Default Match Question

I'm using three seperate Match functions to find three items in Column A to
get the row they are on.
The first match is returning the right row number, 10. =MATCH("Ben
Franklin",A:A)
However, the second and third are not:
=MATCH("OHAC",A:A,1) returns 24 but is on row 36
=MATCH("Mister Sparky",A:A) returns 21 but is on row 50
I need the OHAC to return 36 and Mister Sparky to return 50

All three match functions are in column J
They all refer to range A:A.
Any help would be appreciated!
