    • LDS AFN: P50J-K6
      The will of Isaac Mathis is will number 38, page 225, Will Book #1, 1758-1774 in Halifax County, North Carolina. In it he mentions his son Samuel, son Reaps, sons Robert and Peter, wife Mary, and Thomas, Jean, Isaac, Mary, Sarah, and daughter Susanna Humphris. It has son Isaac and son-in-law Samuel Davis as executors. It does not mention son Moses but if he was the eldest he had already moved to South Carolina so would not necessarily be mentioned.

      From "The History of Gwinnett County, Georgia":

      "The Mathews family," according to C. H. Ward, genealogist, "has a history dating back to Sir Ivan, 12th Lord of Cardigan, of Oril College, Oxford, England who married Cecily, daughter of Sir Robert de Clare, who was the second son of Richard, 4th Earl of Hertford and his wife Amecia, sister of Isabel, wife of King John of England, and a descendant of Adelaide, sister of William the Conqueror. Sir Mathew, son of Sir Ivan, born about 1360, was knighted during the reign of Richard II (1382-1399) and his descendants are those who bear the name of Mathews in any of its varied forms."
      "Captain, General, Governor Samuel Mathews, third son of Archbishop Tobias Mathews of Oxford, came to Virginia in 1622. Mary Mathews, daughter of Captain Samuel Mathews of Virginia, married Isaac Mathews, a grest-grandson of John Mathews of Milton and their son, Thomas Mathews, born in Virginia in 1726, came to South Carolina in 1767 and died there in 1831."

      Isaac Edward Mathews and his wife Mary Mathews were distant cousins; Gov. Mathews was an ancestor of Mary. Their lineage converges in Sir Mathew ap Evan, Knight, b. 1368, Llandaff Court, Glamorgan, Wales, d. 1419, Glamorgan, Wales, married to Jenet Fleming. Their son Sir Dafydd Mathew, Knight, married to Gwendoline Hebert, is the direct ancestor of Isaac. His brother Sir Robert Mathew, married to Alice Thomas, is the direct ancestor of Mary.
