I put Belleville, but the obit lists "Gimlet" as her place of death.
Aunt Mary, one of the children of John Hewitt Mills and Temperance "Tempy" Daniel Mansfield, was the wife of Thomas "Uncle Tom" Alexander Sullivan.
Their child, Mattie Ray Sullivan (b. 16 April 1901), married Bernice Oscar Brown on 10 November 1924 in LCT. She died in Mimosa on 1 February 1938.
Bernice was the son of Robert Whitfield "Whitt" Brown and Annie Leona Brown, who was probably a distant cousin.
Mary's father married twice, so there are lots of half-relatives to her credit.
