    On 1 March 1766 John McTeer took out a warrant for land in Allen Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, adjoining his father's property on the northwest; when the new tract was surveyed on 9 March 1768 there were 37 acres 130 perches, and abutting property owners were Anthony McCue, Alexander Armstrong, Joshia McMeen and James Mcteer; a patent was issued on 12 December 1770.

    On 8 December 1770 James McTeer of Allen Township, yeoman, "for love and affection and five shillings" deeded to John McTeer of Allen Township, "son of the said James McTeer", 100 acres in Allen Township, including messuage and tenement, buildings, rents, issues and profits, bounded by land of the said James McTeer but now of William McTeer, being part of a tract patented to James
    McTeer on 11 November 1760. Witnesses: Jonathan Hoge, Anthony McCue, William McTeer. Acknowledged 1 December 1770. Recorded 22 December 1775.

    During the Revolution in 1777 and again in 1778 John McTeer was chosen captain of the First Company in the Third Battalion of the Cumberland County Militia; in 1781 he was listed as a member of Capt. Thomas Laird's Company.

    The will of John McTeer, dated 10 September 1789, probated 9 June 1790, bequeathed to his wife Mary, one-third of the personal estate; to son James, the bed "he now has in Carlisle", bedding and 10 pounds; the remaining two-thirds of the personal estate to be divided equally between the seven youngest children: Samuel Huston, John, Andrew, Alice, Isabel, Mary and Ann. Executors: wife Mary McTeer, Samuel Huston McTeer and John McTeer. Witnesses: William McMeen, Robert McMeen, John Creigh.

    The 1790 census of Allen Twp., Cumberland County, lists Mary McTeer as head of a household with four males over sixteen years and four females. On 4 February 1793 when a militia list was made for all male residents of Cumberland County between 18 and 45 years, three from this family were included, James, Samuel H. and John; Andrew was not quite old enough to be listed.

    On 1 April 1795 Mary McTeer, Samuel Huston McTeer and John McTeer of Allen Township, "Gentlewoman and yeomen" conveyed to Michael Hurst of Refoo (Rapho) Township Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, for 1700 pounds "in gold or silver coin", two "contiguous" tracts totaling 137 acres 130 perches in Allen Township: one piece of 100 acres granted by "patent" to James McTeer on 11 November 1760 and conveyed by Deed Pool of 8 December 1770 from James to his son John, bounded by lands of the late said James now of William McTeer and by land of Anthony McCue; the second piece of 37 acres 130 perches granted "patent" to John McTeer on 12 December 1770, bounded by James McTeer, Alexander Armstrong. is now dead and by his will has empowered the present grantors, his Executors, to sell the property.

Generation: 2

  1. 2.  James McTeer Descendancy chart to this point (1.John1) was born Abt 1761; died Bef 3 Nov 1817.

    Notes:

    James "of Lisburn" died suddenly.

    According to the records of the Pennsylvania Direct Tax of 1798 for Allen Twp.,
    Cumberland Co., James McTeer Jr. was then owner and occupant of a two-story
    frame house in Lisburn. That dwelling was 24 by 18 feet with five windows
    containing 56 lights; there was also a frame kitchen 18 by 8 feet, and both
    structures were located on a lot containing 108 perches. The whole property
    was valued at $300.

    On 3 Nov. 1817 Andrew Mateer was appointed Administrator of the intestate
    estate of James McTeer of Lisburn. Bond was set for $600.

    On 15 May 1818 Andrew Mateer, brother and one of the heirs of James Mateer,
    late of Allen Twp., deceased, came into Court to state that James had died
    intestate "leaving one brother and three sisters of the whole blood surviving",
    namely Andrew Mateer, Alice wife of Nathaniel Wilson, Isabella widow of John
    Creigh deceased, Mary widow of Charles Pattison, "and the issue of two
    brothers", namely, Samuel Mateer's five children, John, Andrew, James, Samuel
    and William, the last three of whom are minors; and John Mateer's four
    children, Mary Ann, Martha, John and Andrew, all minors. The principal assets
    of this estate were a two story brick house on the south side of Pomfret St. in
    Carlisle, and in Lisburn a brick house and several lots. On 18 Sept. 1821 the
    estate had a balance of $130,29 to be distributed, and arrangements were made
    to dispose of the real estate at public vendue. After several postponements
    for lack of buyers, all of these properties were sold on 16 Dec. 1825 to
    Isabella Creigh for $1066.50.

