I would't be surprised to learn that John and Dykeander were in Kentucky. Several of their children were so why not them as well. At times it seems nearly everyone was leaving Maryland. Course, there's enough Mattingly's left in Maryland that we won't have to worry about running out of people to research there for a long time. **************** P.S. Let me double check this but I think that the John Baptist that was >in KY applied for benefits that were owed to him from service in the >Revolutionary War and he lists his wife as Dyeander Boswell. Don't hold me >to that and I'll double check it tonight.
