I believe that Betty Kimsey was actually Frances Elizabeth Kimsey. Frances first married Willis Isaac McMahon Aug 30, 1941. Willis was apparently killed in action during WWII on 12 June 1945 in the Philippines.

Betty or Frances Elizabeth next married a person named Bill Thatcher. Nothing firm could be found on Bill, except his name which was included in Betty obituary. He was living when she died.

How do I know that Frances Elizabeth was Betty? It was so stated in her obituary. The topic sentence started with the statement "Frances Elizabeth (Kimsey) Thatcher, she was know as Betty."

Betty died 7 Jan 2001 in Anacortes, Skagit, Washington. It is thought the Betty's body was cremated because her obituary was in the care of the Neptune Society, which is a cremation organization.
