While I can fill in the lineage for the Matheny/Matheney family back from Jeanette Matheny and I know cousin Norma has used the family for First Families of Tennessee, I have come across more information on Ancestry.com. This involves a book that has an entry titled "The Matheney Family" The first sentence is, "The Matheneys are of French descent and were among the Hugenots that were driven from France in 1685 because of their religious views." Would anyone have a copy of this article or know what publication it first appeared. I do not think it is from "The Big Blue Book" from Pickett County. I have that page. Any help would be appreciated. TIA Marilyn -- "If you don't get outside every day, even for a minute, you have not appreciated what God has done.
