General Notes: Husband - James Matthews

---

He was the proprietor of the Exchange Livery Stable at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, situated on the plot of ground later occupied by the Duquesne Theatre. His death was caused by an accident, a fiery-tempered horse which he was endeavoring to break into carriage use bolted and overturned the buggy in which Mr. Matthews was seated. After his death his wife lived at the home of her son-in-law, Rev. Henry Johnson. Both affiliated with the United Presbyterian Church.
