About Mathias McGlammery
- Mathias (Mathew or Matt) McGlammery married Lydia (Lincoln) Bryan. She was previously married to Hannah Bryan (s/b Benjamin Bryan) and they had one child. It appears that Mathias and Lydia had two daughters, Sarah and Bathsheba by this union. Lydia was left all property and possessions as a life estate, then it went to Sarah and her husband John Wray, again, as a life estate. Since no further provisions were made it would be assumed that the property ascends from them. (Mathias McGlamery’s will was probated on July 15, 1817) Mathias birth date was approximately 1753 (*??) and he married Lydia about 1770. Lydia lived with John and Sarah after Mathias’s death.
- Note: since Mathias acquired land in 1770, he had to have reached adulthood, so he was likely born earlier, perhaps abt. 1745-1748.
