Polk II, who made her home with daughter Deborah McCleary after her husband's death. Detroit Society for Genealogical Research Magazine, vol. 39, no. 3, Spring 1976, pp. 173-174---Wm. Polk married Margaret Taylor in PA. Wm. Polk died c1753. Margaret Taylor Polk lived for a good while after her husband's death, at least till after 1765, the writer (Harriette M. Wheeler of Grosse Point, MI.) refers here to having seen among Captain Charles Polk's private papers a receipt to him from her for a sum of money dated in the year 1765. The Lookout, a periodical of Chattanooga, TN., vol. 26, April 30, 1921, pgs. 284-285---Wm. Polk married Margaret Taylor in PA. wm. died "West of the Yadkin" 1753-1754; his wife survived him as mention is made of her in 1765. DAR Magazine, August 1915, pgs 76-79---Wm. and Margaret both died in NC. Our Heritage, a genealogy column from the Monroe, NC., Inquirer; issue of August 6, 1959 (IRN = P-180): It states "A certain James Taylor, of which is now Cumberland Co., Penn. His wife Hannah Williams Taylor was reputed to have had five sisters. Margaret married William Polk"---"there were frequent intermarriages between the early Polks, Reeses, Alexanders and Taylors." referring to Taylor sisters---"three sisters married Alexanders and an unnamed sister married a son of Rev. David Reese, Chas. Guillet Reese." In "Notable Southern Families," the Shelby line, page 329 , Zella Armstrong states that three of the Taylor sisters of Carlisle PA. married Alexanders, ancestors of the NC Alexanders. See page 328-329 for Adam Alexander marriage to Mary Shelby and their children; Adam Alexander was born 28 Sep 1728 (per this ref) and thus would have been a contemporary of Margaret and her husband William Polk. John Springs is also mentioned in this ref. as having married the oldest Taylor girl. Our Heritage, issue of Thursday, July 9, 1959 (IRN = P-180): Sussanna Polk, wife of Benjamin Alexander, was born in Cumberland County, Penna., and died in Mecklenburg Co., NC. in 1813." "Sussanna was the daughter of William (Wm., Robt.) Polk and Margaret Taylor, who, it appears, was the sister of James and Hannah (Williams) Taylor of what was Lancaster Co., PA. and later became Cumberland Co., in 1750. PA. Archives, vol. 30, pg. 458, shows James Taylor and also Hannah Taylor. PA. Archives, III series, vol. 24, Chester Co., 1733-1858, pg. 101 (land records), there shows a James Taylor and a John Taylor and in Philadelphia Co., there is a James Taylor.; page 664 of the above, there are many Taylor marriages, but none to a James or any others that seem to fit. Margaret Taylor Polk lived with her daughter Debora McCleary after the death of her (Margaret's) husband William according to "Bulletin," Spring 1994 Issue No. XXX, 4 (a publication of the Carolinas Genealogical Society, Monron, NC.). On page 96 of this issue, there is reference to a very old pamphlet which was used to compile information about three cemeteries in Mecklenburg County, one of which was the Polk Cemetery (sometimes referred to as the Polk/Alexander Cemetery). This pamphlet shows a grave of Polk, Margaret, died 1763. The directions to this cemetery are probably obsolete, but are repeated here for those interested: "Go Old Pineville Road beyond Negro school, Sterling High, turn to right into Old Speedway on water line from Shell Plant to Pineville." Bill Polk tried to find this cemetery in 1992, but was unsuccessful. Evidence suggests the cemetery is near the current location of the James K. Polk birth memorial in Pineville, NC. "Our Heritage" columns of June 8, 1961 and March 5, 1964 and Oct 8, 1959. Taylor and Swearingen and Shanklin family possible connections; good history of Taylor family, possibly the right one (James Taylor of Caroline Co., VA. b. 1616, near Carlisle, England, came to America 1635...more). An article in The Charlotte Observer, a newspaper of Charlotte NC., said article in the issue of 10 April 1955, and entitled "Society Marking Route To Historic Cemetery," reads as follows: "Members of the Mecklenburg Historical Association, under the direction of Dr. Calvin Rea and Mrs. George H. Petteway, are preparing signs leading to the historic Polk-Alexander Cemetery near Pineville. The cemetery was found a few years ago when bulldozers, clearing way for a water line, uncovered tombstones. Among the tombstones is that of Ezra Alexander, signer of the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence on May 20, 1775. There are approximately 20 legibly marked stones in the graveyard. Persons interested in seeing the old cemetery may take U. S. Highway 21 South leading into Pineville. One mile before entering the town they will note the marker pointing the way to the cemetery."The circa date of 1725 for the marriage of William Polk and Margaret Taylor is based on the approximate birth of their oldest child, William Polk III. Many published PA. church records as well as the published Pennsylvania Archives have been searched and as of early 1997, no marriage record has been located. Even some Maryland records have been searched, to no avail. Title: The Polks of North Carolina and Tennessee Author: Mrs. Frank M.

