Hi All, I don't know if she is connected but Mattoon seems to be a strange name. I have a David Mills b. June 30, 1852 who married a Julia Mattoon on Jan. 1, 1873, age 20 (VVR). I have not idea who she belongs too. Just the kids of this marriage. (ref. Betty Post manuscript on the Early Mills of VT.)
