  1. A quick search on ancestry.com seems to show quite a few people with the surname that lived in Texas and Tennessee.

    Meanwhile, you might want to check out the family trees at Rootsweb and see if you can find your family line on one of them.  If so, you could contact the person who is compiling that particular tree.... http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/ (just put in your surname...it's free)

    MANTOOTH

    Probably an altered form of Scottish Monteith or Mantach, a nickname from Gaelic manntach ‘stammering’ (also ‘toothless’ in Irish), of which one early Welsh recorded form is Mantath.

    MONTEITH

    Scottish: habitational name from a place in Perthshire, named in Gaelic as ‘hill pasture (above) the Teith’, from monadh ‘hill pasture’ + Teith, a river name of obscure origin. This name was introduced to Ulster, where it is now quite numerous in certain areas, particularly County Tyrone.