Polk Memorial Association, Columbia, TN., 1984, by Southern Historical Press, Easley, SC.Call Number: ISBN 0-89308-543-X Page: pg. 4 Text: referring to William Polk, son of William Polk, and grandson of Robert Pollok/Polk, he "married Margaret Taylor, who survived him." Title: Pedigree of the Pollok or Polk Family From Fulbert the Saxon (A. D. 1075) to the Present Time Author: Miss Mary Winder Garrett of Williamsburg, VA. Publication: The American Historical Magazine,The University Press, 208 N. College St., Nashville, TN. April 1896 issue begins the series and concludes with Vol. 4, 1899 Page: October 1897 issue, Vol. II, No. 4, pg. 383 Text: "William Polk, only son of John Polk, married twice---first wife Priscilla Roberts; second wife Margaret Taylor of Pennsylvania (Priscilla Roberts was sister of Edward Roberts, who married Nancy, the sister of William Polk." This is incorrect in that William Polk, son of William Polk, son of Robert Bruce Polk married Margaret Taylor. The writer confused William Polk, son of John Polk, son of Robert Bruce Polk, with William Polk, son of William Polk, son of Robert Bruce Polk. It was this latter William who married Margaret Taylor. A footnote at the bottom of page 383 shows the confusion about William Polk's wife. It reads, "From the information that I have been able to procure I would be inclined to think that Margaret Taylor was mother of all the children, she was certainly mother of the two last children, but the family claim descent from Priscilla Roberts in all eight branches." Later found records substantiated that William Polk, son of William Polk, son of Robert Bruce Polk, married Margaret Taylor and all the children were of this couple and that the William Polk who married Priscilla Roberts was the son of John Polk, (see Angellotti, pp. 2-3). 3. Note: William Harrison Polk, Polk Family and Kinsmen, (1912, by Bradley and Gilbert Inc. of Louisville, KY.), pp.191-194, Pages 191-192 show a letter dated 17 Jan 1849 from Bishop Leonidas Polk to James K . Polk, President, which states, in part, "William Polk.....married a Miss Taylor, who was the mother of our grandfathers. She was one of five sisters; one other of the five married a Mr Ruse and was the mother of Rev. David Ruse. The other three married Alexanders, who were the progenitors of all those of that name in Mecklenburg." On page 193, the letter continues and states, "Since beginning this letter I remembered having on my estate an old and highly intelligent negress, who belonged in early life to my grandfather, General Thomas Polk, and upon sending for her and questioning her, she promptly informed me that she well remembered our great grandmother, Miss Taylor, that was the wife of William Polk of Maryland. She was very often at her master's, General Thomas Polk's; was a small woman and lived to a great age. Upon asking if he had a daughter named Debora, she replied in the affirmative and added that she married Sam McLeary, confirming your impression. She also stated there were two other sisters: Margurette, who married David McRee, and Mary, who married John Barnett. She does not know whether the two former had children, but knows that the latter was the mother of Mrs. Smart, the old lady I have mentioned having written to, and also of Col. Jack Barnett, a very noted man in Mecklenburg, of his day, and father of Susan Barnett, whom you may remember having seen while you were at Chapel Hill at my father's in Raleigh. She also mentioned the names of four of her master's brothers, whom she often saw with their sisters, the ladies mentioned, at her master viz: Charles, James, William, and Ezekiel. She knew them all perfectly well, as servants are in the habit of knowing the members of their master's families. She states that she remembered perfectly well the night that master Sam. Polk was married to Miss Jinny Knox. As to whether there was a brother of her master's named John, she does not know, but 'the others she knew as well as she knows me." NOTE: No brother by the name of James has surfaced in any writings, genealogies or documents; perhaps the lady was mistaken in this part of her recollection and actually meant John, the only missing male sibling in her recollection of the children of William and Margaret (Taylor) Polk. Also, the servant lady mentions a daughter Mary who married John Barnett. Mary was not the daughter of William and Margaret Taylor Polk. Mary was the daughter of Margaret Polk and Robert McRea and thus was the granddaughter of William and Margaret Taylor Polk. This Mary did marry a Barnett. Susan Smart was the eldest child of Susan Barnett, daughter of Margaret Polk and Robert McRea. It was Susan McRea who married John Barnett and their daughter Susan Barnett married Mr. Smart.

