Melissa What you see below is about all I have. You can contact my source persons and ask for furthre proof. Joe Matlock >>> "Melissa Hill Dees" <[email protected]> 02/13/01 05:48AM >>> Dear Joe: Any evidence that Mary MEDLOCK was Garrison Gibson's mother? I hate to keep beating a dead horse but until I can prove his parentage, I'm stuck. From what I read below, there is documentation for the DAR. If this is so, did John fight in the Revolutionary War? I would love to trace my MEDLOCKs back over the ocean...Thanks in advance for any info.

I believe that you are right that he was born out of wedlock. I think his mother was Mary Medlock daughter of John Medlock. I don't know Johns wifes name. If Mary was Garrisons mother that would make her my great great grandmother. We probably will never know who his natural father was. I am sure my Garrison and your Garrison are one and the same because my Garrison was born July 19,1820 and died Nov.13,1896. The information I have on the Medlock family came from records used by my family to join the DAR, UDC,Daughters of the Colonies, Sons of the Confederacy, Sons of the Revolution, and etc.If Mary is Garrisons mother what happened to her?????????? No records have we found of Mary after the birth of Garrison. I don't have any records on Nathaniel Medlock who was he? Garrison is probably buried in Clayton or Henry County Georgia. > Children of MARY MATLOCK are: > 3. i.
