Hello, My name is Julie (Golden) Mathews and I am a Mantlo descendant. I have intended to post my information since this list began, but I'm just now getting around to it! My great-great grandfather was Dr. William W. Mantlo. He was the youngest child of Richard Wallace Mantlo and Martha Burnett Harris Mantlo. William was born Sept. 7, 1826 in Robertson Co., Tennessee. I know little about his childhood. He shows up in the 1850 Maury Co., TN census. He was married ??, I guess, to a 14 yr old. I don't have her name at hand. I think there were just initials and don't know what her surname was. I don't think they had any children. I don't know how or when she died. William was a teacher by occupation at that time. At some point he received training to become a physician. I'm not sure what one had to do in, in those days, to become a physician. William married Sarah Susan Stringer Jan. 3, 1858 in Grundy Co., Missouri. (I don't know when or why he moved to Missouri). They had the following children: 1. William W. Mantlo, Jr. b. ?? d. 1878 from gunshot wound. 2. Thomas Watkins Mantlo b. April 4, 1859 d. Jan. 17, 1933 3. Jefferson Conrad Mantlo b. Feb. 6, 1863 d. June 25, 1956 4. David Stonewall Jackson Mantlo b. Oct. 13, 1868 d. Feb. 16, 1916 Sarah died Sept 20, 1869. William married Sarilda Harless Feb. 27, 1870 in Sullivan Co., Missouri. It is from that marriage that my great grandfather, James Marion Mantlo was born. Sarilda & William's children: 1. James Marion Mantlo b. Dec. 29, 1874 d. Sept 15, 1945 2. Nove L. Mantlo b. Aug 8, 1876 d. Oct 23, 1929 3. Samuel Mantlo b. Nov. 1877 d. ??? 4. Bessie Mantlo b. May 1880 d. July 3, 1926 5. Wallace E. Mantlo b. Feb 22, 1881 d. May 30, 1925 6. Lucretia G. Mantlo b. June 1882 d. ??? 7. Franklin L. Mantlo b. Sept 1885 d. Jan. 7, 1956 8. Benjamin H. Mantlo b. Dec. 1889 d. July 29, 1962 My great grandfather James Marion Mantlo married Armeda "Mae" Miller Sept 21, 1900 in Mercer County, Missouri. They had the following children: 1. Edna Mae Mantlo (my grandmother) b. Dec. 9, 1902 D. March 12, 1996 In Trenton, Missouri. Married Bertie Vernon Golden Sept 7, 1921 in Mercer Co., Missouri. 2. Opal Mantlo 3. Nellie "Frances" Mantlo 4. Ruth Mantlo 5. Grace Mantlo 6. Martha Gail Mantlo I can provide more info about the daughters of James & Mae Mantlo, if anyone is interested. Three sisters Edna, Opal and Frances married three Golden brothers. Edna Mantlo and Bertie Golden had three children: 1. Mary Kathleen Golden 2. Charley Glen Golden (my dad) 3. Frena Fairy Golden All three are still living. Back to Dr. Mantlo....he died in abt Sept 1903. I haven't been able to find an exact date. He was buried in the Topsy Cemetery in Mercer Co., MO but there is no headstone. Please feel free to e-mail me with any questions. I'm sure we're all related. Mantlo is a very unusual name. Does anyone know what country we're from, originally?? Thanks for your time. Julie

Hello Cousin, Remember me? This is Julie Shellberg, you and I talked on email about 5 or so years ago about our family. My great gma Hazel Mantlo is Jefferson's daughter. I have still tried to find where our Mantlo family name came from in Ireland. I am still at a dead end but I am beginning to think our name evolved from Mantle a very common name in Ireland. Well I hope you and your family are doing very well.
