Wm. Carroll Major - General 2d Division Tennessee Militia. NOTE: The above Charles B. Matlock appears on the census records of Franklin Co., Ala. in 1820, 1830 and 1840.According to these records, Charles B. Matlock had at least 9 children. By 1850 all this family seems to have disappeared from the county. To my knowledge, no one is working on this line.