  2. 3.  Samuel Huston Mateer Descendancy chart to this point (1.John1) was born Abt 1760, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania; died 1803, York County, Pennsylvania.

    Notes:

    Within six weeks of the date of Samuel's wife's will (Jean Ewing) Samuel sold off his land and farming equipment and six weeks after that he was dead. Rather obviously Samuel Mateer was sick unto death for some time before his demise, and it was appropriate that his wife's family should be distressed to contemplate the future for his widow and young children.

    In a militia list of 4 February, 1793, Samuel H. McTeer was shown as a resident of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, aged between 18 and 45 years.

    On 5 November 1796 Samuel McTeer of Newton Township, Cumberland County, bid in at public vendue for 153 pounds, a 71 acre tract with improvements in Newton Township, which had been seized in August 1792 by the County Collector of Revenue on a judgment against Joseph Wilson late of Cumberland County for 150.78.6 pounds. Sheriff's deed dated 7 April 1797, filed 11 October 1797.

    On 30 April 1798 Paul Thompson and wife Agnes of Monaghan Township, York County, conveyed to Samuel Huston McTeer of Newton Township, Franklin County, PN, for 550 pounds, 90 acres 19 perches in Monaghan Township with the usual allowance of 8 acres 113 perches. Witnesses: Edward O'Hal, John Nesbit, Hugh Thompson.

    In the spring of 1803 Samuel H. Mateer announced a public vendue for Friday, 13 March 1803, to sell his land in Monaghan Township, 100 acres with improvements, grain in the ground, mare, cows, hogs, a case of drawers and a dresser. The terms of the sale were for the plantation 150 pounds down and the remainder at the rate of 30 pounds yearly; for bids under 10 shillings, cash, for bids
    exceeding 10 shillings, nine months credit; and the "owner reserves one bid on each article if he sees cause." -- At the sale Major Thomas McCreary bought the plantation for 460 pounds, but before the transaction was legally completed Samuel H. Mateer was dead. In lieu of a deed the following papers were filed in York County on 16 May 1803: notice of the sale (as above) with a list of buyers; a deposition of John May that the sales notice as exhibited was in the handwriting of Samuel H. Mateer, "late of Monaghan Township, York County, who was present at the sale"; and the Prothonotary's certification that there was a valid contract between Mateer and Thomas McCreary.

  6. 7.  Andrew Mateer Descendancy chart to this point (1.John1) was born 26 Mar 1773, , Cumberland, Pennsylvania; died 4 Aug 1837, , Cumberland, Pennsylvania; was buried , Cumberland, Pennsylvania.

    Notes:

    On 3 Nov. 1817 Andrew Mateer was appointed Administrator of the intestate
    estate of James McTeer of Lisburn. Bond was set for $600.

    On 15 May 1818 Andrew Mateer, brother and one of the heirs of James Mateer,
    late of Allen Twp., deceased, came into Court to state that James had died
    intestate "leaving one brother and three sisters of the whole blood surviving",
    namely Andrew Mateer, Alice wife of Nathaniel Wilson, Isabella widow of John
    Creigh deceased, Mary widow of Charles Pattison, "and the issue of two
    brothers", namely, Samuel Mateer's five children, John, Andrew, James, Samuel
    and William, the last three of whom are minors; and John Mateer's four
    children, Mary Ann, Martha, John and Andrew, all minors. The principal assets
    of this estate were a two story brick house on the south side of Pomfret St. in
    Carlisle, and in Lisburn a brick house and several lots. On 18 Sept. 1821 the
    estate had a balance of $130,29 to be distributed, and arrangements were made
    to dispose of the real estate at public vendue. After several postponements
    for lack of buyers, all of these properties were sold on 16 Dec. 1825 to
    Isabella Creigh for $1066.50.

    Buried in Silver Spring Cemetery.

