Daughter of Thomas F. Matthews and Maude Becker Matthews.
Did not marry until she was 42.
Married; Kenneth Little, Anderson County, Texas Feb. 24, 1968.

Family source tells me that when his daughter Hazel was 18-19, she was killed in an automobile accident in 1938, Tom F. would not allow his other daughters to date or leave the house.
Tom F. died Jan 15, 1968.
So Lillian married in Feb.

I knew these girls or women at the time when I was a kid, we went to the same church. Tabernacle church at Redtown.
They were very quaint. I really liked them.
