General Notes: Husband - Matthias [2] Minton

Prosperity, Washington Co, PA

He received educational advantages as a youth, and by private application in reading and otherwise, prepared himself for the successful pursuance of his vocation, farming, and later merchandising and hotel-keeping.
In the autumn of 1861 he enlisted in the One Hundred and Fortieth Regiment, P. V. I., but on account of poor health was compelled to return home in July, 1862.
He was a life-long Democrat, and for twenty-four consecutive years served as justice of the peace. He was a zealous Christian, being united with the Presbyterian Church, in which he was deacon.
In 1890 he sustained injuries from a horse kick, which resulted in his death seven weeks later.
