- George_Matthews_(soldier) abstract "Captain George Matthews (1726-1798) was a signer of the 1790 Pennsylvania Constitution, a veteran of the Indian War in 1746, an ensign in the French Indian War in 1756-1764 under Captain Samuel Perry, a captain in the Revolutionary War under Colonel Joseph Armstrong, a justice of the peace in 1785, an Associate Judge, 1791-1794, commissioned by the first Governor of Pennsylvania, Thomas Mifflin, and a church trustee and elder of the Rocky Spring Presbyterian Church. A blacksmith by trade, Captain Matthews was born in Ireland, but resided in Hamilton Township, Franklin County, Pennsylvania until his death. Matthews served as a representative to the Pennsylvania 1789 Constitutional Conventional and subsequently signed the 1790 Constitution. After problems became apparent with the Constitution of 1776, a campaign to change the Pennsylvania constitution followed. The 1790 Constitution has been described as a “model” constitution resembling modern day constitutions. It provided a workable frame of government with effective checks and balances to protect citizens from arbitrary government action.".
