Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, April 17, 1890 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - In this village, April 13, 1890, Jeremiah Angell Mathewson, aged 84 years and 5 months. Mr. Mathewson, who was named after his father, was born in Hamilton, Madison County, September 17, 1805, and removed to Pulaski with his parents when but two years of age. He was therefore one of our oldest inhabitants. There are few persons, if, indeed, there are any now living who can give as much information regarding the early history of Pulaski as could the deceased. For many years he has lived mainly in the past, loving to relate his experiences when a young man. He kept careful records of the more important events, and those records Mr. Mathewson had, on many occasions, cheerfully furnished the editor of this journal when data was desired. For many years he owned and conducted the Pulaski house. His brothers were Arthur, Andrew and Charles, the latter of whom is now living at Ann Arbor, Michigan. Mrs. Mathewson died about six years since. His two children, Henry, who was a deaf mute, and Sarah, are also deceased. Mr. Mathewson died very suddenly and his death was not discovered until Sunday morning when his granddaughter, Miss Kittie Mathewson went to call him. Not answering, he was found to be quite dead. Dr. Low, who was summoned, thought that death must have ensued very soon after Mr. Mathewson retired. He had been much better of late and retired apparently in good health. The funeral was held at his residence on Tuesday afternoon at two o'clock.
