When did the name change to “lock”.It did not change to lock.It changed from lock.
William Matlack, born 1648, was actually born William Matlock.He was baptized in June of 1650 in Cropwell Bishop.His parents were George MATLOCK and Jane HALL.Early records in New Jersey show both the MATLOCK and MATLACK spelling but over time William and his children all used the MATLACK spelling.MATLOCK was, and still is, a name common in Virginia and the south.Several of William Matlack’s descendants moved south and adopted the MATLOCK spelling.
I would like to know a little about your MATLACK/ MATLOCK ancestor.Name, dates, where they lived.My family never left New Jersey.I live about 3 miles from the 100 acres William MATLACK purchased in 1684.
