 Matthew Rector Tiffany (1904-1989)

Matthew Rector Tiffany (1904-1989). The photo was taken about 1921. He served from 1919-1923. He had 4 sisters who were all much older, and all school teachers, thus he finished his high school studies when he was 15 and immediately joined up with the Navy and was eventually assigned to the Texas. 

He served in WWII as well, aboard the USS Plymouth, which was sunk by a U-boat just about a month after he received his discharge in 1943.
