I was able to get info of about ten generations 
of Mattices following my father-in-law's line:
                Robert Freeman Mattice (my husband's dad)
                Charles Freeman Mattice (Robert's father)
                Harry B Mattice (Charles' father)
                Freeman Stanton Mattice (Harry's)
                Lawrence G. Mattice (Freeman's)
                Frederick Mattice (Lawrence's)
                Nicholas Mattice 1 (Frederick's)
                Hendrick Mattice 1 (Nicholas')
                Caspar Matheus (the first in the line...the farthest we can go back)
