While the English origins
of the MATTHEWS are uncertain, it is probable that he may be descended from one
of the numerous MATTHEWS families in the counties of
Nuncupative Will of RALPH
MATTHEWS
Registered
An account of what RALPH
MATTHEWS gave his three children before his departure to each: one bed and
bedstead, to each six pewter dishes, to each one [an] Iron pot, to each one [a]
frying pan, to each one a dozen of spoons, to each two por-ringers?, to one a
skinner, to the next a flesh fork, and the other a ladle, and that had the lade
to give her one salt tiller to equalize the skinner and flesh fork, and this he
did desire. Should be at his wife's disposing till they come of age to ____ it
themselves, furthermore he did desire that Col. Smith or his sonne Arthur Smith
to take some care that this which he gave his children may not be imbezled and
for the children be defrauded of it, and furthermore that his wife should have
the remainder herself paying his debts out of it. This RALPH MATTHEWS desired
as we have set our hands and hereunto to take notice of as to be his Will. Col
Smith being present at that time, it being some two days before his death.

HUGH MATTHEWS first appears
in the records of Isle of Wight County, Virginia on March 16, 1715, when he and
his wife MARTHA conveyed 50 acres on branches of Blackwater River to JOHN
JOHNSON for 500 pounds tobacco, it being land left to MARTHA MATTHEWS by her
father JOHN JOHNSON's will.
HUGH MATTHEWS patented 100
acres on the South side of the Nottoway River adjoining the Nottoway Indians on
March 23, 1715 for the importation of Timothy Times and his wife Elizabeth
Times
On March 24, 1725, he
obtained another patent of 20 acres on both sides of Angelica Swamp in Isle of
Wight County for the sum of 5 shillings.
HUGH MATTHEWS was appointed
an appraiser of the estate of Henry Townsend in an order dated Jan. 25,
1728/29. The appraisal was returned to court by MATTHEWS, Thomas Pursell,and
William Blake for registry on Jan. 27, 1728.
HUGH MATTHEWS did not have
any further land transactions until July 17, 1738, when he sold a water mill
and land of unspecified acreage on Angelica Swamp for 5 shillings to James
Ridley. Witnessed by son-in-law Gilbert Mac Kenny and John Brewer, the deed was
also signed by MARTHA MATTHEWS
HUGH MATTHEWS wrote his
will in Southampton County, Virginia [officially formed in 1749] on November 7,
1747, witnessed by Daniel Sebree, Thomas Pursell, and George Stephens(on). It
would appear that his wife MARTHA had predeceased him, for his will left
legacies to his then wife ANN MATTHEWS.
The lengthy will of HUGH
MATTHEWS, which makes reference to four sons, five daughters, five grandsons,
and at least three deceased children, was submitted for probate on September
12, 1751.
Newitt Drew, Timothy Thorp,
and James Jones appraised HUGH MATTHEW's estate at 72 pounds, 11 shillings, and
5 pence in an inventory dated Oct. 13, 1751.12 On Feb. 3, 1753, James Ridley,
Timothy Thorp, and James Jones examined the estate and returned an account
showing expenses of 39 pounds, 9 shillings, and 4 pence. Their account was returned
to court for registry on March 8, 1753.13 Issue:
1. RALPH MATTHEWS. He
apparently died intestate before Nov. 7, 1747 in Isle of Wight County, VA. His
son RALPH MATTHEWS received a legacy of land on Angelica Swamp in the will of
HUGH MATTHEWS.
2. JOHN MATTHEWS. He died
prior to Aug. 27, 1739, when his widow MARTHA MATTHEWS returned an appraisal of
his estate into Isle of Wight County Court [Isle of Wight Co., VA Will Book 4,
p. 237].
3. JOSEPH MATTHEWS. He was
born about 1710-15, and married ELIZABETH, perhaps the daughter of JOHN
STEVENSON and CATHERINE WIGGS. On Oct. 15, 1753, he sold 150 acres on the South
side of Three Creeks to John Brewer [Southampton County, VA Deed Book 2, p. 7].
He and his family were residing in Edgecombe Co., NC prior to July 13, 1764,
when he conveyed two tracts of 275 acres and 691 acres on the North side of
Swift Creek to Isaac Hilliard [Edgecombe Co., NC Deed Book C, pp. 296, 297]. He
removed to old Cumberland County (now Harnett County) after 1771. His will was
probated in Cumberland County in January, 1791.
4. WILLIAM MATTHEWS. He is
probably the WILLIAM MATTHEWS, who with wife ELIZABETH sold 200 acres in
Edgecombe Co., NC to James
5. EDWARD MATTHEWS. He died
in Southampton County, VA prior to Aug. 12, 1762, when an account of estate was
returned to Southampton County Court [Southampton County Will Book 1, p. 513].
6. BENJAMIN MATTHEWS. He
apparently migrated to Edgecombe County, NC with his brothers JOSEPH and
WILLIAM. He bought 200 acres on the North side of Swift Creek in Edgecombe
County, NC on Aug. 19, 1746 [Edgecombe Co., NC Deed Book 3, p. 7]. He died
intestate prior to September Court, 1762, when his daughter PHEBE MATTHEWS was
granted administration of his
estate. His estate was sold
Oct. 9, 1762, and account of sale was returned to court in January Court, 1763
[Watson, "Estate Records of Edgecombe Co., NC," Durham, NC: Seeman
Printery, Inc., 1970, p. 176].
7. [Daughter] MATTHEWS. She
married SOLOMON STEVENSON, Sr., and apparently had died prior to Nov. 7, 1747.
Her son "SOLOMON STEPHENSON, Jr." was bequeathed land on James Branch
in the will of HUGH MATTHEWS.
8. MARY MATTHEWS. She
married _____ THORP. No Data.
9. SARAH MATTHEWS. She
married first GILBERT MAC KENNY, whose estate was appraised by Timothy Thorpe,
Henry Rose, and James Jones, and returned by SARAH MAC KENNY on July 10, 1746
[Isle of Wight Co., VA Will Book 5,p.26]. It is highly probable that she
married secondly, SOLOMON STEVENSON, Sr. (her deceased sister's husband) prior
to August 31, 1750 [Southampton
Co., VA Will Book 1, p.
109].
10. MARTHA MATTHEWS. She
married SOLOMON NEWSOM, son of Thomas Newsom
and Elizabeth (Crafford)

Wight County, VA on April 22, 1746. They removed to Brunswick Co., VA as early
as 1752, and to Wilkes Co., Georgia by 1777. An inventory of his estate was
taken in Wilkes County, Georgia on Dec. 4, 1795 ["The Newsom Family"
by B. C. Holtzclaw, in "Genealogies of Virginia Families," Volume 4, p.
518].
11. HESTER MATTHEWS. She
married WILLIAM JOHNSTON, son of
County, VA. They sold James
Porch 50 acres on Gum Branch and George's Branch in Southampton Co., VA on May

In Reply to: Mat(t)hews of
North Carolina by John Matthews of 2800
Mat(t)hews, Mat(t)hews,
Mat(t)his of Gates County, NC all likely descended from Hugh Mathews of
Southampton County, Va. and possibly from his wife Martha Johnson (believed to
have been a great grandaughter of Ancient Planter and John Johnson of
Jamestown.) Hugh Mathews believed to have been son of the Ralph Mathews who was
transported to Westmoreland County, Va. by Wm Drummond who received land grant
in Westmoreland County, Va. in 1658. Hugh Mathews purchased 850 acres in Isle
of Wight County, Va. on credit from William Cooke in 1667. In 1671, William
Cook, being owed money (or tobacco) was granted and "extent" against
the lands of Hugh Mathews in Isle of Wight County, Va. no other estate of Hugh
mathews being found there. In 1675 Hugh mathews was still in Westmoreland
county as he was listed as a judgement debtor there of Rotterdam, Holland
creditors represented in Virginia by agent Alexander Dolaphanie. In 1679, Col.
Arthur Smith of Isle of Wight County, Va. who was possibly a relative or in-law
of Ralph Mathews was granted land in Isle of Wight county for the transport of
numerous persons there, including Ra.& Hugh Mathews. Ralph Mathews died in
Isle of Wight Co, Va. 1687 leaving a widow Alice. His nuncupative will, made in
the presece of Col. Arthur Smith, who may have been a relative of he or his
wife, asked Col. Smith or his son Arthur to oversee Ralph's three unnamed,
underage children, two of whom were surely named Edmund and Ezekiel. Hugh
Mathews (presumably an older son of Ralph Mathews) died in Southampton County,
Va. which was formed from Isle of Wight in 1747, sometime between the date of
his 1747 will and his 1750 inventory date. He was still married to wife Martha
Johnson as late as 1730, but she apparently died before him and he remarried
Ann---? who was his co-executor. Hugh Mathews had sons named John, Ralph,
Joseph, Edward,
The Johnsons and Johnstons
of Corrowaugh in Isle of Wight County by Eddis Johnson, 1979.In the book it
states that Hugh was believed to be a widower when he married Martha. Presumably the son of Ralph and Alice
Matthews.

