  • Notes 
    • Matthew Woodburn was a timber merchants manager (persumably in Londonderry) at a firm called Keys.

      This is possibly the Matthew Woodburn who is listed in the 1901 Census as a 24-year-old bookkeeper (Presbyterian, born in County Antrim?) who is a boarder in the home of Thomas Nelson, house #4, Irish Street, Strabane, County Tyrone. He is the Matthew of Derry referred to in his father's will.

      In the 1911 Census 40-year-old timber clerk Matthew Woodburn (Presbyterian, born in County Derry) and his 31-year-old wife Lila Woodburn (married 9 years, Presbyterian, born in County Tyrone) were living in house #55, Beechwood Avenue, Londonderry, with their two children, Hilda and Olga. Matthew Woodburn of 76 (formerly 55) Beechwood Avenue, Londonderry, a retired manager died on Jun.13, 1936, at the age of 68 at Clarendon Nursing Home, Londonderry, leaving his estate to his wife Lila Woodburn.
