LEGAL FAMILY DOCUMENTS

This section of the website will contain photo copies of legal documents relating to the the ancestry of our family.  It will be updated as documents become available and there will be sealed photocopies of the documents in binders for close up viewing at each Family Reunion.  If you have old documents you would like to share with us, please let us know and we can tell you either how to send them or make suggestions about how to preserve and show them.

If you would like to have an Ancestral Chart to use for your personal family information, you may contact me by email.


I will begin this section with our earliest descendant, Stephen James Matthews, Sr. and his marriage to Catherine Price.  These are photo copies of very old documents and will be in most cases, difficult to read.  It can be read more easily, in most instances, with a magnifying glass.


If you would like to request a death certificate of a family member from the state of TN, you may email me.

If you would like to add your documents to our family history, and can scan them and send them via email; please
email them to me in a picture (.jpg) format.  That way I can print and seal them for display at our family reunions.

Use the pull down menu to see the different types of documents we have.
