      William D. "Dee" Mattingly, 91, of Evansville, Indiana, passed away Tuesday,
      March 13, 2007, at Deaconess Hospital.
      Dee, a native of Evansville, Indiana, was a 1932 graduate of Memorial High School. After graduation he joined the C.C.C., Civilian Conservation Corps and was sent to camp in California. Upon his return to Evansville he met his future wife, Mary Louise Hofman and they were married in 1940. In 1944, Dee was drafted into the United States Navy and was one of the first to be assigned into the famous Seabees during World War II. After service he worked for Servel Manufacturing. He later went to work for the United States Postal Service and retired after 30 years of service. Family was his main priority in life and Dee always chose a work schedule that permitted him to be active in his children's lives. Dee was a charter member of St. Theresa Catholic Church.

      He is survived by daughter and son-in-law, Judie Ann Turner and her husband, Jerry, of Evansville; sons and daughters-in-law, Randy Charles Mattingly and his wife, Melissa, of Henderson, Ky., and Michael J.

      Mike,
      Don Mattingly is a MD to KY Mattingly at least 3 times that I can think of. His father was born in Evansville, IN in 1915 not long after his family moved there from Beantown in Marion Co., KY. Beantown is located not far from St. Charles Church. Some of Don's father's older siblings were born in Marion Co. and have told me that they spent their summers in Marion Co. while they were going up, staying with relatives. They especially remembered riding in a horse and buggy over the Hardin's Creek bridge to attend church at St. Charles

      He comes out of
      Joseph "The Wheelwright" Mattingly and Hessy Hinton
      John Amos Mattingly who married Mary Daily
      William Albin Mattingly who married Sarah Jane Rhodes
      Daniel Columbus Mattingly who married Elizabeth Bean
      Joseph Archibald Mattingly who married Carrie Wells
      William Daniel Columbus Mattingly who married Mary Louise Hoffman
      Donald "Don" Mattingly, the New York Yankee.

      He also comes out of
      Susannah Mattingly who married Bennett Daily
      Anastasia Mattingly who married Cornelius Rhodes

      I am by no means an expert on Don Mattingly however, I have gathered a bit on his family because of pressures from my own children and numerous cousins. Don is descended from Joseph Mattingly and Hessina Hinton. He is the youngest of six children as follows:

      Parents:
      William Daniel Columbus Mattingly 6-7-1915
      Mary Louise Hofman 9-20-1921
      Children:
      Judy Ann 2-5-1941
      Jerome Daniel 7-21-1946
      Mary Theresa 5-2-1950
      Randolph Charles 5-15-1951
      Michael Jay 8-2-1955
      Donald Arthur 4-20-1961

      Don and his wife, Kim have three sons that I know of: Taylor, Preston, and Jordan.