    Married at Big Spring Presbyterian Church.

    Andrew Mateer was an early settler of Lisburn in Lower Allen Township, where he
    had property in a loop of Yellow Breeches Creek. Because he was engaged in
    many speculative real estate transactions, particularly with the buying and
    selling of tax escheated property, Andrew's name occurs frequently in the deed
    indexes of Perry and York as well as of Cumberland County. However, detailed
    information on these conveyance is omitted here as having little or no
    genealogical value.

    In his younger days Andrew may have been a carpenter. A list of the members of
    the Carpenters' Society of Carlisle, drawn up about 1795 includes Andrew
    Metter, Charles Pattison, his brother-in-law, and James Minteer, his brother.
    Members of this Society agreed not to work under carpenters who were not
    fellow-members and thus earned for their organization the designation as the
    "earliest Labor Union on record."

    In the record of his marriage, and elsewhere as administrator and witness, he
    is identified as Major Andrew Mateer; so he must have had some military
    connection in the local community. Later he was a Justice of the Peace, known
    as "Squire Mateer."

    In the 1820 census of Allen Township, Cumberland County, Andrew Mateer's
    household was credited with four males, three 26-45 and one under five years;
    three females, one 26-45, one 16-26 and one under five years.

    The will of Andrew Mateer of the town of Lisburn, Cumberland County, written 29
    June 1838, probated 13 August 1839, begins with an explanation, "in consequence
    of misfortunes some years since my own estate was sold by the Sherrif" but "my
    sister the late Isabella Creigh by her will bequeathed to my children nearly
    all of her estate and appointed me guardian and executor." Records on that
    property have all been accounted for in Orphans Court, and the testator now
    asks that another guardian be appointed for his youngest daughter, Margaret I.
    Mateer; he further requests that any property remaining in his estate be
    distributed according to intestate law. Executrices: the widow Ann Mateer and
    daughter Mary A. Mateer. A codicil dated 21 June 1839 "since daughter Mary Ann
    has since married Samuel Clerk" asks that he be appointed joint executor in her
    place. Witnesses to the will: George Anderson, William M. Mateer; to the
    codicil, Isaac Lloyd and George Anderson.

    Notes:

    In 1829 Mary Pattison was assessed for taxes on a lot on High Street in
    Carlisle, a log house and a cow.

    Some of their family are said to have moved to the vicinity of Bucyrus, Ohio.
    This statement appears to be substantiated by the discovery in 1828 of Mary
    (Mateer) Pattison's Bible in Dayton, Ohio. In addition to the birth, death and
    marriage dates for Mary and Charles, their children are listed with death dates
    for Elizabeth and both Johns, as given hereafter; deaths and ages are entered

Generation: 3

  1. 10.  John Mateer Descendancy chart to this point (3.Samuel2, 1.John1) was born 15 Oct 1794, , Cumberland, Pennsylvania; died 21 Aug 1863, , Morrow, Ohio; was buried Mt. Gilead, Ohio.

    Notes:

    Buried in River Cliff Cemetery.

    This family lived in York County Pennsylvania for a time before coming to Ohio.
    In 1830 John Mateer and his brother William were in Mansfield, Richland County,
    Ohio; John and his wife were both aged 30-40 years with four children, a boy
    and girl aged 5-10 and another boy and girl under five years. The female aged
    60-70 years living in their household was probably John's mother Hannah
    (Nesbit) (Mateer) Sofley.

    Soon after this census John Mateer moved on to Mt. Gilead, Ohio, where he
    engaged as a millwright; he was prominent in the organization of the
    Presbyterian Church there. In 1832 he was superintendent of its Sunday School,
    and in 1834 its Ruling Elder.

    In the 1840 census of Washington Township, Marion County, Ohio, John Mateer was
    listed as engaged in manufacturing; he and his wife were aged 40-50 years and
    their household included boys aged 0-5, 5-10, 10-15, 15-20; as well as girls
    aged 5-10, 10-15, 15-20. Morrow County was organized in 1848 from parts of
    Marion, Knox, Delaware and Richland Counties.

