Seeking info and other descendants of Jackson/Robertson/Matthews of Taney County. My g-g-grandfather: Aaron V. MATTHEWS, b. 1830, IL--d. 1883, MO; buried Bradleyville Cemetery My g-g-grandmother Matthews probably died in IL before Aaron and children moved to MO; Aaron married in Taney County: Martha Jane WALKER, b. 1840, TN--d. 1893, MO; Martha first married R. HIGHT; second Aaron MATTHEWS; third R. WAGGONER. My g-grandmother, Susan MATTHEWS, b. 1858, IL--d. 1891, TX My g-g-grandmother: Eliza Jackson, b. 1820, AL--d. 1881,MO; buried Bradleyville Cemetery My g-g-grandfather????: Richard Robertson, b. 1807, NC--d. 1887, MO; buried Bradleyville Cemetery My g-grandfather: Samuel L. Jackson, b. 1847, MO--d. 1892, TX Still working on the mystery of Samuel's father. I have evidence from Green Co., MO court records that Richard Robertson may have been Samuel's father; there was a charge of adultery filed against Eliza and Richard there in the 1850's. Eliza and children lived next door to Richard in Green County and in Taney County. 1870 census shows Eliza and Samuel living with Richard and his wife, Nancy. Eliza and Richard are buried next to each other in Bradleyville Cemetery......with Richard's wife buried on the other side of Richard. (It seems pretty strange to me, too.....I just can't figure it out :-) But my grandfather maintained that Richard Robertson was his grandfather. Following are some census records showing children of Eliza Jackson, Richard Robertson and Aaron Matthews. Any info very much appreciated.
