thomas married Elizabeth in 1834. However, Charles his son was born 17 Jul 1834 or atleast that is what I have. This Thomas in 1870 is in Clark Co., in 1870 where his father died in 1854. Just my two cents worth. Later.

Regards, Sandy Morris (in Dallas, TX) * * * * * * * * * * MEDLOCK DESCENDANTS OF LT. COL. CHARLES MEDLOCK First Generation Lt. Colonel Charles Medlock was born in North Carolina probably around 1778 to Daniel Matlock-Medlock. From the "Encyclopedia of MATLOCK/MEDLOCKS", we know that Charles was married and produced at least one surviving son, Thomas Medlock. The date and place of Charles' death are currently unknown. Second Generation Thomas Medlock was born about 1808 in South Carolina, and he is believed to have died after 1880 in Arkansas. Over the course of his life, he had three wives and eight surviving children. Thomas Medlock's first wife was Elizabeth Dorsett (sometimes shown as Dosset), the daughter of Nathaniel Dorsett. Elizabeth was born around 1815 probably in Indiana. She and Thomas were married in 1835 in Martin County, Indiana. Children from this marriage were: Charles Medlock, born July 17, 1834 in Indiana Elizabeth Medlock born about 1835 in Indiana. There is a record in Martin Co., IN, in 1838 of an Elizabeth Medlock divorcing a Thomas Medlock. After separating from Elizabeth, Thomas is presumed to have moved toward the Missouri area where he met Rebecca Miller, the woman who would become his second wife. Rebecca was born about 1817 in Tennessee. Thomas married Rebecca about 1838 in Houston Co., TX. Children from this marriage were: "Polly" - Mary Ann Medlock, born Sept. 29, 1836 in Missouri "Dr." Thomas R. Medlock, born 1844 in Missouri or Tennessee John Copal Medlock, born Nov. 26, 1846 in Houston Co., Texas Rebecca Medlock, born 1848 in Houston Co., Texas Henry C. Medlock, born March 1850 in Houston Co., TX "Jerry" - Jeremiah Marr Medlock, born Oct. 20, 1857 in Llano Co., TX Thomas and Rebecca were still living in Houston Co., when the 1850 census was taken on October 30, 1850. By 1852 they had moved to Bell Co., TX, where Rebecca bought the land, not Thomas. The laws of the day did allow women to own property in their own name. Rebecca died in 1857. Thomas Medlock 's third wife was Amanda Bilberry born in 1835. Thomas married Amanda around 1859. Where they were married is unknown but it is known that they lived in Arkansas for a while. There is a record in Clark Co., AR, that Amanda Medlock, wife of Thomas Medlock, bought land in that county. By 1860, they had returned to Texas with their three young children and were living in Belton, in Bell Co., along with four of Thomas' children by Rebecca Miller; Thomas R., John, Rebecca, and Henry. Children from this marriage were: Amanda Medlock, Born January 1860 Gideon Medlock, born March 1868 Sarah Ann Medlock, born May 1870 In 1876, Thomas received a preemption grant for 160 acres of land in Llano Co., TX, which he had to have homesteaded for the past three consecutive years and which puts them in that area by at least 1873. Amanda Medlock died some time before 1880 but Thomas Medlock was still living at the time that the 1880 census for Llano Co., TX. was taken. He is listed on the 1880 census of Llano Co., TX, as Charles Medlock but this is believed to be a mistake on the part of the census taker. He is believed to have died in 1880, but after the census was taken. In any event, his death is documented in court records as occurring some time before June 3, 1885. One researcher who is a Bilberry descendant thinks that Thomas and Amanda and their three young children returned to Texas to be close to their families and possibly to support the family of Thomas' son Charles as Charles' health began to fail. He also believes that it is significant that Amanda bought the land, and not Thomas. Based on his research of the various wives and families he is of the opinion that Thomas Medlock had a milder form of the same medical condition that afflicted his son Charles Medlock. Third Generation Dr. Thomas R. Medlock was born in 1844 in either Missouri or Tennessee based on information contained in the US census. By November of 1846, his parents had moved to Houston Co., TX. He was still living at home with his parents in Houston Co., TX, when the 1850 census was taken and in 1860 when the Bell Co., TX, census was taken. Thomas R. married Mary Elizabeth Slover about 1868. Elizabeth, the daughter of Enoch Slover