Sending this just in case it may ring a bell with someone. I am fairly certain the descendants attached to this man are correct. He was obviously a son of John M. Mattingly but I am still investigating to determine if that was John Miles Mattingly, as I currently carry him. His obituary, forwarded by Dolores Bohn, was in The Lebanon Enterprise, Friday, 11-30-1945. "C. H. MATTINGLY, 91, EXPIRES AT LORETTO - CHARLES HENRY MATTTINGLY, 91, died Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock at his home a mile from Loretto, on the Raywick Road. Death was due to the infirmities of age. Until recently, he had been in fair health but had been under a physician's care for several weeks. Mr. Mattingly was born at Holy Cross on September 13, 1854, a son of Mr. and Mrs. John M. Mattingly, long deceased. Practically all his life was spent as a farmer in the Loretto section, and he was married four times. A number of children survive, including Miss Rosie Bell Mattingly, Tom, Pete and Monroe Mattingly of Raywick, Mrs. George Mattingly of Finley, and two small children, at home. One brother also survives. Requiem Mass was intoned Monday morning at 8 o'clock at St. Charles Church by the Rev. Fred W. Dudine, and burial was in St. Charles Cemetery." The 1880 census finds Charles and Sarah in Loretto, Marion County, Kentucky with three children: Thomas; Monroe; and William. Charles was in the same location in 1900 with a wife named Lila, and five children at home: Alphonsus; Peter; Robert; Kate; and William. This William of 1900 was only two years of age and obviously not the same child named William on the 1880 census. The child named Alphonsus was of the near correct age to have been this earlier William. Perhaps his name was William Alphonsus but I carry him without the name William. The 1910 census finds Charles in the same area married to Lilla, age 44. Children in the home were Bob 20 (Robert); Kate 14; Will 11; and Eliza 6. By 1920, Charles wife's name was Lillie and I suspect this was the same wife as in the earlier census records as her age matches. At this time the children at home were: Pete; Eliza; George; and Mary. The 1930 census finds Charles aged 76 and married to 30 year old Mamie. There were three step-children in the home: Georgia Ray 12; Steve Ray 10; and Kelly Ray 8. Here are the children "I think" belonged to Charles Henry Mattingly. Thomas 5-3-1876 Monroe 1878 Alphonsus Apr. 1881 Peter Lee 6-28-1884 Robert Apr. 1890 Kate Aug. 1896 William June 1898 Eliza 1904 George 1905 Mary 1907 Two other children have been attributed to Charles but they do not appear on the 1920 census: Joseph F. 10-13-1916 and Josa M. 5-20-1922. (This latter child might have been Rosie Bell but I'm not sure at this stage and Rosie Bell never appeared on a census unless she was Kate or Mary; possibly Eliza.
