My gggrandmother was a Naughton from Drum, which is what we would call a village a few miles from Athlone. I have a book called Drum and its Hinterland by the Drum Heritage Group.

They list names on gravestones which are in alphabetical order. Otherwise there is not an index. They list more ways of spelling Naughton than you do -Naghten, Natthin, Nocton, etc. and O'Naughten, etc.

I would be happy to look up someone for you,but I did not see a Matthew Naughton.
