Walter Edmund Matthew (26 February 1848 – 19 February 1889) was an Anglican archdeacon in India in the second half of the 19th century.[1]

Matthew was born in Cambridge and educated at Merchant Taylor's[2] and St John's College, Oxford where he matriculated in 1866,[3] graduating BA in 1870 and MA in 1873.[4] He was ordained deacon in 1871, and priest in 1872.[5] After a curacy at Christ Church, Camden[6] he was Archdeacon of Colombo and the incumbent at St Paul, Kandy[7] from 1875. He died, in post, at Talawakelle.

Two of his sons[8] also became clergymen: Herbert Edmund Matthew,[9] who died at Keswick in 1944;[10] and Leonard Arthur Matthew,[11] who died at Sydney in 1964.[12]
