That information looks fantastic.  I'm looking through IGI now, thanks to your lead.

In 1861 census (I think it was) Matthew was working as a miller and living near his brother (Sam?) who had employed several of his children as servants and laborers.  It looks like Sam was the one who inherited/married into/bought a large farm in the area. 

In fact Matthew is my 3gg-grandfather.  The names Thomas, Henry, and Sam re-occur regularly in the family.

Yes, please send any info you find.  It is a great starting point.

Thanks,
Barb
