Hi Nancy, Ellen Loretta Mattingly Elsey is in some pictures my mother got from my Grandma Bea Mattingly Bowling. Loretta was her half-sister. This Mattingly line has been kind of elusive for me. John Hillary Mattingly and Elizabeth F. Bellwood had 8 children, she died and in 1890 he married my gr-grandmother, Maria Angeline Yoder when she was 15 and he was 50. John Hillary Mattingly died in 1909 and Mary Yoder Mattingly died in 1952. The 8 children of John and Elizabeth were: Mary J. b 1863 Anna D. b 1865 Henry Sylvester b. 1868 m. Laura J. Gootee Elizabeth b 1871 m. Jule Courtot Martha Emma b. 1874 m. Aldo Blough Clara Jane b. 1877 m. Charles E. Hunter Ellen Loretta b. ? m. Isaac N. Elsey John Francis b. 1885 m. Flavilla Decker The children of John Hillary Mattingly and Maria Angeline Yoder were: Mary Agnes "Minnie" m. Clyda Alpha Taylor Charles Joseph m. Maude Fenters William Stanislaus m. Ruth V.

Elsey. He died 4-26-1952 in Martin Co. Born: 15 Apr 1871 in Martin Co. Male, white, divorced, retired farmer. Buried: Wood Cemetery - Perry Twp. This cemetery is on the right before you get to Bogg's Lake restaurant. Parents; Edward M. Elsey & Angeline Sanders He and his parents all have tombstones in Wood Cemetery. Also five infant Elseys. Don't know who they belong to. About Wm. A. Strange. In 1930 he was living in Evansville, IN. His father died 1930 in Evansville and is buried St. Joseph's at Bramble. The mother of Wm. died in 1960. Buried at St. Joseph's. William (Addis) Strange died in Anaheim, CA. (Orange Co. CA) 9-10- 1977. Went to Martin Co. Health Dept., today and tried to find birth certificate for Betty Strange. They couldn't find one. I am beginning to think that Wm. A. Strange wasn't the father. But her mother was married to him in 1919. I think the Wm. A., skipped out and left her and maybe Betty belonged to some other man in the neighborhood. Will try to find something more on Ellen Loretta Mattingly.