and Pauline Stotts, was born 1852 in Madison Co., AR. The children from this marriage were: "Becky" - Rebecca F. Medlock born 1869 in Arkansas "Molly" - Mary Margaret Elizabeth Medlock born Dec. 10, 1970 in AR "Bill" - William Medlock born 1876 in Texas "Wes" - John Wesley Medlock, born April 3, 1876 in Texas "Bob" - Robert Medlock, born 1878 possibly in Burnet Co., TX "Sary" - Sarah Mary Medlock, born 1880 "Annie" - Laura Anne Medlock, born March 28, 1881 Lampasas Co., TX "Emma" - Emma A. Medlock, born June 12, 1885 in Arkansas Thomas R. and his family were living in Lampasas Co., TX when the 1870 census was taken. By 1880, the family had moved to Burnet Co., TX. The 1890 census was destroyed by fire in the 1920s, and we have yet to find Thomas R. and Elizabeth on a census for 1900. In 1881, Thomas R. filed an application for Letters of Guardianship of the estate of Charles Medlock (his half-brother) in Llano Co., TX. His claim was denied when Charles' wife prevailed and was appointed her husband's guardian. In 1907 Thomas R. made application in the State of Texas for a pension for service to Texas during the Civil War (Confederate). His occupation was listed as doctor and farmer. On the application he stated that he was 69 years old (which means that his year of birth would have to have been 1838). He stated that he was living in Hamilton Co. and that his post office for the last 30 days was Vista, which was crossed out and Star written in. He said he took a cough in the war and still has it and is unable to work; that he served in Texas Co., B 17th Reg. Allens Regt. in infantry; that he has lived in Ft. Smith, AR and in Indian Territory but has been back to Wise Co., TX during the period 1880 to present; said he was a resident of Brownville in Wise Co., TX when he enlisted. No muster roll was found with Medlock's name but his application was approved. Elizabeth died before 1910 in Lampasas Co., TX. In 1910, Thomas R. was shown as an uncle living in the household of Robert H. Huffman in Hamilton Co., TX. Thomas R.'s date of death is believed to be between 1911 and 1915. He died of T.B. at his son Frank's house in McCullough Co., TX, and is buried at Calf Creek Cemetery. According to the Encyclopedia of MATLOCK/MEDLOCK, Thomas R. was a farmer but mostly traveled in what once was called a "hack", selling various goods and merchandise. According to various researchers, Thomas R. Medlock was styled as a doctor in some records. He frequently traveled between Texas and Arkansas. One researcher noted: Over the years, however, Thomas R.'s lack of significant taxable property in the historical records seems inconsistent with the expected wealth of a physician. Another researcher stated that there is a story in his family that Thomas R. was a patent medicine man and that he traveled a lot and was not a good provider for his family; that he did not serve in the Civil War but did receive a pension from Texas. Fourth Generation John Wesley Medlock was born in Texas on April 3, 1876. In 1880, he was living in his parent's home in Burnet Co., TX. Presumably, he was still living at home when the 1890 census was taken. To date, I have not found either John Wesley or his parents in a census for 1900. Old correspondence indicates that he was always called John by his parents and siblings, but as an adult, his friends and neighbors called him Wes. Wes married Ollie Vandalee Harper somewhere around 1897. Ollie was the daughter of John Clinton Harper and Amanda Elizabeth Hurt and may have been born in Arkansas. Children from this marriage were: Jesse Medlock, born before December 4, 1898 Gussie Blanch Medlock, born March 14, 1900 in Center, Indian Territory We have very little information on this family beyond several old letters and photographs that had belonged to their daughter Gussie. Their granddaughter, Aleene McCauley, says that she thinks that Wes and Ollie had four or five children but that only her mother Gussie survived. Based on correspondence and photographs, Wes and Ollie lived in Tecumseh, Indian Territory between December 4, 1897 and June of 1898. There is a photograph of Ollie taken by a photographer in Ardmore that I would date to around 1900. One photograph attests to Wes' membership in the Woodsmen of the World fraternity. Family and friends' stories attest to Wes' love of horses. Ollie died on September 7, 1907, in Center, Oklahoma, and is buried in the old Center Cemetery. Wes' second wife