Has anyone noticed my missing Mathewsons? I am looking for Frank and Elisha Mathewson ages 3 and 6 probably buried in the same coffin in about 1862. The parents were Elizabeth and Lewis Mathewson who are buried in Owego. I found Minerva Elliott . She is buried in McKean County Pa. She must have married Chester Coleman sometime after she moved out of the Mathewson home. Is anyone aware of any epidemics in the Owego area in about 1862. Do newspapers mention any train wrecks or tragedies in the area? Somthing big happened to the Mathewson family between 1862 and 1869 . It may have involved the Elliott family of Dryden and the Civil War. I am checking Broome Tioga and Tompkins County for the information Thanks for any help Linda
