Winnie, Thanks for your reply. I too have the John Wesley for Moore and Jane Powell Matlock. Researchers have him as married to Margaret...and children. No one can tell me where the names came from. I'm writing the people that Joe listed yesterday to see if anyone there can give me an answer. Thanks again.....have a Wonderful day.

I am of the opinion we are dealing with two or three John Wesley MATLOCK's .... (no proof all In can give you is stepping stones) .... Let's say John MATLOCK and Hestor WATSON ... is no. 1.1 in my Journal ... [no. 1.1.5. is Moore MATLOCK & Jane POWELL] [no. 1.1.5.1. is Zachariah MATLOCK & Edith PAINE] I have three John Wesley MATLOCK's for 1.1. John, all on the 1.1.5. branch: 1.1.5.1.1. Isham MATLOCK & Nancy HALIE's branch has two: (page 131) 1.1.5.1.1.1.1.2. John Wesley MATLOCK b. 31 Dec 1859 ... m. Mary Ellen FURRAY, 14 Sep 1881 also: (page 140) 1.1.5.1.1.1.9. John W. MATLOCK b. 1846, left Miss. for Okalahoma Has a note with it ... I found a John Wesley MATLOCK who moved to Okalahoma from Phelps Co. Mo. married Permella GLENN, and d. in Texas in 1916. Then I have a John Wesley MATLOCK on page 262 ... this is the 1.1.5.3. John Caswell MATLOCK /Mary MERRICK branch [still 1.1.5. Moore MATLOCK/ Jane POWELL's line] 1.1.5.3.1.7. John Wesley MATLOCK b. 21 Oct 1823 and d. 5 Apr 1891 m. Elizabeth B. FLOWERS, 18 Oct 1848, TN. I have long been curious about the name "WESLEY" I have two ... Wesley MATLOCK's in my Journal ... ( both still on the 1.1.5.3. John & MERRICK line .... it is poss. they are the same Wesley .... by different sources) 1. Wesley I. MATLOCK b. May 1874, in OR. (page 263) Lived near Goshen, Lane Co. OR. had wife, Annette they had Albert L. age 10 and Aslie B. (dau.) age 5 2. Wesley N. MATLOCK ... no. 1.1.5.3.1.3.1.2. (with photo) (pages 264 & 271) Please let me know if you settle the Wesley question for I hope this helps. You present day researchers are all so skeptical and shy from my work ... that I mostly hold back now and just enjoy what is happening on the MATLOCK MAILING list ... it is so "COOL" ...