was Mary Iva Watson, born September 1890 in Baxter County, AR, who he married around 1908. Children from this marriage were: Albert Ray Medlock Thomas Wesley Medlock Cuba Alice Medlock Ruby Sue Medlock Shirley Margaret Medlock Mary Ada Medlock In 1910, Wes, Mary, Gussie and Ray were living in Center, Pontotoc Co., OK. According to information from Cuba Brown and an old letter from his brother, Matt Medlock , sometime between 1916 and 1917, Wes and Mary set out for Arizona in hopes of establishing a homestead. The trip apparently didn't go well and the family returned to Oklahoma. By 1920, they had moved their family to the Vanoss community and Mary's father, James Watson, was living with them. Mary and her step-daughter Gussie were life-long friends. Gussie always called Mary Maymie and eventually everyone, including her own children, called her Maymie. Around November 14, 1927, Wes and Mary were living in Sulphur, Murray Co., OK. Wes received a letter from his sister Annie Roberts who was living in Menard, TX. Wes had written to his sister Emma who also lived in Texas that he was in ill health and may have asked for help in some way. Emma had written to Annie and Annie stated that she hoped to be able to come and visit him the following summer. Just after March 1, 1929, Wes received a letter from Emma who expressed her hope that his health was improving. She wrote him about all of her immediate family and updated him as best she could on their other siblings. According to his granddaughter, Aleene, to her he was always a "mystery man" who spoke little of his family or where he had come from. As a child, she felt that he was "already an old man" when she knew him. He had diabetes and took what was then a new medicine -- insulin. Just before his death, he had decided to go to Texas to visit his sister Emma and he boarded the train from Ada, OK, bound for the Rio Grande Valley in Texas. "Apparently he got on the train but didn't take anything with him to eat. He had anticipated stopping somewhere along the way, maybe at Ardmore, OK, and eating, so he went ahead and took the insulin without anything to eat. He was in insulin shock by the time the train stopped at Ardmore, OK, and he was taken to a hospital where he died." Wes died on July 1, 1929, and is buried in the old Center Cemetery alongside his first wife, Ollie Vandalee. His small flat tombstone lies in the shade of Ollie's. * * * * * MEDLOCK DESCENDANTS OF LT. COL. CHARLES MEDLOCK First Generation Lt. Colonel Charles Medlock was born in North Carolina probably around 1778 to Daniel Matlock-Medlock. From the "Encyclopedia of MATLOCK/MEDLOCKS", we know that Charles was married and produced at least one surviving son, Thomas Medlock. The date and place of Charles' death are currently unknown. Second Generation Thomas Medlock was born about 1808 in South Carolina, and he is believed to have died after 1880 in Arkansas. Over the course of his life, he had three wives and eight surviving children. Thomas Medlock's first wife was Elizabeth Dorsett (sometimes shown as Dosset), the daughter of Nathaniel Dorsett. Elizabeth was born around 1815 probably in Indiana. She and Thomas were married in 1835 in Martin County, Indiana. Children from this marriage were: Charles Medlock, born July 17, 1834 in Indiana Elizabeth Medlock born about 1835 in Indiana. There is a record in Martin Co., IN, in 1838 of an Elizabeth Medlock divorcing a Thomas Medlock. After separating from Elizabeth, Thomas is presumed to have moved toward the Missouri area where he met Rebecca Miller, the woman who would become his second wife. Rebecca was born about 1817 in Tennessee. Thomas married Rebecca about 1838 in Houston Co., TX. Children from this marriage were: "Polly" - Mary Ann Medlock, born Sept. 29, 1836 in Missouri "Dr." Thomas R. Medlock, born 1844 in Missouri or Tennessee John Copal Medlock, born Nov. 26, 1846 in Houston Co., Texas Rebecca Medlock, born 1848 in Houston Co., Texas Henry C. Medlock, born March 1850 in Houston Co., TX "Jerry" - Jeremiah Marr Medlock, born Oct. 20, 1857 in Llano Co., TX Thomas and Rebecca were still living in Houston Co., when the 1850 census was taken on October 30, 1850. By 1852 they had moved to Bell Co., TX, where Rebecca bought the land, not Thomas. The laws of the day did allow women to own property in their own name. Rebecca died in 1857. Thomas Medlock 's third wife was Amanda Bilberry born in 1835. Thomas married Amanda