Pat,
Joseph H. Gatton of Wilson Co., TN b. 1788 Iredell Co.,NC was a son of Azariah Gatton b. abt. 1750 Prince Georges Co., MD - Azariah d. and left a will in 1807 in Iredell Co.,NC naming his children. It took a while to settle his estate and by 1821 Joseph H. Gatton now of Wilson Co., TN filed a power of Atty to help settle his father's estate and recover his portion. This court record found in the deed records of Iredell Co., NC (Grantor Book O, pg. 510) When the settlement was finally made and the land sold, it named all the heirs and is found in Iredell Co. Deeds - Grantee BK Q, pg. 120.
The wife of Joseph H. Gatton - general opinion seems to be Elizabeth Dyson, dau of Barton Dyson, although in the book "People of Wilson Co.,TN 1800-1899" by Partlow, pg. 40, Henry HASS names his wife & children, one being Elizabeth Gatton. Written 24 May 1866.Joseph H. Gatton wrote his will 28 May 1856 and it was probated in Oct 31, 1856. In it he named his wife Elizabeth, ch: Wm.A, Hiram, Joseph W., Elviry Chapman, Elizabeth Ann McKee, Cynthia Moore (dec'd) children (not named).
I'm working on proving Azariah's dau Sarah "Sally" Ann Gatton m. bef. 1800 to James Ratledge in Iredell Co. They moved to Greene Co., TN and are on the 1850 census there.
Glad to share more.
