  • Notes 
    • According to Robert Riley Woodburn's death certificate, his father's name was Matthew and his mother's name was Isabel Brown. According to the International Genealogical Index (IGI) of the Church of Jesus Christ Latter Day Saints, a Matthew Woodburn and Isabel Brown lived in Londonderry, Coleraine, N. Ireland in the 1860's and they had six children (Robert is not listed). Matthew's name may also have been spelled "Mathew Woodburne". According to the recollection of Nancy Gosser Rosenblatt, Robert Riley came from Coleraine so it is assumed that this is the correct Matthew Woodburn.

      According to a record obtained by The Genealogy Centre, Derry, NI, from 1st Garvagh Presbyterian Church, a Matthew Woodburn, son of Matthew Woodburn, was baptised on August 1, 1825 in 1st Garvagh Presbyterian Church. This may have been Matthew Wood Woodburn, although the dates do not match up.

      According to information obtained from The Genealogy Centre, Derry, NI, Matthew Woodurn was a grocer in the town of Coleraine (per the birth records of several of their children). He and his wife Isabella Brown lived on North Brook Street, Coleraine, from at least 1864 to at least 1867 (per the birth records of several of their children). They later lived on Railway Place, Coleraine from at least 1872 (per the birth records of several of their children).

      According to the 1901 Irish Census, Matthew, age 73, was a widower living with two of his children, Agnes Wilson and Alexander, at Railray Place, Colerained, NI in 1901.

      The following probate record abstract was taken from the website of the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland, Londonderry Registry (2009) (http://www.proni.gov.uk/view_Will.htm?willId=86349&strReturn=listWill.asp?nListType=1&strOrder=ID&bDesc=1&nPage=6175):

      "Probate of the Will of Matthew Wood Woodburn late of Railway-place Coleraine County Londonderry Retired Grocer who died 26 January 1903 granted at Londonderry to Agnes W.Brewster Married Woman."

      Matthew is shown to have had effects valued at £141 15s. 11d.
