Here is an article that appeared in the Winter 2008-2009 "Generator." I plan to do another on the ancestry of William Mattingly. And another on a few of the early Mattingly women who married & became Mrs. X - them & their descendants buried at this cemetery. Again, I want to thank Lance Lynch for photographing the stones & posting them to the www.findagrave.com site. David David Roberts Editor, "Generator," SMCGS Subject: Generator :: Mattingly Settlement Cemetery Mattingly Settlement Cemetery Muskingum County, Ohio We published an article about William Mattingly {1784-1857} and the Catholic church at Mattingly Settlement, Nashport, Ohio, in the Fall 2008 [Generator]. In this issue, we will print a list of all Mattingly burials in that cemetery dated before 1920. These people would all descend from a branch of the Mattingly family that moved from St. Mary's County to the Cumberland, Maryland, area around the time of the American Revolution and then moved on to the new state of Ohio around 1810 and thereafter. Construction began on the Church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary or, more commonly, St. Mary's Church, in 1856 on land donated by William's nephew, John Mattingly. A cemetery was to be established on this donated Mattingly land, adjacent to the new church then under construction. William died on Holy Thursday 1857 and was the first person buried in the newly established cemetery. We wish to thank Lance Lynch of Nashport, Ohio, for photographing each stone at Mattingly Settlement Cemetery and posting his research and pictures to www.findagrave.com Among this pictures is one of an large and ornate memorial with a cross and an angel. This memorial marks the grave site of Christopher J. Mattingly and family. There were 354 burials listed for this cemetery on findagrave in late October 2008. Of these, 108 were people named Mattingly. Of course, many Mattingly girls married and they and their descendants are buried at this cemetery under different surnames. The last Mattingly burial recorded is 2008, so this listing is quite up-to-date.
