« on: Sunday 21 December 14 21:35 GMT (UK) »
I have been researching my Irish Matthews family for quite some time now and I have the following:
My GGGG Grandfather
John Mathews/Matthews married Mary Martin in 1766 in Salisbury St Thomas, Wiltshire
Principle Copyist at St Patrick's Cathedral and Vicar Choral. Cathedral Singer.
Also found in Durham Cathedral and Salisbury Cathedral
Death 1799 Dublin.
His Son my GGG Grandfather
John Mathews born about 1768, death 1854 in Clanbrassil Street, Dublin
Possible Marriage to Catherine Shaw in 1787 in Cashel Cathedral.
Vicar Choral, Organist 1806-1827
Their children were Anne, your Elizabeth and John, plus others
This John is my GG Grandfather born abt 1804 according to his death notice.
I have struggled to find their births but it could be they were born in Cashel.
Four daughters married into two of the L'estrange families, found here.

All the information you have found is the same as I have and if I find anymore I will let you know.
