Also, I found Mattie in 1910 in Hampton County SC. Jasper County was formed from Hampton county and Beaufort in 1912. In 1920, Mattie was widowed. But in 1910, the census states that her husband is Dave Rivers Jr. Dave is living next to a Dave Rivers who is 77 years old and widowed.

I hopes this Helps
