Their sons were Smith Matlock, b. 1852 and William Matlock, b. 1854. There were several daughters, also. Elizabeth's brother, Francis Marion White was my greatgrandfather. Would you have any information, anything at all, that might help me find Francis Marion (Frank)? Elijah was the son of John Matlock, Sr. and Mary Jefferson. Gary White GarySorry but I do not have anything further on the White family. Does your family referr to Elijah as Medlock or Matlock?Joe Matlock Posted By: Gary White Email: Subject: Re: Elijah Matlock Post Date: March 20, 2003 at 22:44:05 Message URL: http://genforum.genealogy.com/matlock/messages/1633.html Forum: Matlock Family Genealogy Forum Forum URL: http://genforum.genealogy.com/matlock/ Everything I have spells it "Matlock."