around 1859. Where they were married is unknown but it is known that they lived in Arkansas for a while. There is a record in Clark Co., AR, that Amanda Medlock, wife of Thomas Medlock, bought land in that county. By 1860, they had returned to Texas with their three young children and were living in Belton, in Bell Co., along with four of Thomas' children by Rebecca Miller; Thomas R., John, Rebecca, and Henry. Children from this marriage were: Amanda Medlock, Born January 1860 Gideon Medlock, born March 1868 Sarah Ann Medlock, born May 1870 In 1876, Thomas received a preemption grant for 160 acres of land in Llano Co., TX, which he had to have homesteaded for the past three consecutive years and which puts them in that area by at least 1873. Amanda Medlock died some time before 1880 but Thomas Medlock was still living at the time that the 1880 census for Llano Co., TX. was taken. He is listed on the 1880 census of Llano Co., TX, as Charles Medlock but this is believed to be a mistake on the part of the census taker. He is believed to have died in 1880, but after the census was taken. In any event, his death is documented in court records as occurring some time before June 3, 1885. One researcher who is a Bilberry descendant thinks that Thomas and Amanda and their three young children returned to Texas to be close to their families and possibly to support the family of Thomas' son Charles as Charles' health began to fail. He also believes that it is significant that Amanda bought the land, and not Thomas. Based on his research of the various wives and families he is of the opinion that Thomas Medlock had a milder form of the same medical condition that afflicted his son Charles Medlock. Third Generation Dr. Thomas R. Medlock was born in 1844 in either Missouri or Tennessee based on information contained in the US census. By November of 1846, his parents had moved to Houston Co., TX. He was still living at home with his parents in Houston Co., TX, when the 1850 census was taken and in 1860 when the Bell Co., TX, census was taken. Thomas R. married Mary Elizabeth Slover about 1868. Elizabeth, the daughter of Enoch Slover and Pauline Stotts, was born 1852 in Madison Co., AR. The children from this marriage were: "Becky" - Rebecca F. Medlock born 1869 in Arkansas "Molly" - Mary Margaret Elizabeth Medlock born Dec. 10, 1970 in AR "Bill" - William Medlock born 1876 in Texas "Wes" - John Wesley Medlock, born April 3, 1876 in Texas "Bob" - Robert Medlock, born 1878 possibly in Burnet Co., TX "Sary" - Sarah Mary Medlock, born 1880 "Annie" - Laura Anne Medlock, born March 28, 1881 Lampasas Co., TX "Emma" - Emma A. Medlock, born June 12, 1885 in Arkansas Thomas R. and his family were living in Lampasas Co., TX when the 1870 census was taken. By 1880, the family had moved to Burnet Co., TX. The 1890 census was destroyed by fire in the 1920s, and we have yet to find Thomas R. and Elizabeth on a census for 1900. In 1881, Thomas R. filed an application for Letters of Guardianship of the estate of Charles Medlock (his half-brother) in Llano Co., TX. His claim was denied when Charles' wife prevailed and was appointed her husband's guardian. In 1907 Thomas R. made application in the State of Texas for a pension for service to Texas during the Civil War (Confederate). His occupation was listed as doctor and farmer. On the application he stated that he was 69 years old (which means that his year of birth would have to have been 1838). He stated that he was living in Hamilton Co. and that his post office for the last 30 days was Vista, which was crossed out and Star written in. He said he took a cough in the war and still has it and is unable to work; that he served in Texas Co., B 17th Reg. Allens Regt. in infantry; that he has lived in Ft. Smith, AR and in Indian Territory but has been back to Wise Co., TX during the period 1880 to present; said he was a resident of Brownville in Wise Co., TX when he enlisted. No muster roll was found with Medlock's name but his application was approved. Elizabeth died before 1910 in Lampasas Co., TX. In 1910, Thomas R. was shown as an uncle living in the household of Robert H. Huffman in Hamilton Co., TX. Thomas R.'s date of death is believed to be between 1911 and 1915. He died of T.B. at his son Frank's house in McCullough Co., TX, and is buried at Calf Creek Cemetery. According to the Encyclopedia of MATLOCK/MEDLOCK, Thomas R. was a farmer but mostly traveled in what once