Polk II, who made her home with her dau. Debora McLeary after her husband's death)." Also, "In Memory of Deborah McCleary Who died Sept. 21, 1811 Age 78 yrs. .. "The following cemetery records taken from the pamphlet EARLY FAMILY BURIAL GROUNDS OF MECKLENBURG COUNTY NC." Obviously, there is a discrepancy in the above for the death year of Margaret Polk. Since the tombstone date is 1763, that date is being accepted as correct, rather than 1765. Title: Col'nl Tom Polk First Owner of Polk Mountain Publication: Monroe Journal, 19 Dec 1952 (Monroe, Union Co., NC.) Text: from the accompaning article by Mrs. Bonnie Austin Petteway: "Col. Thomas Polk, owner of Polk Mountain in Union County in the late 1780's and early 1800's was the son of Capt. Wm. Polk III and his first wife (unknown), some say she was a Spratt, but this has not been definitely established as yet. Capt. Wm. Polk III was the eldest son of Wm. Polk II and Margaret Taylor of Carlisle PA., who came South in 1750, along with the Spratts, settling in Mecklenburg County, not too far from what is now Pineville." Source: Bill Polk) Having taken a trip to Pineville, NC in Mecklenburg Co., NC this last March, and having visited the James K. Polk History Center, I found that the old Polk Cemetery had been vandalized and the headstones were moved to the James Knox Polk Historical Center. Some have been placed in a warehouse for repair. The headstone of Margaret Taylor Polk is one of those so broken up that it is in need of repair. The headstone of her daughter Deborah McCleary is still in good shape and is at the Historic Center. The headstone of President Polk's grandmother Maria Wilson Polk is also there along with a number of other Polk and Alexander headstones. They are laid out in an area where they may be photographed.

Buchanan, however, gave the purchasers no deed to the property, since he had not then received a patent for it, nor was the patent issued until Dec 23 1779, after Buchanan had died. In the meantime both Baker and Shelby themselves died and it was not until 1796 that the former's heirs got title to his half of the property and 2 Nov 1799 that Evan Shelby's heirs were given a deed to his half, these two deeds being made out by the exc's of William Preston, dec'd (for Shelby, see Washington Co, VA deed book #2 p223) William Preston was the exc for John Buchanan.

| 1169 | CEAWLIN (d. 593) was King of Wessex, according to the Anglo -Saxon Chronicle, whose chronology however is not reliable for this period, from 560 to 593. The annals in the Chronicle relating to his career are cast in a tone which suggests that they may derive from a lost Old English epic poem. For what they are worth, they conjure up a Germanic warlord of the sort celebrated in the surviving epic Beowulf. They show Ceawlin engaged in warfare with his neighbors both Anglo-Saxon and British, winning battles as at Dyrham in 577, capturing towns such as Bath, acquiring booty and perishing probably by violence. Bede allotted him an imperium or overlord-ship like that attributed to Aelle of Sussex: whatever this may have meant to Bede, to us Ceawlin's imperium is as opaque as Aelle's. It is possible that Ceawlin was responsible for the construction of some or all of the great earthwork known as Wansdyke. If this were so, he might have had a greater degree of ordered power at his disposal than the bloody record of the Cbronicle suggests. Ceawlin, son of Cynric, undertook the government of the West Saxons, 560, and reigned thirty winters. "In 568, Ethelbert came to the kingdom of Kent and was Defeated. He Defeated three other British Kings (Conmail, Condidan and Farinmail) at Dyrham (577), 5 miles north of Bath which he captured with Circencester and Glouchester. In his day the holy Pope Gregory sent us baptism. And Columba, the mass -priest, came to the Picts . . . 591. This year there was a great slaughter of Britons at Wanborough; Ceawlin was driven from his kingdom . . . 593. This year died Ceawlin."

On Thursday, December 1, 1853, Charles married Miriam Addis from Oconee County, South Carolina. Miriam was born on Saturday, November 29, 1828 and passed away on Monday, April 6, 1903.

