Gladys Maybell Miley was the daughter of Everett William Miley & Ella Beulah "Eller" Winters. Her parents married on Dec. 25, 1898 in Scott Co., Arkansas. They divorced about 1912.
Gladys was married 4 known times. Her first marriage was to William Jess Edward Huie on April 19, 1917 in Sebastian Co., Arkansas. They had 2 children before they divorced about 1927.
Gladys then married Rufus Van Cosby on May 13, 1929 in Crawford Co., Arkansas. Rufus lied about his age on his marriage record. He was 18 years old but stated that he was 22. The marriage was a short one ending in divorce. The 1930 Arkansas Census, Sebastian Co., Fort Smith, shows Gladys living with her mother and stepfather (Ella & Joseph Roam). Gladys was listed as Gladys Cosby and her 2 children, Louise & Albert Huie, were listed with her. The marital status for Gladys was shown as widowed but she was still married to Rufus Van Cosby at this time. He was listed on the 1930 census in Newby, Creek Co., Oklahoma living with his parents. His marital status was shown as married. They divorced shortly after the 1930 census was taken.
Gladys then married a 3rd time to James E. Logan "Jim" Winters on June 15, 1931 in Crawford Co., Arkansas. He was listed as "Jim Winters" on the marriage record. They divorced a few years later. Jim may have been a cousin to Gladys. His surname was the same as Gladys' mother and he was from Scott Co., Arkansas, like her mother.(Jim's name was shown as "James Logan Winters" when he married his last wife, Edna Viola (Granger) Rainwater in 1941. His ex-brother-in-law, Elmer Miley, brother of Gladys, was listed as the surety on his marriage bond to Edna.)
Gladys married her 4th husband, Earl Ray Mike, on May 13, 1938 in Crawford Co., Arkansas. They appear together on the 1940 Arkansas Census, Sebastian Co., Fort Smith. They were divorced by 1945.
It is unknown if Gladys married any more times. At the time of her death, she was using the "Huie" surname.
Gladys' headstone shows her name as "Gladys M. Huie". It incorrectly shows her year of birth as 1904. She was born in 1900 per her Social Security Death Index record and early census records.
