My mother was Ida Mae LLEWELLEN, and she married Howard W. MITTS. My Mother's mother was "Mattie" Elizabeth THEDFORD (or THETFORD), and she married Charley LEWELLYN. The THEDFORD's lived in Blytheville at the time my grandmother and grandfather met, and her father worked for the railroad. That's all I know. I'm not even sure about my grandmother's first name. Mattie is what the 1920 Census said, but my mother told me once that if anyone ever called her by her real name, she would be VERY IRRITATED! She never told my mother what it was - just that Mattie was her nickname or whatever you call it. She was an educated woman - at the time she married my grandfather - approximately around the 1900's, she had graduated from college. I imagine that was a real accomplishment in those days for a woman. I would appreciate any information you have regardless of whether you think it fits or not.
