The descendants of Sir Mathew ap Evan, knighted in 1386 by Richard II, took the surname Mathews, dropping the Welsh "ap", or "son of." George Mathews is the first of the line to come to America; he emigrated in 1720 from somewhere in Northern Ireland, probably near Ballynure between Belfast and Ballymena, to Pennsylvania, afterwards removing to Augusta County, Virginia. Four of George's sons -- Alexander, George, Jeremiah, and Allen -- who spelled the family name as Mathes, moved to Washington County, Tennessee.
