Also looking for a Joseph Mateer: b 1910 d 1977. married to mary ellen martin. only other record found for joseph is the 1911 census. bar that its like he doesnt exist. Joseph mateer father is edward mateer

on joseph marriage document there is a john mateer. when looking at ancestry he appears on other trees as being born 1912 and brother to joseph.

looking to find any records relating to these relative. births/deaths anything really. i apologise i knows its a big ask!!

Does the other thread say where he was from?



Give a man a record and you feed him for a day.
Teach a man to research, and you feed him for a lifetime.

Also looking for a Joseph Mateer: b 1910 d 1977. married to mary ellen martin. only other record found for joseph is the 1911 census. bar that its like he doesnt exist. Joseph mateer father is edward mateer

on joseph marriage document there is a john mateer. when looking at ancestry he appears on other trees as being born 1912 and brother to joseph.A John Mateer born 1912- son of Edward McTeer & Annie Black-

At least one online tree has Joseph born 21 Jan.1910, parents Edward Mateer & Annie O'Reilly. The same tree has father Edward married several times  :-\
1- to Annie O'Reilly with sons Joseph (1910) & John (1912)
2- to Annie Molyneaux with sons Joseph (1910) & John (1912)
3- to Catherine- 3 children
4- unknown spouse- 1 child
Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

The comment about reading the thread was not directed to you, mateer1987.

Since you are new to this I'm going to make a few suggestions to make things easier for both us and you.
1) don't keep inserting quotes into your replies. When quoting a message with one or more quotes in in it very quickly becomes more difficult to read
2) give us complete details to save us from wasting time. For example, you said Joseph born 1910 but exact date is important and should be mentioned
3) online trees can be useful to find clues but all details need to be verified (my last post gave example of Edward Mateer having 2 wives named Annie both mother of same two sons which makes no sense)

I responding to hallmark, not you, mateer1987, I posted the link because you are new and wouldn't know doing so could be useful.
