Mathias Angel emigrated to Vanderburgh County with his parents in the early 1820s from Surry County, North Carolina.
The farmstead was built sometime in the 1830s or 40s, on land owned by the Lane family.
It was not until 1852 that Mathias Angel purchased the property from Simon Lane.
Mathias Angel and his family lived on the farmstead until his death in 1899. The property remained within the family until the farmstead was salvaged for building materials in the early 1900s.
The movement of the Angel family into Indiana was part of a larger migration into the Old Northwest from the Upland South that occurred during that period. The settlement pattern of Mathias Angel and his brothers followed the typical Upland South model. They settled in adjacent farmsteads, reflecting the importance of the extended kin group as a communal labor unit. Mathias' varied occupations during his life (farmer, grocer, flat boater) also reflected the diversified subsistance base common among Upland South settlers. Emigrants from the Upland South formed the majority of early settlers in southern Indiana.

The graves removed to Park Lawn Cemetery in the 1960's.