was called a "hack", selling various goods and merchandise. According to various researchers, Thomas R. Medlock was styled as a doctor in some records. He frequently traveled between Texas and Arkansas. One researcher noted: Over the years, however, Thomas R.'s lack of significant taxable property in the historical records seems inconsistent with the expected wealth of a physician. Another researcher stated that there is a story in his family that Thomas R. was a patent medicine man and that he traveled a lot and was not a good provider for his family; that he did not serve in the Civil War but did receive a pension from Texas. Fourth Generation John Wesley Medlock was born in Texas on April 3, 1876. In 1880, he was living in his parent's home in Burnet Co., TX. Presumably, he was still living at home when the 1890 census was taken. To date, I have not found either John Wesley or his parents in a census for 1900. Old correspondence indicates that he was always called John by his parents and siblings, but as an adult, his friends and neighbors called him Wes. Wes married Ollie Vandalee Harper somewhere around 1897. Ollie was the daughter of John Clinton Harper and Amanda Elizabeth Hurt and may have been born in Arkansas. Children from this marriage were: Jesse Medlock, born before December 4, 1898 Gussie Blanch Medlock, born March 14, 1900 in Center, Indian Territory We have very little information on this family beyond several old letters and photographs that had belonged to their daughter Gussie. Their granddaughter, Aleene McCauley, says that she thinks that Wes and Ollie had four or five children but that only her mother Gussie survived. Based on correspondence and photographs, Wes and Ollie lived in Tecumseh, Indian Territory between December 4, 1897 and June of 1898. There is a photograph of Ollie taken by a photographer in Ardmore that I would date to around 1900. One photograph attests to Wes' membership in the Woodsmen of the World fraternity. Family and friends' stories attest to Wes' love of horses. Ollie died on September 7, 1907, in Center, Oklahoma, and is buried in the old Center Cemetery. Wes' second wife was Mary Iva Watson, born September 1890 in Baxter County, AR, who he married around 1908. Children from this marriage were: Albert Ray Medlock Thomas Wesley Medlock Cuba Alice Medlock Ruby Sue Medlock Shirley Margaret Medlock Mary Ada Medlock In 1910, Wes, Mary, Gussie and Ray were living in Center, Pontotoc Co., OK. According to information from Cuba Brown and an old letter from his brother, Matt Medlock , sometime between 1916 and 1917, Wes and Mary set out for Arizona in hopes of establishing a homestead. The trip apparently didn't go well and the family returned to Oklahoma. By 1920, they had moved their family to the Vanoss community and Mary's father, James Watson, was living with them. Mary and her step-daughter Gussie were life-long friends. Gussie always called Mary Maymie and eventually everyone, including her own children, called her Maymie. Around November 14, 1927, Wes and Mary were living in Sulphur, Murray Co., OK. Wes received a letter from his sister Annie Roberts who was living in Menard, TX. Wes had written to his sister Emma who also lived in Texas that he was in ill health and may have asked for help in some way. Emma had written to Annie and Annie stated that she hoped to be able to come and visit him the following summer. Just after March 1, 1929, Wes received a letter from Emma who expressed her hope that his health was improving. She wrote him about all of her immediate family and updated him as best she could on their other siblings. According to his granddaughter, Aleene, to her he was always a "mystery man" who spoke little of his family or where he had come from. As a child, she felt that he was "already an old man" when she knew him. He had diabetes and took what was then a new medicine -- insulin. Just before his death, he had decided to go to Texas to visit his sister Emma and he boarded the train from Ada, OK, bound for the Rio Grande Valley in Texas. "Apparently he got on the train but didn't take anything with him to eat. He had anticipated stopping somewhere along the way, maybe at Ardmore, OK, and eating, so he went ahead and took the insulin without anything to eat. He was in insulin shock by the time the train stopped at Ardmore, OK, and he was taken to a hospital where he died." Wes died on July 1, 1929, and is buried in the old Center Cemetery alongside his first wife, Ollie Vandalee. His small flat tombstone lies in the shade of Ollie's. * * * * * * * * * *

