Morgan and Mattie Roper: My Great-Great Grandparents

When I was at home a couple of summers ago, I went to the probate office and did some research on my great-great grandparents. I found some interesting stuff. I saw a document where after they had married, Mattie Roper made Morgan pay her--in buggys, horses and other goods, for a loan or something she had given him before their marriage. You go girl. THey say that Mattie Roper died one evening while she and morgan were having a dispute. They were in the bed and Morgan was fussing. She supposedly got up to go to the slopjar and she said, "Morgan, if you don't stop yelling, you are going to make my heart over flow." She got up and went and fell over dead.
