    Notes 
    • Per Keith McGuire Jr, Ellen was born and raised in Dewey County, OK, with the exception of the the summer of 1914 to 1915, when she instead resided at a farm in Alexandria, LA. In 1922, Ellen moved with her mother and younger sister to Oklahoma City, where they lived with brother Percy and his family. They later moved to Hurley, NM to live with her brother Elvis, moving with Elvis to Illinois in 1924.

      In the 1930's, Ellen followed her father, Henry, and brothers Percy and Keith to Idaho, where their families worked on the construction of an irrigation canel. Ellen later moved to Nevada, and married Harry Mathews in Panaca. They divorced.

      She later married Ralph Elliott "Blackie" Hamilton, in August 1946, in Idaho. The couple homesteaded two properties in Nevada, east of Caliente, and when Blackie died in August 1968, Ellen obtained the both titles.

      Ellen was a painter, and during Christmas, 1969, she sent her nephew, Keith McGuire an oil landscape painting he and his wife Daisy had admired with they visited her in 1966, when he husband was ill. Keith and Daisy kept it prominently displayed the remainder of their lives.

      She moved to Hatch, NM. After being diagnosed with cancer, she went to live with her brother Cecil in Mesa. She was treated for her cancer in Phoenix, where she died in 1970.
