Matthew lived in The Middle Brick, one of The Three Bricks by his father Joseph Starbuck. In 1850 Matthew was deeded the property at 95 Main Street from his father. In 1876, he died intestate and the property passed to his wife Catherine Starbuck and their four children. Also in 1876, Catherine purchased all interest from their children. Maria Starbuck Mackay purchased the shares in the house from her siblings in 1815. After her death in 1920, her daughter Pauline M. Smith inherited the property from her mother. In 1948, Pauline Smith Freeman was deeded the property by her mother Pauline M.(Smith) Johnson. (from the Prospect Hill Cemetery website)
