Thankyou for the information slowhands

I was hoping to find some mention of William Matthews, who's year of birth was, I believe, 1779. His birthday may have been 3rd March.

Please see my response to your earlier post re Wynols Hill House c1800.
Was that post also looking for William Matthews ?

Indeed it was! Have you found any trace of him?