In Reply to: Re:
Hi, I have this information
on Martha Johnson. Martha Johnson, most likely the daughter of John Johnson,
the elder, and first wife Mary, was born in Isle of Wight County, Virginia
about 1688. Her father, in his will made in Isle of Wight County on January 7,
1703/04, and probated on August 9, 1707, bequeathed "to my daughter
Martha, 50 acres of land, half the household goods at Blackwater, and one shilling
in lieu of any part in her stepmother's estate." By 1715, she had married
On March 18, 1715/16, Hugh
Mathis and Martha Mathis of the Upper Parish deeded to John Johnson of the
Lower Parish for 500 pounds of tobacco, 50 acres on the branch of Blackwater
adjoining said John Johnson that had been left to said Martha in her father
John Johnson's will dated January 7, 1703/04; witnessed by Henry Sanders,
Arthur Smith, and John Watts. Martha predeceased her husband, Hugh, after which
he married Ann (?).

In Reply to: Re: Mat(t)hews
of North Carolina by Mary Faith Labor Matthews
Re: John Mathews. Again,
obviously one of the older sons of Hugh Mathews. John Mathews had a son named
William who I believe came to be referred to as William Mathias in Gates
County, N.C. Volume 3, No.1, p.126 of Hathaways Register mentions William
Mathews and John Mathews in Gates County, N.C. as witnesses to a conveyence of
real estate from
Aaron (Mathews?) to Amos
Blanchard on Nov. 10, 1736. Hugh Mathews son John Mathews also had another son
besides his son William. The other one was named Jonas. Hugh Mathews 1747 will,
recorded in Southampton County, Va. mentioned him as Jonas, son of John Mathews
(deceased). John "Mathias" will was recorded in Perquimans County,
N.C. in April 1748 mentioning his son William and a wife Elizabeth. William
"Mathias" died testate in Gates County in 1798. (I believe his
executor was Kedar Ballard, who was an officer in the 3d N.C. Regiment during
the Revolutionary War.) This William "Mathias" who died in 1798 also
had a son named William.
Thats about all I know
about Ralph and John, sons of Hugh Mathews and their descendants. I was very
interested to read that your husband is descended from Hugh Mathews son and
co-executor Joseph, who I know settled on Swift creek in what was at that time
Edgecombe County but may be Nash County today. I'm descended from Hughs son
William Mathews who got embroiled in a legal wrangle in the Southampton Courts
with Hughs last wife and co-executor Ann Matthews. He apparently illegally held
on to some assets that he was supposed to have surrendered after his fathers
death. She sued him and he immediately absconded to North Carolina, purchasing
200 acres on the S. side of Fishing Creek in Edgecombe County in 1753. Hughs
son

Notes for WILLIAM MATTHEWS:
The chain bearer named
William had grown to maturity and sold all of his own Edgecombe County land by
1771. He moved first to nearby Bute County (present day Warren and Franklin
Counties) and after that was awarded a land entry in Duplin County in 1779.
It is absolutely clear that
the William Mathews who entered the 250 acres in Duplin in 1779 was the same
man as the NC Continental soldier of that name who was either killed in action
or died in the line of duty at some time during the war.....

*************************************************************************************
From a
I haven't found my
husband's Jacob Matthews in 1830. He is
no longer in NC
but is very likely in Georgia since he married Lurany
JOHNS in
North
Georgia in 1833 and their
oldest son Simon Matthews was born in North GA
in
1834. Lurany is a seriously high brick wall and I
ended up researching
JPHNSON MATTHEWS because in
1830, he is in Houston Co, GA and is a close
neighbor to Daniel JOHNS
with a daughter in the right age to possibly be
Lurany. Also , a few pages away is William Green
Johns who is probably a
son of Daniel and Jacob and
Lurany named a son William Green. SO---I
researched cousin Johnson
Matthews in hopes of him leading me to Jacob---he
didn't but here's what I
have on Johnson.

