Jimmy Matherly told me that he thought his grandfather, Jerry, had changed the spelling of the Matherly name from Matherlee to Matherly.  When I was at the cemetery in Penrod, I seem to recall seeing a headstone marked "John Woodford Matherlee and Polly Jenkins".  This was Jimmy's great grand parents. I also saw a tombstone for Dan R. Matherlee, b. 18 Nov, 1865  d. 31 May, 1937. This was Jerry's brother.

Jerry was first married to Lina Carolyn Welborn the 14 of Oct 1876 in Muhlenberg, Kentucky.

In the 1880 census, Moses and Frances Welborn, L.C's parents lived next door.

Children of  Jerry and Lina Carolyn (Welborn) Matherly:
Clifton (Alonzo Clifton "Lon" "Lonnie") Matherly b. 18 Jun 1878 d. 19 Oct 1952
Pearly Matherly  b. Nov 1879  She married Kennerly Baugh -they had four children, Vera, Velma, Ruth, and Katheryn.
Myrtle Ann, she first married Shelby Anderson and then Elmer Jesse Davis.

Jerry married Amanthis "Mant" B. Southerland (1866-1939), the 21 of Feb, 1886 in Muhlenberg, Kentucky. They had two children, Zephrey Zene, "Zephie", and Alvin Matherly.

In the family photo which Whitney Kinkel posted, I am guessing the identities and dates. The year is about 1897. L-R front, "Lon"(about 19), "Jerry", (about 43), Alvin, in Jerry's lap, (about 2 or 3), "Mant", (about 31), "Zephie", (about 7 or 8). In the back, on the left, Pearly May, (about 18), and Myrtle Ann, (about 17).
