Additional Comments: Book P, Marion County Deeds. Caroline Melton was Mathew Melton's second wife. She was Caroline Weaver, they married 28 March 1869, Marion County, GA (she was born 27 April 1838, GA, died April 12, 1927, Marion County GA). She is buried at Union Baptist Church Cemetery along with Mathew, his first wife and Caroline's mother Nellie Weaver (1815-1880). Caroline married second to a Worthen. Mathew died 7 May 1897, with no probate that I have found. This deed must have been in the way of his settlement of estate before his death.