    In the 1850 census of Gilead Township, Morrow County, John Mateer aged 56 was
    head of a household which included Jane Mateer aged 58, Mary Mateer aged 21,
    Elizabeth Mateer aged 17 and James M. Mateer aged 16. Elizabeth and James were
    born in Ohio, the others in Pennsylvania.

    On 23 April 1853 John Mateer was appointed guardian of Jane Ivey and Benjamin
    Pinyard; bond for Jane's estate was $200 and her final account was filed 18
    April 1855; Benjamin's estate was bonded for $300, and his final account was
    filed 6 March 1860. In 1852 Jane Pinyard married Mahlon Ivey (or Irey); she is
    presumed to have been Benjamin's sister; before this time John Mateer's oldest
    daughter had married a William Pinyard, but the relationship of Jane and
    Benjamin to either the Pinyards or the Mateers is nowhere indicated in the
    guardianship proceedings.

    In 1860 John Mateer, farmer aged 65, was living in the town of Mt. Gilead with
    wife Jane aged 67 and daughter Mary J. Mateer aged 31.

    The will of John Mateer of Morrow County, written 12 April 1863, probated 11
    September 1863, bequeathed to his wife Jane all property for her lifetime with
    rights of disposal at her discretion; at her death daughter Mary Jane Latham to
    have $100, and the balance of the estate to be divided equally between the
    testator's five children; sons Samuel Huston and John Creigh; daughters Hannah
    Pinyard, Mary Jane Latham and Elizabeth Caroline Shedd. Executors: sons
    Samuel H. and John C. Mateer, but if it should be inconvenient for them to
    serve, then the sons-in-law Charles Shedd and William Pinyard to be Executors.
    Witnesses: John R. Snyder, Joseph B. Lyon.

    Married at Silver Spring Church.

    Notes:

    The biography of William N. Mateer's son in the "History of Morrow County,
    Ohio", 1911, by A. J. Baughman and Robert F. Bartlett says that Ross's mother
    was Elizabeth Porter and that he had a half brother Joseph McMullin. This
    reasonable interpretation from this statement is that Elizabeth was married
    first to a McMullin and that William Mateer was therefore her second husband.

    William N. Mateer was a schoolteacher in Adams County, Pennsylvania, before
    moving west in 1830; in that year William and his brother John were listed in
    the census of Mansfield, Ohio; William was aged 20-30 years, his wife was
    30-40; there were two boys in the household, one 10-15 (probably William's
    step-son) and another under five years.

    Shortly after this census the Mateers moved on to Morrow County. William first
    settled in the new town of Whetstone (also called Youngstown) which had been
    laid out in 1824 in the NE 1/2 of Sec. 2 (in the south part of the present town
    of Mt. Gilead). He was the first chairmaker in the new community and also its
    schoolmaster.

    On 2 March 1831 William N. and Elizabeth Mateer along with John and Jane Mateer
    were listed as members of the "Presbyterian Church of Morrow" (now the
    Presbyterian Church of Mt. Gilead). William N.'s son Ross N. Mateer was
    baptized at the first such sacrament held in this church; his father was Sunday
    School Superintendent there at the time.

    After a few years William N. and family left the town proper and moved to a
    farm some 2 1/2 miles east of Mt. Gilead, possibly on the land described in the
    following conveyance: On 3 April 1837 William N. Mateer of Marion County,
    Ohio, bought for $650 from Benjamin Hart and wife Mary of Knox County, Ohio, 80
    acres previously patented to Hart in the W 1/2 SE 1/4 Sec. 7, T 17, R 20 of
    lands sold at Wooster, Ohio. Morrow County was formed in 1848 from parts of
    Marion, Knox, Delaware and Richland Counties, and the modern location of this
    section would be in eastern Gilead Township or on the west edge of Franklin
    Township in Morrow County near the present Mateer Road.

    In the 1850 census of Franklin Township, Morrow County, Elizabeth Mateer aged
    55 years was head of a household including John Mateer aged 20, farmer, Ross
    Mateer aged 18, carpenter, and Matilda J. Mateer aged 16. Each of the three
    children was credited with real property worth $400; so the inference is that
    William had died intestate leaving his children as joint owners of the farm.
