John I. Matlock
The entire life of John I. Matlock has
been spent upon the farm, one and a half
miles from
Holley,
where he was born June 20, 1858. His
father, William, who was born in
Missouri,
contracted the
gold fever in 1849, and as a young man
joined a party bound for the mines of
California. He was
fairly successful,
and with his little hoard came to Oregon
in 1851,
locating on the farm of three
hundred and
twenty acres now occupied by his son. He
married
Nancy Shields, member of an
early family
here, and
reared a family of ten children, four
sons
and six daughters. He naturally
suffered from the
depredations of
the Indians in the early
days, and as
naturally joined the defense instituted
for the
protection of the life
and property
of the settlers, serving in
the war for several months. His death
occurred in 1875, at the age
of
forty-nine years, and nine of his
children are living at the present
time.
These are: Amanda,
the wife of Gideon Hodson; Evaline, wife of Timothy Riggs;
John I.; A.J., near
Holley; Artilla,
the
wife of Henry H.
Chance; William T.; Mary J., wife of
Andrew Shanks; and Eliza P.
When his
father died John I. Matlock was
seventeen years old, and as the oldest
son in the family the
management of the
farm fell upon his shoulders. His first
wife, Annie (Johnson) Matlock died in
1887,
leaving one child, Minnie, now living in
Albany. For a second wife he married,
October 12,
1891, Olive
Pendleton, who
is the mother of four children: Henry;
Ray, deceased; Bryan,
deceased; and Vina.
Mr.
Matlock still owns one hundred and sixty
acres of the original claim,
and is
engaged in stock-raising
and
general farming. He is a member and
overseer of the Grange,
and is connected
with the Christian
Church. source -
