NAME:Bill Baker
SURNAMES:BLACK, MATHEWS, MATHIS
I am researching the BLACK and MATHES (MATHEWS, MATHIS) lines, in Reynolds County, specifically around the Oats and Black areas, and Black River Township. John MATHES married Rachel BLACK before 1870. John died before 1886. They had at least three children: J. R. Mathis (b. 1866-76), Emma E. MATHIS (b. June 08, 1871, d. May 24, 1942) married James Henry HELMS of Dent, later Washington County (1868-1938), and Anna Mae MATHIS (b. July 27, 1881 in Black, MO., d. August 26, 1957, ILL.) married George Wilson Gilliam in Washington County, MO. I believ (some people say) that John MATHES is the son of David MATHES and Elizabeth ALLEN (1798-aft. 1850) and siblings were William and Louisa MATHES. Bill Baker