| 1187 | Children and marriages listed according to Margaret Lester Hill, "Ball Families of Virginia's Northern Neck An outline", 1990. Joseph and Esther's marriage is recorded Lancaster Co., Virginia. May 1713-2 Sep 1713. Richmond VA Wills, p. 148. Will of William Goodridge of North Farnham Parish. Wife Thomasin; son William all land in Lancaster Co. which I bought of Richard Alderson and John [Buxton]; other children Moses and Elizabeth; desires Mr. Rawleigh Chinn to have the care of the three children until age 21. Ex: Friend Rawleigh Chinn. Wits: None given, but proven by the oaths of Dorothy and Thomas Durham. Inv. of William Goodridge (or Guttridge) 4 Nov 1713 by Rawleigh Chinn, administrator. p. 155. 1741- Rawleigh Chinn dies. The estate is settled and will recorded in March 12th through July and August 0f 1741-42 in Lancaster Co., VA Legatees: Sons; Joseph (land in Prince William County)Thomas; Chichester (land in Richmond and King George counties); Rawleigh; daughter Ann Sherman; Gr. son Rawleigh Sherman, (land in Prince William Co.) godson, Charles, son of Margaret Downman; Christopher and Elijah sons of sd Margaret Downman; Celia Nichols, daughter of Elizabeth Nichols; Joseph Durham, Dominick Newgent, Bryan Stott, Easter Chinn, and Wm. Glascock. Extr. Son Rawleigh Chinn. [Lancaster Co., W.B. 13, p. 253] Rawleigh Chinn seems to have somewhat been a scallawag. He marries to Esther Ball and has five children by her. She is the half sister to Mary Ball, the mother of our most illustrious 1st President of the United States, George Washington. Rumours are abundent that even with such a connection, Rawleigh had an affair while in London. This may have had something to do with the eventually desolution of this marriage. He apparently takes up with Margaret Ball Downman, the 1st cousin to Esther, and has three sons out of wedlock with her in Richmond Co., VA. In the Will of Rawleigh Chinn, they are supposedly called "godsons"; and "sons" in the will of Margaret (Ball) Downman. A certificate of birth in Richmond County confirms that Rawleigh Chinn was the father. [Dally Duggan Washington records, GenForum 1 Sep 1999] Other Sources: 1.

| 1192 | Chose to spell his name "Matlock". Notes for WILLIAM F. MATLOCK: In 1860 this family is living in Pennington Township, Bradley County, Arkansas. Battle W. is living with them. In 1870 this family is living in Red Land Township, Bradley County, Arkansas. Goodspeed Biographies William F. Matlock, Sr., is a member of the well-known mercantile establishment of Matlock & Haskins, which has done and is doing so much for the advancement of New Edinburg, and vicinity. Mr. Matlock is a Georgian, whose birth occurred in Coweta County, February 23, 1828, and is a son of J. R. and Lucinda (Mayfield) Mattock,... their union eight sons and seven daughters, of whom William F. Mattock was the fifth child. His school days were spent in Bradley County, Ark., and when twenty-two years of age he commenced to farm for himself near where he now does business. In 1866 he began selling merchandise at his present stand, being the first man to go into business at this point, but at the end of two years he gave up this work, and again turned his attention to farming, and was a successful tiller of tire soil until 1877. Since that time he has devoted his time and attention to merchandising, and besides his mercantile establishment he is the owner of 360 acres of land, a large portion of which is under cultivation. In 1853 he was married to Mrs. Amelia M. Tolefree, a daughter of David Meriwether. She was born in Jasper County, Ga., April 29, 1822, and was the widow of Robert Tolefree. Her union with Air. Matlock has resulted in the birth of the following children: Rebecca M. (wife of T. M. Boyd, a farmer, of Cleveland County), Anna D. (who also married a farmer of the county), and Elma S. Those deceased are: David M., and Carrie A. (who was the wife of W . H. Harrison, her death occurring in 1882). Mr. and Mrs. Matlock are members of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, and he is a Royal Arch Mason, and a Democrat, politically. Jack H. Marcus A. Matlock did much research on his branch of the family. In his notes he stated: "it will be noted that all the names in the Bible record were written Medlock and I have used the same spelling in the cornments before. However, all the sons of John R. Medlock (grandfather of Marcus A. whom. I knew spelled the narne Matlock, and also all their children followed the latter spelling. It is my information that William Medlock one of older sons, is responsible for the change in spelling in our family. He was the most prosperous of the sons of John R. Medlock in his day, owned some slaves, a mill, and was one of the first to establish a mercantile business in the village in South Arkansas known as New Edinburg. From some source in one of his trading trips to New Orleans to market cotton and merchandise, he received information that convinced him that the correct spelling of the name should be Matlock so he changed, and all his brothers followed him in the change. Thereafter all this branch of the family spelled its name Matlock, and most of them moved further west into Texas seeking greener pastures. (Note to Mrs. Leonard and Mrs. Jack H. Matlock - I found Miles Jefferson in 1880 Wise Co., Tx.) | Medlock, William F. (I8348)

He was born October 1868 in Butler County, Kentucky, and died November 15, 1955 in Grayson County, Kentucky. He is buried in the Shain-Deweese Cemetery. He was married in 1886 to Louisiana Osbin, in Grayson County. The family story goes that he felt called to be a Baptist preacher, but that his wife would not allow him to follow that calling. My grandmother, his daughter, said that, when he tried to pray before a meal, Granny Daugherty would simply go ahead and start passing the food and eating. | Daugherty, Austin Columbus (I7687)
