Notes:

Information on this family is very sketchy -- a list of children, without
dates, from John Lowrie Mateer's notes: William, Elizabeth, Ann Jane and
Rebecca who married a Bock. Major McTeer's compilation adds a son John midway
of the list and gives Rebecca's married name as Book.

Census searching has provided a little possible Wise data in Cumberland County,
but nothing hereafter can be asserted without equivocation.

The 1860 census of Lower Allen Township, Cumberland County, lists W. Wise,
shoemaker aged 51 years, living with M. Wise aged 49, William Wise aged 25 and
R. Wise aged 14 years.

Notes:

William Mateer lived and died on the farm in Allen Township which his father
William had inherited from the original James McTeer. He was a faithful member
of Silver Spring Presbyterian Church, where he was known as "Singing Billy"
because he led the music with a "sonorous voice and a wonderful facility" for
adapting words to familiar tunes.

A legal release on 28 October 1828 stated that William Mateer is an "habitual
drunkard."

On 3 September 1829 John Mateer Jr. was appointed Administrator of the Estate
of William Mateer of Allen Township; bond was set for $400 with Robert Mateer
and John Mateer as sureties.

On 12 August 1834 John Mateer, eldest son of William Mateer, late of Allen
Township, deceased, stated in court that his father had died intestate leaving
a widow Rebecca and six children, namely, the petitioner, William, Henry
Wilson, Margaret Jane who married William Wise, Mary and Elizabeth. Three of
these children were minors: Daniel Mohler was guardian for Henry and AndrewChapman for Mary and Elizabeth. William Mateer died seized of 120 acres in
Allen Township, bounded by lands of John Mateer the Elder, David Hurst, Henry
Longnecker, Henry Myers and John Mateer of James; and now John Mateer the
petitioner requests an Inquest of Partition. On 2 September 1834 the Inquest
reported that this property, which was appraised at $25 per acre, could not be
conveniently divided; and on 10 December 1834 John Mateer, the eldest son,
elected to accept the real estate at valuation. Then on 2 April 1836 William
Mateer, Andrew Chapman as Guardian for Mary and Elizabeth Mateer, Daniel Mohler
as Guardian for Henry Wilson Mateer, and William Wise in the right of his wife
Margaret Jane acknowledged receipt of $344.05.5 for each share, with interest
on one-third to the widow for her lifetime.
