In 1860 A. Mateer aged 34 years was listed as a milliner in Mechanicburg, Pennsylvania; her household included two daughters, L. E. aged 13 and P. C. aged 12, also two sons, J. D. aged 10 and J. C. aged 8 years.
On 17 March 1863 in connection with the estate settlement of John Mateer, a guardian William R. Gorgas, was appointed for John D. and James C. Mateer, minors under 14 years, on petition of Amelia H. Mateer, and of Laura E. and Priscilla C. Mateer over 14 Years at their own request; all four minors were described as children of James Mateer deceased 'lately of the City of Harrisburg.' On 22 December 1863 A. H. Mateer, widow of James Mateer late of Lower Allen Township, deceased, petitioned the court for a distribution from the estate for her daughter Laura E. Mateer now 17 years old, residing in Mechanicsburg with her mother 'who supports herself there as a mantua maker.' Since William R. Gorgas Esquire guardian of the said Laura has on hand $213, and more is expected from the estate of Laura's grandfather, John Mateer Sr., late of Newville deceased, the petitioner requests a release now of $100 'to further her daughter's education.'
