I have been trying to make inroads on this darn Mathis family for quite sometime myself. I think we are related but I can not prove it for now...below is the info that I have : History of Clinch Co. GA by Huxford. A newer edition can be purchased through the Huxford GS which is listed on my web page: http://www.rootsweb.com/~gaclinch I hope you will also join our mailing list which is also listed on the web page.
