A family tree drawn by M. Jane Wier (Latham) in 1859 with the label of an 1861 family tree (also drawn by her) added in top right, found in the trunk of a descendant of her uncle David Stuart Wier. Published in the book GOING WEST WITH THE WIERS by Jennie V. Wier, p. 10, which contains other charts as well. These charts give the names of children and grandchildren of Thomas Wier Jr. and wife Mary Withrow, together with those of his brother James Wier and wife Mary Hamilton.

Jane Wier Latham was the daughter of the first couple's son James Wier and Rebecca Smith Wier.
Sometimes referred to as Mattie and sometimes as Jane Wier Latham. She signed a family tree in the 1850s as M. Jane Wier. For 21 years she operated Mrs. Latham's Select School for Young Ladies in a building adjoining the large two-story antebellum residence which burned in 1929. She wrote a Wier family history c1895 that was published in 1900 in The West Alabamian and reprinted in History of Pickens County (1962) by J.F. Clanahan (omitting the descendants of James Wier and Mary Hamilton who appear on the older charts.) Mother of six daughters. Great-great-grandmother of Carolyn Self Varner Blount, second wife of 59th U.S. Postmaster General Winton M. Blount, contractor and philanthropist. The Carolyn Blount Theater in Montgomery, Alabama is named for her.

Carrollton Presbyterian Church (2005) by Buren Windle: "The following information is from a book written by Dr. Hugh Hill (1960) 'When I first recall the Church; it was a small frame building. The congregation has never been very large. Their preaching service days have always been the third Sunday and prayer meetings on Sunday afternoon. They don’t have prayer meetings now. Miss Jane Latham was Mrs. Presbyterian, and her husband, Henry Latham, was second in command. Mattie Latham Lofton, who now lives here, is still leader in the Church. Mama was organist in 1884, and previous to that time all of her children, 5 in number, were christened in this Church. Dr. Prague was minister at that time.'"

Mary Hood Floyd said, "Grandmother Latham was the real matriarch not just of the family but the whole town as well."
Her cousin Marietta Owings concurred.
