Mattie is the daughter of James Talbert Helms and Theresa Florence "Flonnie" Carelock. She was born in Monroe, Union county, NC the first of 7 children, 6 of them girls. She is a sister to Bedie E, Sarah Wilma Helms Gordon, Julia, unnamed infant girl, Blanche Helms Copenhaven and James Vernon Helms.

Mattie was admitted to the asylum several years before her death. Her brother, James Vernon, also died here, in 1917 after an 8 month stay. He was diagnosed with dementia praecox (schizophrenia).

There are other Mattie/Martha Helms in the record but their dates are considerably off and her brother's being here makes it more likely the identification given above is correct.
