THE FAMILY LINE of DESCENDANTS of H G MATKINS, BORN 1831 IN SC
SUMMARY
H G Matkins was born about 1831 in South Carolina. His wife was named
Julia. Julia was born about 1840 in Alabama.
H G Matkins may have been in the Civil War. Peal Matkins may have been H
G Matkins first child, born in 1867 in Alabama. My theory is that H G married
Julia after the Civil War in 1866. H G might have been a relative (perhaps a
son) of Ezekiel Matkin from South Carolina; Ezekiel migrated with his family
to Alabama.
H G and Julia Matkins lived in Alabama until after 1871 or 4 years after
the birth of the son, Peal. Their son, John, was born in 1871 in Alabama. In
1874, they had a daughter, Mary, born in Mississippi.
In 1880, this family was living in Good Hope, Leak County, Mississippi
[1]. H G was age 49 and Julia was 40. Their children's ages were: Peal, age
13; John, age 9; and Mary, age 6.

An A G Matkins, his wife, Julia, and three children were living in Leak
County, Mississippi, in 1880 [2]. This record shows that A G was age 49 (born

born in Alabama. Their children were listed as: Peal Matkins, age 13 (born
about 1867 in Alabama); John Matkins, age 9 (born about 1871 in Alabama); and
