  If James is the son of Nathaniel Matheny then he should have been born in Virginia, as Nathaniel lived his whole live there. The 1820 census has a James Mathena in Ohio, who possibly is this James. The only other important information on James is a declaration he made for his nephew Jacob who was the son of James's brother Nathaniel Matheny Jr:
