Matheny Family History
Daniel Boone Matheny 1793-1872
The war of 1812 – In January of 1815 young Daniel Boone Matheny, served under Andrew Jackson at the Battle of New Orleans, While in New Orleans, Daniel had witnessed a slave auction. This event forever turned Matheny against slavery. Sometime in 1817 or 1818 Daniel, with his brothers Joshua and Henry and sister Mary Matheny Cooper crossed the Ohio river to the northern boundary of Hardin County, Kentucky, and settled in Indiana and then continued to Illinois.
The Blackhawk Wars – In 1832 Daniel Boone Matheny was selected as first lieutenant in Captain John Stennett’s Company Mounted Rangers, of Illinois Volunteers. It was in the Black Hawk War that Daniel met Abraham Lincoln, who was serving from Sangamon County. Charlotte Matheny Kirkwood said her father “knew and loved” Lincoln and they were very good friends The best man at Lincoln’s marriage to Mary Todd was a Matheny.
The 1843 Oregon Trail Wagon Train Crossing. The first wagon train to cross the plains all the way to the Oregon territory assembled in Missouri and Daniel Matheny was one of the leaders from the onset. He and his brothers led a large company of wagons and rotated as scouts for the entire train on this treacherous journey. When they finally made it to Fort Vancouver on the Columbia river in the Oregon territory they were met by British soldiers and a serious lack of food. The Matheny Brother’s would not be deterred, they stood up to the British with other “American” settlers until they backed down. The family settled near Oregon City and then started to build a ferry boat to get food and settlers across the Willamette river.
The Wheatland Ferry – The ferry begun by the Matheny’s in 1844 was the first capable of accommodating a wagon and ox team crossing the river. It was the only ferry upstream from Champoeg, seventeen miles away. The Wheatland ferry now called the Daniel B. Matheny IV is still in operation today and is the oldest ferry in the state of Oregon.
