Notes |
- The 1850 census lists a Bayley Mateer, preacher, living in Lower Allen
Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania; his houshold included his wife Mary
A. and three children: Sarah J. aged 10, Albert aged 7, and James A. aged two
years. Bayley's age is given as 27, and his wife's age as 25. This man was
almost certainly Bailey, but with a very considerable discrepancy for his and
his wife's ages.
In 1860 in Lower Allen Township, B. Mateer, laborer, aged 48 was listed with
wife M. aged 47, and children S. F. (female) aged 20 and J. D. (male) aged 12.
In the 1880 census schedule of Cumberland County Mary Mateer aged 66 years was
head of houshold on West Main Street in Shiremanstown; her daughter Sarah
Mateer aged 40 years was the only other occupant.
Buried in St. Johns "Peach Church", near Shiremanstown, Hampden Township.