Good Morning all Good to here from you again Cleburne... Ok I am guessing here but we have a Virginia family that just melts into the Carolina land scape I have not found. I suspect that these may be some of the lost boys who later, like so many went West to Texas, Arkansas and Missouri... Cleburne...Have you considered the DNA project? Your line would be wonderful candidate... Joe Matlock Descendants of John Matlock Generation No. 1 1. JOHN7 MATLOCK (WILLIAM6, JOHN MOORE5, JOHN4, GEORGE3, JOHN2, WILLIAM1) was born Abt. 1734, and died Aft. 1780 in Burke County, North Carolina. He married JUDAH JUDITH WITT 22 November 1756 in Goochland County, Virginia, daughter of JOHN WITT and ELIZABETH LIPTROT. She was born Abt. 1735 in Virginia. Notes for JOHN MATLOCK:From Lou PERO, 10 Oct 1992; Dear Winnie, The descendants of John MATLOCK were associated with the HUSLEY's and the two families stayed together for over 100 years, down through the Dan River area of N C/Va border - New Kent Co. VA., & Burke Co. N.C. during the Rev War and then into Greenville Co. S.C. by about 1785. John MATLOCK was a brother-in-law of Charles HULSEY, their wives apparently the daughters of John WITT. On 2 Jul 1756, a son, Charles, was born to Charles HUSLEY and Hannah WITT. On 1 Jul 1759, a daughter, Parthenia was born to Charles HUSLEY and Anna WITT. [Note: Lou PERO was a non MATLOCK, but she found the above information when searching for her family history ... I wonder if the name she mentions as "HUSLEY" could possibly be "HORSLEY"?] Arthur Fred Jones, JrEntries: 250 Updated: Sat Aug 25 22:31:14 2001 Contact: Terri Jones aimwolf@yahoo.comID: I180 Name: John MEDLOCK Matlock Sex: M Change Date: 24 NOV 2000 Marriage 1 Judah WITTMarried: 22 NOV 1756 in Henry County, Virginia Note: Note: They lived in Henry County, Virginia and Rockingham County,North Carolina.

Joe Greene, 611 Tarragona Way, Daytona Beach, FL 32114, (1991, now deceased) has researched the Matlocks, and gave me my best clues to the origins of the Hulseys, since he had tracked the Matlocks by noting their close association with the Hulseys. Something of this same thing is possible with the Matlocks. Here is one paragraph from a very informative letterfrom Joe to Anna and me: "...Based on the 'Douglas Register' I conclude that John Matlock (Medlock) and Charles Hulsey of Goochland Co were brothers -in-law, who both married Witts, probably sisters....John Matlock and Charles Hulsey bought adjacent land in Greenville Co, SC around 1789/1790. So did Charles Estes and Jesse Chandler. I feel these families intermarried....Jesse Chandler seemed to be closely connected with the family of Michael Henderson. My g-g grandfather James Medlock (who married a Sallie Jones) named a daughter Mary Henderson Medlock. Silas Medlock, probable brother to James Medlock, named a son, Henderson Medlock, according to the 1850 census (not verified by other family records). I suspect James and Silas were sons of Nathaniel Medlock, of the same area, and grandsons of the aforementioned John Matlock. Nathaniel Matlock may have been brother to your Mary Matlock, who married Garret Rutledge in 1791 and then Waddy Thompson, according to your letter."Birth: 1773 in Pittsylvania County, Virginia Note: Her birthdate is derived from the fact that she said she was near 69 years of age when she applied to receive the back pay for Robert Thompson. The map locks and the whole cities apparently lived near each other and probably intermarried from the early 1700s. In the first two or three pages of the Hulsey book, I listed all the deeds I could find for both families. It appears to me that they must have been living in Pittsylvania County, Virginia, which later became Henry County about the time Mary was born. This area is right along the Virginia/North Carolina border. I think they then moved to Rowan County, North Carolina from which Burke County was formed in 1777, and from there to Greenville County, South Carolina probably a few years later. Mary says she wasbrought up in Greenville County. I should add that earlier researchers thought she had said Granville district, but to me it looks like Grinville, which would most likely be Greenville.1 Census: 1850 Franklin County, Alabama Note: She is in the household of John Tharp, her age given as 75 born South Carolina.

