Life

Matilda Holstun was born on 25 October 1818 in South Carolina, according to the FamilySearch tree, which gives no source for the date and records no parents; her surname is written Holstun, Holstine, Houlstain and Halstin in the records.1 On 5 July 1838, as Matilda Houlstain, she married Michael J. Carlisle, otherwise Michael Andrew Jackson Carlile, a son of Edmund Carlile and Elizabeth Ann Whatley, in Chambers County, Alabama.2 A document attached to her profile is headed "Attest of the negroes belonging to the Estate of Wm Holstein Senr deceased, willed to Dolly Holstein, widow," a list of the people enslaved by a William Holstein Sr. and left by his will to his widow.3 Inference The document's link to Matilda is not stated, but her children William Holstun Carlisle and Dorothy "Dolly" Carlisle bear the names William and Dolly, which suggests that William and Dolly Holstein were her parents; the relationship needs a record that states it.3 The tree names eleven children, born between 1839 and 1876, the last two of whom are probably grandchildren.4 The federal censuses of 1850 and 1860 listed her in her husband's household in Chambers County, and the census of 1870 in Election Precinct 2 of Choctaw County, Alabama.5 Her husband died at Brundidge, Pike County, on 13 September 1898, and in that year the index to Indian Wars pension files records an entry for Michael A. J. Carlisle that names her, most probably her application for a widow's pension.6 She died at Milltown, Chambers County, on 17 July 1899 and was buried in that county, according to the tree and the Find a Grave index.7 The death record of her son Michael Wade Carlisle, in 1934, names his mother as Matilda Halstin.8
