Surnames: Halsey, Phipps Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/jAC.2ACE/638.2.1.2.1 Message Board Post: In the 1920 census four of those five are still with the Halseys: Victoria (who I think is Mattie V.), Joseph M., Kilby, and Margie L. The oldest daughter in 1910, Hattie E., is now (in 1920) the wife of Howard Smith, and a Mettie B. Phipps, age 18, sister-in-law, is living with them. This is why I don't think Mattie is Mettie. If she is, why is called Mettie B. Phipps and not Halsey in the household of her sister, and who is the Victoria now showing up in the Halsey family? Mazie only had five living children in 1910, all with her, so Victoria could not have been a daughter living somewhere else in 1910. I think. Like I said this family is confusing.
