Susie: Got so excited about the transcription I forgot your question. From what I understand, Dewey and Mattie adopted/raised Sophia's daughter Mary Ann as their own and she married a Jesse Roderick. I don't have any other offspring listed for them. I have Mary Ann's obit: Mary Anne Roderick, 77, of LaFollette, died Saturday, March 16, 2002, at Jellico Community Hospital. She was a member of Daughters of America, East LaFollette Baptist Church, and former employee of Smith Hardware for 24 years. She was preceded in death by husband Jesse W. Roderick , and parents Dewey and Mattie Wright. She is survived by daughter Mary Ann Ford of LaFollette and one granddaughter. Funeral services were held Tuesday at Walters Chapel. Interment was in the Woodlawn Cemetery. Again, Thank YOU for the transcription! Bonnie
