The earliest occurances of the Mathia - Matthia Familiy in Poland are in the area near Tuchola, in the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship in northern Poland. In the earliest church records are four men who we call "patriarchs." Three lived in the village of Żalno (German Sehlen), northwest of Tuchola. One lived in Groß Komorze (Wielka Komorza).

In addition to the above, the death of a Jacobus Mathia, age 95 (estimated birth 1681) is recorded in the Reetz parish: | These men could have been brothers, but we have not yet found records of their births.
