DUPLIN COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA

MATHIS FAMILY

Deeds


Important Note: When Sampson County was formed from Duplin County, the Duplin County Courthouse was physically located in Sampson County. Sampson County Deed Books 1 through 7 and most of Deed Book 8 (deeds up to 1784) are actually Duplin County Deed Books!


Note: The early record keepers used Mathis, Matthis, Mathews, Matthews & other variant spellings to refer to this family. There is no indication at this time that these references are to two different families.
