In 1830 through 1880 a large number of Mathison families lived in Covington and Jefferson Davis Counties. Most lived from Mt Olive down to Mt Carmel. These were white raced Scotts but among them were several families of black MATHISON. The name Neil MATHISON was in the 1880 census for a black and a white family.
Any information on this subject is welcomed.
