Daughter of Joseph Andrew Gillilan and Ida J. Henson. Her siblings were Charles R. and Winnie Ethel Gillilan. Her mother died when she was 6. She and her siblings were raised by her father and stepmother. My father told me the children did not care for their stepmother and her sister, Ethel, lived with their grandparents for a number of years. Maybelle married Wylie Erastus Long on 28 Jun 1918 in Erath County, Texas. They had 6 children. She was a talented seamstress who never needed a pattern.
