Note: Her birth date on her tombstone is inaccurate. She was born in 1874 although she claimed she was born in 1886, dropping her age by 12 years. (The King family had a habit of changing their birth dates and birth places and sometimes their names.)
Mattie Edna King Bailey was born February 6, 1874, or maybe later, to William Edward "Eddie" King and Margret "Maggie" J. Edwards King in Robeson County, North Carolina. (The family had a habit of changing their birth dates and birth places and sometimes their names.) Edna was raised in Robeson County, North Carolina and Dillon County, South Carolina and had at least seven siblings. Around 1896 she married Walter Clemmon Bailey, and they had seven children: Walter Kit Bailey, Bertie Bailey Grant, Mattie Bailey Guiton, Romie Rendo Bailey, Lewis Bailey, Lewis Evans Bailey, and Clifford Ernest Bailey. Edna and her family were living in Rockfish, Cumberland County, North Carolina in 1930. In 1935 they lived in Saint Paul's, Robeson County, and by 1940 they lived in Lumberton, Robeson County. She died at age 70 on August 14, 1944 in East Lumberton, Robeson County and is buried by her husband, whom she predeceased, in Hollywood Cemetery in Lumberton.
Thanks so much to her sister Nettie King Neely Riley and other King family researchers for much of this information. Thanks to "Just Plain Nosy" for creating this site. Any errors here, however, are mine alone. Please go to the "edit" link on this site with any corrections or additions. If a closer relative than I would like to manage this burial site, please let me know.
