He carried on his own butchering and often bought and sold for parties in the east. His business reached quite extensive proportions, becoming one of the leading commercial interests of this city. In August, 1851, in Lancaster, Mathias Thimmes was united in marriage to Louise Oatney, of this city. She was born in Fairfield county in February 1832, a daughter of Benedict and Christina (Houserine) Oatney. She is the only surviving member of his father's family with the exception of Mrs. Emma T.
