two.  He enlisted in Virginia.  He lost part of his hand by accident with a 
butcher knife in the army.  He is now a redsident ?Trewitt County, Alabama.  He 
has no family living with him.  (I don't understand Tennessee and Alabama both

is sixty nine years of age and born in Virginia, a daughter of John 
Mattock/Matlock, who moved to South Carolina, ?Grinville District where she was 
brought up and intermarried with Garrott Rutledge there in 1791, and Garrott 
Rutledge died in 1795.  Then the same Mary Rutledge again married the second
