Dear Louise Dewitt, I do not know anyone you have named but just wanted to let you know that there was a place called Moultrie Courts in Blytheville in the 60's and many people lived there for weeks at a time. It was not just an overnight motel. Perhaps the Chamber of Commerce can help. Good hunting, Peggy
