More information to add:the parents of Lloyd Matthews, ca, 1885 were Winfield Scott Matthews and Ella Etnire.Winfield Scott was born in 1850 and died in 1913.He was born in Fulton County, Illinois, to William Matthews (born in Maryland) and Mary Hammum (or some variation thereof).The handwriting is difficult to read on Scott's death certificate.Mary is noted as having been born in Pennsylvania.Interestingly enough, various census entries through the years for Scott indicated that his father was born in either Ireland or Pennsylvania.However, whoever completed the death certificate (probably his widow) either knew something not or guessed wrong on the certificate.
So, anyone have a William Matthews and a Mary Hammum?
Thanks