Notes for JACOB MATTHEWS III:
Jacob Jr. and Calvin, went
to Alabama between 1832-1835 (birthdates of
children on census
records), about the same time as members of the Lazarus
Matthews family.
The following data supports
these assumptions:
1. The Archibald Sullivan Record
Book (son-in-law of Joseph Lazarus
Matthews) states that
Calvin Matthews, Alabama, was a cousin of Joseph
Lazarus Matthews. That is all of the information given. There is a Calvin
Matthews born in North
Carolina that is the head of a household in the 1850
Census of Alabama.
2. Jacob Matthews Jr.
married Rebecca Gilbert in Cumberland County 29 Feb.
1820.
3. Starting in 1823, some
of the Jacob and Dorcas Matthews family show up in
the records of Johnston
County where some of the children resided (
Zada, Jacob Jr.)
In the Johnston County Court Records, Book 12,
#8 on 4 February 1823
Phillip Johnson (uncle of
Joseph Lazarus according to Arch. Sullivan Record
Book) sold land to Jacob
Matthews Jr. which was proven by the oath of Jacob
Matthews Sr. Also Richard Byrd sold land to Jacob Jr.
4. The 1830 Census of
Johnston County page 109 shows:
Jacob Matthews family: Male
(30-40 years); Female (40-50); 2 males (5-10); 1
male (under 5); female
(90-100); female (5-10) and female (under 5). [note
that Jacob's wife is older
that he is, as Rebecca is older than Jacob below]
Right below his family is
the
(30-40); male (5-10); male
(under 5); 2 females (5-10); and female (under
5).
Right below them is the Lazarus
Matthews family: Male (50-60); Female
(40-50); male (20-30);
female (20-30); 2 males (15-20); male (10-15); male
(under 5); female (under
5).

Smithey. Isaac "Ica" Matthews, also had a
daughter Smitha or Smithey.
Calvin has a daughter,
Smitha or Smithey. Calvin also named his
oldest
daughter, Darcas or Dorcas
after his mother? Jacob and Rebecca
possibly
named a child Gilbert after
her maiden name?
Per Mark Valsame
It's interesting that Jacob
Matthews (md. Rebecca Gilbert) had 2 sons born between 1820-1825 according to
the 1830 Johnston County census, had removed to Alabama by 1835 (according to
the census data of his children in 1850), and both of these criteria agree with
traditions concerning James Henderson Matthews' background. He allegedly came to North Carolina from
"Alabama" (according to traditions related by his son, Mr. Simmons'
grandfather), and his father was named Jacob (related by Mrs. Lector Langdon,
d/o Guston P. Matthews and gd/o James Henderson Matthews). If this connection is correct, it would mean
that Eli Carter and James Henderson Matthews were first cousins, again a
logical relationship for someone serving as bondsman. None of this is positive proof, but it is
compelling.

MATTHIS/MATTHEWS/MATHIS
FAMILY 7 84
The name is spelled in
various ways. Available records indicated
that Edm ond, the pioneer
settler, and the majority of his children
spelled the name M atthis.
At least one of his children and several of his
grandchildren spelled it
Mathis.
Edmond's father Ezekial
could not write and signed by his mark. Th e
person who wrote Ezekial's
will spelled it Mathews.
We have been told of a
village in Wales, which we have been unable
to locate on a map, named
Mathia s (pronounced Math'-yuss). The family
being of Welsh descent, it
might be ass umed that they originated in this
area and that this Welsh
name was corrupted into Matthis, Mathis and
Matthews. However, this is
only an assumption, not based on any know
facts.
Over the years there have
been controversies arisin g over the
correct spelling of the
family name. We must conclude that the nam es
Mathis, Mathews, Matthis
and Matthews are interchangeable.

Notes for DELANEY ADAMS:
According to my files, I
know of two newspapers which carried brief obituary notices for Delaney
Matthews.
One is the Raleigh "State Chronicle"
(Feb. 23, 1884 and March 1, 1884 editions):
Mrs. Matthews, wife of
Reuben Matthews, killed by a cyclone, about February 20, 1884, in Harnett
County.
A notice also appeared in
the Raleigh "Farmer and Mechanic" (February 27,
1884 edition):
Mrs. Matthews, wife of
Reuben Matthews, killed by a cyclone, February 19,
1884, near the
Johnston-Harnett county line. The tornadoes which tore through Johnston and
Harnett Counties, NC in February, 1884
caused tremendous damage to many farms, and there were quite
a few deaths caused by this
event.

