Maybelle Montgomery Gilliland (January 23, 1906 – February 1, 1971) was a Canadian-born American athlete in track events in the 1920s and early 1930s.
[3] Gilliland was a teenager when she set the American record for the 100-yard dash, and qualified in the trials held at Mamaroneck, New York, for the United States team for the 1922 Women's World Games, together with her high school teammate Elizabeth Stine.
At the AAU women's outdoor nationals in 1929, held in Chicago, she tied the world record time for the 220-yard dash.
[13] Gilliland retired from track sports in 1933,[14] but continued competing in tennis tournaments past that year.
Then a resident of Lakehurst, New Jersey, she died in 1971, at the age of 65, while visiting her sister in Dunedin, Florida.
