I think it is generally agreed that Ignatius Mattingly, son of Leonard Mattingly and Mary Hayden had a son named Henry because he mentions this son in his will "Item 9th; My son Henry has drawn from me $18'D dollars that together with my Cherry Run tract of land which I bequeath for the use of his wife (no first name) Mattingly and her children in the hands of Jno. Lancaster as trustee at eight hundred dollars after charging the said Henry with the said two amounts he shall draw so as to make one full share of my estate.". It seems we also agree that Henry was born about 1801 and that he married Juliette Kidwell, later moved to Daviess County, Indiana and is buried in St. Peter's Cemetery, Montgomery, Daviess County, Indiana. A possible scenerio I have been discussing with another researcher, is that perhaps Henry Mattingly, son of Ignatius, was actually the Henry Mattingly that married Cecelia Knott and was born about 1813, not 1801. We know that Ignatius had a son named Stephen A. born in about 1810 so having Henry born in 1813 is not out of the question. All of the children of Ignatius remained in Kentucky with the exception of Henry, and for a short time, Stephen but Stephen returned and died in Meade County, Ky. I suppose the real question is - Do we have any concrete proof that the Henry who married Juliette Ann Kidwell was actually the son of Ignatius. The will of Ignatius does not mention the name of Henry's wife and I'm wondering do we simply have this 1801 Henry attached to Ignatius for any reason other than we put him there at one time and have simply come to accept the connection as fact.
