"Stephen Matlock died October 28,1853, leaving a large estate, which took about 6 years to settle.Co-executors were his son Stephen Matlock and his daughter, Florida's husband, Elza Tillman.Evidently, his eldest son, John,was disinheritedfor he was not listed as one of 7 heirs who drew lots out of a hat to decide who would inherit 7 slaves for each heir from the 47 slaves in the estate in 1854.About 1856 or 57 the disinherited son, John, went to court to challenge the way the executors were administering the estate.Later, court records reveal that Stephen Matlock and Elza Tillman, as executors had to pay $100.00 in legal fees for this law suit.I have no other information on this John Matlock and could not find him on the GA Censuses."The information concerning Stephens children came "from the 1850 Montgomery Co. GA Census, the 1860 San Augustine Co, TX Census, the 1870 Shelby Co. Census and the book, Our Dead: Shelby County, Texas 1836-1964 by J. B. Sanders."From Lynn Meador Hall of Huston Email 18 Dec 2000

Subject: [MATLOCK-L] Family of Stephen Matlock
Thanks Joe, for bringing up my gggrandfather, Stephen Matlock of Orangeburg County,SC and Tattnall County, GA.
Is anyone else out there researching this family.?
I still have not been able to link them into an earlier family.Stephen could have been the son of the earlier Stephen Matlock who lived on Grannies's Quarter Creek north of Camden, SC just before the Revolutionary War battle of Camden.A William Matlock lived nearby and may have been his brother.
In Orangeburg, the younger Stephen bought land in Liberty County, GA with John Duke.Liberty County was just east of Stephen's plantation,which he developed later in Tattnall County.He was one of the largest land owners in the county and owned many slaves.Extensive records of the settling of his estate are available at the Tattnall County Courthouse.It took seven years to finish settling Stephen's estate.
I would greatly appreciate any information about this family that anyone might have.
