Hi Everyone, I hope someone is out there who can point me in the right direction for this surname. Here's what I have: Richard Maddocks-Mattocks,(etc)b. March 1756, his Rev War Pension papers sort of say in VA. A comma would make all the difference. His brothers Peter b. 1760 and Joseph b. 1765 in Sussex Co., NJ along with a sister living in Sussex Co. during the Rev. War tend to lead me to Sussex Co. NJ for his place of birth also. His parents names were Daniel and Prudence (unknown), this is from the Bible of Joseph Mattocks. The 1781 Tax List for Penns Township, Northumberland Co. shows Richard there with 150 acres. The 1790 Census shows them still in Northumberland Co. About 1797 they moved to Fallowfield Township, Crawford Co. and from there to Pymatuning Township, Mercer Co. where he died 30 May 1837. Richard's wife was Mary, possible maiden name Kline. Children I know of are Jacob, Sarah and Margaret. Margaret being my 3rd g-grandmother, she married Jacob Mattocks who died during the War of 1812, his father was also Jacob and possibly a brother or cousin of Richard. I'm doubtful of a Quaker connection but since there were Quakers with this surname in Sussex Co. I have included this mail list. Any information on these families would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Joyce Westmyer robertw1@ix.netcom.com