68. JACOB6 MATTHEWS (SIMON5, JACOB4, JOSEPH3, HUGH2, RALPH1)1482,1483,1484 was born July 03, 1806 in Cumberland County NC, and
died 1888 in Jackson, MS (Hinds County)1485. He married LURANY JOHNS1486,1487,1488 September 12, 1833 in around Murray Ga.1489. She was born January 16, 1816 in North
Georiga, and died 1888 in Jackson, MS
(Hinds County)1489.
Notes for JACOB MATTHEWS:
All of the information on
Jacob Matthews and all his children is copied from the family bible of Jacob
Matthews and Lurany Johns. Copy on file
at the MS State Archives in Jackson Miss. The bible was in the possession of
the granddaughter in law of John Cicero Matthews and a handwritten copy of the
above info by her is also in my possession... Mary Faith Matthews
Jacob headed to Georgia, possibly
with dreams of striking it rich in the Gold Rush there in 1828. Instead, he found a bride and started his
family, then spent about 10 years in Alabama and then went on to
Mississippi. Jacob and Lurany and six children are living on the plantation of
William Spencer in Jackson, MS in 1850. Jacob is a mechanic. I certainly would love to know what a
mechanic did in 1850. Did he keep the cotton gins in good
still in the family in the
early 1900's. Jacob and Lurany had 11 children.
One baby, born in 1850, only lived a day. All of the rest made it to adulthood,
although they lost their second son, James Martin, during the Battle of
Peachtree Creek outside Atlanta 20 July 1864.
The oldest son Simon was severely wounded in that battle. Jacob and Lurany sent five sons off to fight
for the Confederacy. Neal Archibald, my
husband's great grandfather, was captured 17 May 1863 at Champion Hill and
taken to Memphis, TN as a prisoner of war.
He must've not been kept there too long as he was back in Meridian, MS
in hospital in Oct 1863. John Cisero was 18 when he went off to fight the
Yankee's in 1864. Now four sons had
left the farm to fight for the South. I
can imagine Jacob and Lurany's despair on the day that Jacob and
one of his two remaining sons were out in the yard and the Cavalry rode
in. William Green was born in 1848 and was
probably 16 or younger when the captain of that reg't. told him to
"Get
your mule and come with us. You're needed." Dinner that night must've seemed very
sad and lonely. Where once so
many children, so many strapping noisy young boys, were gathered around the
table, now only little Jacob Wade who
was under 10, and his two sisters were left . Mary Lurany (Mollie) was in her early teens and she and little Jacob now had to shoulder a larger amount of the
wife and a step daughter to
return to, Neil returned home and
married Harriet Ellis in Nov of 1865.
They stayed and farmed
until after 1870 when they moved , first to Erath Co. Texas and finally by 1878 to Gregg Co. TX, where
some of their descendants still
live. John Cicero and his son John Jr apparently kept the
original farm outside of Jackson, MS. Jacob
and Lurany saw their son William Green leave for Texas about 1882. After a few years of
probably not far from his
brother Neil in Gregg co. TX. Jacob and Lurany Johns Matthews died in 1888 and
are buried at Greenwood Cemetery in Jackson, MS.

The US 1880 census has S.J.
Matthews and Margaret in the lst Ward Red river
Louisiana census. It shows them with two williams children ----
T.B. which I
think is probably FB and
G.A. Williams. What led me to Red River
Parish is
Margaret's sister Elizabeth
Wardlaw married to one W.W. Wardlaw. Apparently
they migrated out that way
when things were so bad in mississippi after the
Civil War. Virginia Brame

Notes for JOHN MATTHEWS:
Johns descentents are from
Maradee Cryer
Welcome Harold,
grandfather, Clarence Moody
Matthews is the youngest brother of my
grandfather
senior John Matthews.
However, I do have an old record book that was owned by
his son John and John's
wife Tabitha Gilson Matthew. In it is written that
they were in
Arkansas in 1867. In
the1870s my great grandfather Samuel Harmon Matthews was
in
County but do not know for
sure. When Samuel Harmon married about 1853 or 54
he and his wife Mary Ann
Chavers moved into part of an old plantation located
south of Natchez on the
Woodville Hwy. The plantation is called
Fair Oaks.
They also lived in The
Grove that is located next door. Recently another John
and Tabitha descendent
discovered an old family cemetery that is located on
Fair Oaks property. The
overgrown cemetery contained the tombstone of Sam and
Mary Ann Matthews' daughter
Charlotte Matthews Smith who died in her early
20s after having a baby.
Supposedly there were many other little wooden
crosses that used to
surround this stone. A fire had burned the area some
years ago and destroyed the
crosses. We think these were the 4 babies of Sam
and Mary who died soon
after birth. We have often wondered where they were
buried. Living there with
Sam Matthews was his brother Loderick Matthews, his
wife Mattie Horne Matthews
and their family. At some point Sam's sister
Martha Matthews Welch and
her family lived there or in The Grove Plantation
next door. All families
moved together to Franklin Parish, Louisiana in the
early 1900s.

