This is all that was found.No census, death, family.
John K MATHEWSON enl USN 6-13-1865 Baltimore MD, ordinary seaman; deserted 4-12-1867; b Australia; resided Allegany Co MD; dark complexion/lite hair/blue eyes; 5' 3 1/2"; has had smallpox
If he actually deserted he may have changed his name, or returned to Australia.You may also may not want his name on your vets memorial.
There is a John MATHEWSON chr 3-27-1840 Melbourne, s/o Robert/Barbara.
But I would imagine there is more than 1 John b 1840.
