The Hood County Query and Family Data Page has a new entry: ------------------------------------------------------ Just read the obituary for Judge DAVIS; did not realize his sister was a Mrs. Wm. MATLOCK. This is one of my family names I've only recently started looking at. My gf was Arvellor "Man"/"Rube" HENSLEE (Hood Co. 1894-1982). My grt. g.m. was Lucinda Jane MATLOCK (5/6 1850Ark-12/31 1937Hood Co); m'd Maxfield "Mac" HENSLEE 1869 Hood Co. Her father was a Wm. MATLOCK; mother Margaret PURSELLEY. In talking with an aunt Mrs. Wm. MATLOCK, sister to Judge DAVIS, was Laura DAVIS MATLOCK, a school teacher. She and Wm. lived at Fall Creek and then moved to Acton; they had no children. She does not, however, remember who this Wm's parents were. Can someone help me make the connection or otherwise be interested in MATLOCK family history--or the related family names? Thanks for any assistance. (Hood Co. Family Names: HENSLEE, LORENTZ, MATLOCK, PURSELLEY) Sandra Wortham <rwortham@flash.net> Springtown, TX USA - Tuesday, April 20, 1999 at 06:12:39 (PDT) ------------------------------------------------------