Notes for SEABORN CASWELL MATTHEWS:
Seaborn Caswell Matthews
Cemetery Record Book in
Chancery Clerk's Office in Hazelhurst, MS, lists Matthews Cemetery, Location -
An old plantation cemetery with wire fence all down, about 7 miles southeast of
Crystal Springs, Copiah County, Mississippi.
******************************************************************************************************************
From
I can tell you where his
gravesite is as I visited it this past December. The cemetery is located
approximately 7 miles southeast from Crystal Springs. Go through the town of Crystal Springs and
out Harmony Road to Berry's store. Turn
right at the paved road just before you
get to Berry's store and go 2 miles to a brick house on the left side of the
road. This is the home of a black man who owns the land where Seaborn and Jane
are buried. Mr. A. J. Barron who lives in Crystal Springs knows the man, who is
an invalid, and took us to his house. His granddaughter, Vera, very kindly took
us to the cemetery which is about 100 yards behind his house in the woods. The
fence around the cemetery is partially down. There is a tall square headstone
at the head of Jane and Seaborn Matthews graves which contain the following
information:
S. C. Matthews ? Aug. 3,
1817- Dec. 31, 1897 on one side and Jane Matthews ? Oct. 2, 1829 ? Oct. 22,
1882 on the next side.
The inscription on the base
of the marker reads "Asleep in Jesus far from thee, Thy kindred and their
graves may be, But thine still a blessed sleep from which none ever wake to
weep." The concrete covers over the graves were buried under several
inches of dirt. When we removed the
dirt, there was a small marker inscribed SCM and another inscribed JM at the
end of largest cover. There is a tombstone with Henry M. crudely scratched on
the very top, not on the face, and a
tombstone with M.P.M. on it. There are
two small wooden markers with no inscription.
My information on the
children of Allen Matthews and Sity Vious Riley are as follows:
Harmon P., b. 05/22/1813 d. 10/23/1897,
Emeline Malisey, b. 04/10/1815,
Seaborn Caswell, b. 08/3/1817 d. 12/31/1897,
Allen, b. 1819,
Elizabeth Ellen, b. 01/02/1821 d. 1888,
Mary Ann, b. 10/16/1822,
Arthur Tillman, b. 11/02/1827 d. 09/14/1898.
I also show that Harmon P.
and Mary Gates had 10 children, among them, sons
named Allen M., Arthur and
Sebron; daughters named Emeline, City and Mary.
Sebron Caswell and Jane
Newsom had 17 children, among them, sons named Allen
G., Harmon, Arthur T.,
Loderick Ellis (my great grandfather); and a daughter named Mary. It does get
confusing with so many name repetitions. I welcome any
corrections or additions.
Thanks,

Notes for LODERICK WILLIAM MATTHEWS:

[UseMe.GED]
Dates of Loderick William
Matthews and Sarah Moore Goodwin were obtained thru two sources:
1. Correspondence with
Nettie Matthews Simmons (1964)
2. From the
"Researchin' Ouachita-Calhoun Counties Ak." Vol 14, No. 2 - published
by the Ouachita-Calhoun Genealogical Society, P. O. Box 2092, Camden Arkansas
71701. This issue contained a
transscription of Bible records from Bibles in the hands of members of the
Patton and Matthews families.
There were only minor
differences between the two sets of records.
The first set did not list the second wife of Loderick William Matthews.
However, the transcription record uses a mixiture of initials and full names. Where there is a difference in a date, the
Bible record is used.
In addition to
El Dorado. One of his Granddaughters, Nettie Lee
Matthews Simmons provided
me with most of the
information I have on Loderick's clan.
She also lived
in El Dorado. I would have to surmise that two two families
were not able
to remain in contact since
her information was very limited.

The Matthews Bible record as
transcribed has a question as to the spelling.
It may have been Avorla. The Arnold
name came from correspondence with Nettie Simmons - and may be more
trustworthy.
