The family was of Scotch-Irish origin, and on David's side decendants of a soldier of the Revolution and of the Black Hawk War, from which he earned a land warrant.
When W. G. Mathes grew up the nearest school was four or five miles distant, and he received but a limited education, and devoted most of his attention to tilling the soil, for he decided to make that his life's calling. In 1859 he was married to Dorcas Anderson, a daughter of Samuel Anderson and Mary (McKinsie), a native of White County, Tenn.
