May 26,1902) He was born in Huntingdon Co. He and his father and family went to Van Buren Co. Iowa in 1841, then he returned to school and married Miss Catherine Steward ( b. about 1822 d. abt Dec 1891 at age 69) who also was born in Huntingdon Co. Children of theirs included, Alice, George, Mary, E.S., F.H., Lina Cresswell Brady, Anna, Eminger, Sheridan, John, and Ida Cresswell Walker. A brother of Matthew's was Robert Cresswell and 2 sisters; Mrs. Newlon and Martha Cresswell Goesler. Any information would be very helpful, as I have been searching for this for several years with very little luck. I found the above information by sheer luck in Van Buren Co. Iowa. but don't have any other information. Eminger Cresswell is my Great Great Grandfather