However, given the name Cleburne (heavily used in the Weddle line) and the Franklin Co., AR address, I would not be surprised to learn this line fits somehow with the Richard Matlock line - perhaps not thru direct decadency, but by some connection. I am also quite curious as to what you might know about the family in Laurens Co., SC as several researchers have said that Richard Matlock (Medlock) lived with "wife #1" in SC where their children were born. When wife #1 died about 1800, Richard married Mary Weddle and they settled in Hawkins Co., TN. We know from the census that the only person with a surname close to ours in Laurens Co was: 1800 MATTACKS JOHN Laurens District SC 015 00100-20100-00 (John shows no "males under 10" here, so if he is the correct line, Silas was b. after the enumeration) On the other hand, circling Laurens, the counties are: Spartanburg, Greenville, Anderson, Abbeville, Greenwood, Newberry, and Union Counties. In those counties in 1800 we find: GREENVILLE CO 1800 MATLOCK JOHN Greenville County SC 269 00001-10101-00 1800 MEDLOCK CATHERINE Greenville County SC 271 20100-40100 1800 WHITLOCK NATHANIEL Greenville County SC 270 21201-21210 NOTE 1: Nathaniel has been indexed Matlock and Whitlock.There is some question to what it really is. We will listed it as Whitlock but my first reading was Matlock. NOTE JMB: both Catharine and Nathaniel show males under 10, so Silas could belong to them??? ABBEVILLE CO 1800 MATLOCK NATHANIEL Abbeville District SC 019 31010-20010-00 NOTE JMB: This Nathaniel also shows males under ten, so would be a possibility This would constitute our "fishing pond" for Silas.... Joe will have to let you know if he has records including any of these families to include or eliminate a Silas.... Good luck and let us know what you learn!!!

I received this email from Cleburne Medlock. Can you help him?

My name is Cleburne Waldemar MEDLOCK, Jr., s/o (Dr. Cleburne Waldemar MEDLOCK, b. 21 Oct 1879, Franklin Co. AR, d. 1972, s/o (Harvey Dreyton MEDLOCK, b. 1843, Laurens Co, SC, s/o (Silas MEDLOCK & Catherine Gaines MURFF))). Silas was b. circa 1800 in Laurens Co. SC and lived there until sometime after the 1850 census. Ten years later, my Gf Harvey is listed in the 1860 Census for Pike Co. AR, living in the home of Dr. James Cannon. There he enlisted in the 19th (Dawson's) Arkansas Infantry Regiment of the CSA for the Civil War. Shortly after the end of the "War", he moved to Franklin Co AR and obtained land there. Could your MEDLOCKs and mine have common ancestors? Please reply, letting me know whether or whether not you think that might be the case, and, if so, who those ancestors of both of us were. (In particular, I need to find the father of Silas; it has been suggested by others that this was a "John" M., b. 1773, but I have seen no "children of John and . . ." that lists Silas as a son.) Most sincerely, Cleburne Waldemar Medlock, b. 22 Feb 1934, Tulsa, OK
