Hendges, Matthew
Matthew Hendges (1852 - February 5, 1932) was an American draftsman. Born in Prussia, Hendges immigrated to the United States in 1880. By 1885, he lived in Washington, D.C., and worked for the General Land Office (GLO) as a draftsman. At some point, he became a naturalized U.S. citizen, but we have been unable to find a record of when this happened. He worked for the GLO until at least 1924. He died in Bad Homburg, Germany.
