This is a Barry County probate but I found some of these surnames in Newton County and would like to know if there are connections.?? >> Hi Bill, I have a little info on this family. Matilda married Thomas Rutledge then married a Mr. Davidson. I "think" her maiden name was GAW. In the early years the family was in the area of Jackson and Overton Co, TN. I was unable to locate the remainder of my info on this family. I will try to find it and let you know. Rachel
