    2. Shelley Cardiel
    3. I've "rescued" an old photograph of the Martin MATTESON Family in front of their home. The photograph postcard was sent by "Leona" to Mrs. Luvern CARPENTER in Oxford, New York. The postcard has a postmark from Brisben, NY and is dated Nov 1903. Pictured in front of the house are a man, two woman, and two small children. Based on limited research and thanks to the assistance of a MATTESON Family Researcher I was able to gather the following information regarding this family: Martin MATTESON was the son of a Harry & Leona Matteson of Brisben, Chenango Co., NY; Martin had a daug Leona T. MATTESON born 1895. Census records for the family are as follows: 1900 census of Greene, NY: Martin C. MATTESON, age 44, born Dec 1855, married 12 years, born NY, parents born NY, a Farmer Mary A. MATTESON, wife, age 32, born Apr 1868, married 12 years, 1 child/1 living, born NY, parents born NY/England Leona T. MATTESON, dau, age 4, born June 1895, born NY 1910 census of Greene, NY: Martin C. MATTESON, age 54, married 22 years, born NY, parents born NY, a Teamster Mary A. MATTESON, wife, age 42, married 22 years, 3 children/3 living, born NY, parents born NY/England Leona T.

MATTESON, son, age 14, born NY I am hoping to locate someone from this MATTESON Family so that this wonderful old photograph can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of this family, or know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley
