I dont think Jemima and Lukes wife Elenor are one and the same.. Reason: Who Luke JR of 1806 marries is also of some question and has been debated before on ths list. My thought are as follows: JEMIMA ELEANOR8 CHOATE (JOHN7, SQUIRE THOMAS6, CHRISTOPHER5, CHRISTOPHER4, CHRISTOPHER3, CHRISTOPHER2, CHRISTOPHER1) was born 1810 in Tennessee. She married LUKE MATLOCK, son of LUKE MATLOCK and CHARITY CHOATE. He was born 1806 in Tennessee. Notes for JEMIMA ELEANOR CHOATE: In 1850 Jemima is living in Dickson County, Tennessee with her children E. D. and Absalom. Notes for LUKE MATLOCK: In 1850 this family is living in Humphreys County, Tennessee. His father Luke is also with them. In 1860 this family is living in Humphreys County, Tennessee. Luke senior is not shown children of JEMIMA CHOATE and LUKE MATLOCK are: i. JOHN9 MATLOCK, b. 1830. ii. F. D. MATLOCK, b. 1832. iii. WILLIAM C. MATLOCK, b. Abt. 1833, Tennessee; d. 1912; m. MARY ANN POPPY CHOATE, 13 September 1855, Dickson County, Tennessee; b. 1841; d. 1913. In 1860 this family is living in Humphreys County, Tennessee iv. ELLYANN MATLOCK, b. 1838. v. EDWARD MORGAN MATLOCK, b. 28 March 1838; m. MARTHA SARAH TURNER, 10 December 1863, Humphreys County, Tennessee; b. 30 September 1842; d. 26 April 1909. Your census iformation for 1860 in Barry County Missouri raises an interesting point. This is, (help me I am wrong) Luke SR of 1766 his son Luke Jr. b. 1806, (and wife Jemima b. 1810 or 1813 and son Abslum b. agt 1846) , daughter Anna 1803 with husband William Sooter and family with Sooter's brother Elisha We have Luke JR: 1850 and 1860 In Humphrey Co.. 1850 MATLOCK LUKE Humphreys County TN 099 No Township Listed Luke Matlock 44 WM Farmer B TN Eleanor 43 WF TN John 19 WM TN Ellyann 13 WF TN Edward 9 WM TN Elizabeth 4 WF TN Thomas 1 WM TN Luke Matlock Sr 84 WM SC Jemima is living in Dickson Co.. I dont think she is or was married to Luke JR I think Maybe she was married to the William who was in Dickson CO TN in 1840? I am just not sure.. but firgure she has to be married to a son of Luke for why would she be in the household of Anna and William Sooter... Anna would be Jemimas sister in law.. and Luke her father in law... In 1860 Absolom is there.. right age 14.. but Ed now 28 where is he at in 1860? 1850 MATLOCK JEMIMA Dickson County TN 112 Middle District Jemima Matlock 40 WF B TN E.D 18 WM Farmer TN Absolom 4 WM TN 1860 MATLOCK LUKE Humphrey County TN 159 District 10 Luke Matlock 50 WM Farmer TN Ellen 48 TN Ned 19 TN Elizabeth 15 TN Thomas 12 TN Martha 10 TN 1860 MATLOCK LUKE Barry County MO 901 Shoal Creek Township Wm.
