The stories which are buried in musty old records. This is a distant cousin several times removed.
Samuel4. (John3, Samuel2, Samuel1) married several times. In Essex records, 1720, there is a bond dated 1706 from Samuel Mathews, of St. Stephen's parish, King and Queen County, to Major George Braxton for the benefit of Elizabeth Mary Mathews5, "whom I had by my deceased wife." In Samuel Mathews' will (November 16, 1718), proved in Richmond County, he refers to this bond as "executed" from him "the day I was married to Katherine Dunstall when I was very much in drink." By his first marriage he also had John, died s. p., Baldwin, died s. p. By his second marriage he had no issue. He married, third, Margaret (who survived him, and she married William Shrime).
