In 1850 SC there shows to be Jasper as well as a Newton... Jasper Medlock son of Sarah and WHO???? 1850 MEDLOCK JASPER Laurens County SC 320 Laurens District Jasper Medlock 23 MW SC Farmer Value land $100 Isabella 20 FW SC John 9/12 MW SC Sarah Medlock 60 FW SC Newton son of Elizabeth and WHO 1850 MELLOCK ELIZABETH Laurens Co SC 300 Sullivan Twp Elizabeth Mellock 47 WF B SC Newton 19 WM SC Beddy C. 24 WF SC John F. 10 WM SC I dont think that the Newton youve listed for JOHN TRAINUM2 MEDLOCK is his father I think that Jasper and Isabella ( above) are his parents From John: We do know that Newton left SC and went to AR. We are not sure of the exact route he and his family traveled, but do know that a grandson was born in Booneville, Prentiss, MS. in 1895. This grandson, Thomas Jefferson Medlock, later was also buried in Woods Chapel Cemetery in Paragould, Greene, AR. along with his Father, John Trainum Medlock and brother Wheeler Jackson Medlock. Wheeler was born 1900 in Haleyville, Winston, AL. Newton was buried December 02, 1920 at the Woods Chapel Cemetery in Paragould, Greene, AR. Newton's marker is either buried or indecipherable from weathering as to make it unlocatable. John W. Turner" <[email protected]> Looking at John Medlock in 1900 Winston Co AL you can find the family there: That John says in 1900 that he was born in 1850. By looking above you can see that John has a son Jasper who was born in 1850… this John also names a son Jasper, and Wheeler is there as well. Newton while in 1850 is still at home with his mother and has no son. 1900 MEDLOCK JOHN Winston Co AL 218 John Medlock WM Head Jan 1850 50 M 11y SC SC SC Farme Louisa WF Wife Sep 1865 35 5/5living SC SC SC William WM Son Sep 1870 29 S SC SC SC John M WM Son June 1880 20 S SC SC SC Jasper WM son May 1885 15 S SC SC SC Chansley WF Dau Mar 1890 10 S AL SC SC Thomas WM Son June 1995 4 S AL SC SC George W WM Son May 1897 3 S AL SC SC Ell? WM Son Dec 1898 1 S AL AL SC Wheeler WM Son Apr 1900 ?/12 AL SC SC So wouldnt it be Wheeler.. son of John ..son of Jasper and Isabella and not Wheeler son of John son of Newton? In 1850 Newton who was in the war.. was 19 and living at home with his mother and not married with a son John.... It appears that John had a first wife... ??? Married second Louisa ??? abt 1889 John by his first wife was the father of William, John M and Jasper, and John and Louisa were the parents of Chansley? ( Couldnt hardly make her name out) Thomas, George W, Ell??? and Wheeler. I am looking for this family in 1920.. AR.. If I find any of them Ill let you know. Brenda
