Rebecca J. Gatling was the widow of Thomas Barnes Gatling of Jackson (District 9 in the 1860 census), Northampton County, North Carolina. She had a daughter named Rebecca M. Peebles who married a John Turner (J.T.) Peebles on Dec. 2, 1856. Rebecca J. Gatling lived with her daughter and son-in-law in 1860. You can find them listed in the 1860 Census records under District 9 in Northampton County, NC under the initials: R J Gatling, R M Peebles, J T Peebles, etc. You can also find Rebecca J.

Re: Any Gatlings from Jackson or Ahoskie, N.C.area?

tricks720 — 2008-09-08 19:20:52Z

Well, my Dads family is from Ahoskie, NC. His name is Chester Gatling and his parents are named Tommie and Thelma (Outlaw) Gatling. I've always been told that we were decendants of the Richard J Gatling (inventor of the Gatling gun), but I have not found any proof of that. I believe that the real story is that my great grandfather used to be a slave of the Gatling's and when slavery was abolished, he took the Gatling last name.

Descendants of Richard Jordan Gatling

BlueNorma — 2007-09-18 21:32:30Z

Hi--I have a question about Richard Jordan Gatling and his wife. I'm told that my grandmother is a descendants of them, but I have not been able to confirm that. I do have ancestors from North Carolina that I am currently researching, but I don't have much of anything in the way of location/information/etc. I have two surnames: Garret (or Garrett) and Austin. Is there a published list of descendants for Richard and Jemima Gatling? Maybe I could compare that way.

Gatling Jr. (Junior), Margaret, Maggie, Dorothy, and Rudolph. I am the granddaughter of Maggie Passmore nee Gatling.

Re: Gatlin and Gatling and other spellings of our surnames

dotsicle5 — 2004-12-28 00:33:01Z

Mary, this gives me some insight as to ways of finding my Gatlin(g)s. Unfortunately, "my" James Gatlin married the granddaughter of a Gardner, the family of whom had changed the spelling from GARNER........ James and Elizabeth Gatlin were born in NC, went to TN and then to AR. They were in TN in 1843 according to the will of Elizabeth's grandfather James Gardner. They were in Arkansas and had 4 sons in 1850, born in TN, and their name was spelled Gatlin. There is nothing in any further census on them. It's possible the spelling had been changed thereafter. Anyone with info on James Gatlin(g) and Elizabeth Latham, sons Jackson-Francis- Andrew- William?

I know at some point they left NC and moved to Arkansas. I was told I am part of the Briggs Gatling family, but I am not sure. I know that there is also a connection to Sloan, my aunts are members of the DAR. If anyone has any information please let me know. shanagatling@yahoo.com

Any information about Margaret Polly Gatling's illegitimate son John Gatling is needed. Any additional information about Rev William James Gatling and his first wife Mary Cowper and their children would also be valuable.
