This doesn't fit your facts, unless the two for some reason separated/divorced. The only reference to a Matt(hew) Keefe I found in the 1874-1922 Post Dispatch archives available from the SLCL.org website was a 1904 article that mentioned a minstrel singer named Matt Keefe. [I did find a Jennie Keefe in both the death certificates and obituaries for Feb 1920, but she was married to a David Keefe according to the death certificate.] Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
