We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a class of row-decreasing infinite matrices to be partially well-ordered with regard to the component-wise ordering. Then, using these matrices, we determine all the classes of abelian groups, closed under taking subgroups, direct limits, and isomorphic groups.
