Thelma Elizabeth Childress (born October 9, 1926) was an All-American Girls Professional Baseball League player. She was born in Richmond, Virginia.[1]

Childress appears as a member of the Grand Rapids Chicks club during its 1946 season. Nevertheless, she did not have individual records or some information was incomplete.[1]

The AAGPBL folded in 1954, but there is a permanent display at the Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum at Cooperstown, New York since November 5, 1988, that honors the entire league rather than any individual figure.[2]

She was married to Allan Brewer Pedin (1925–72) and James Theodore Kinney (1920–83).[3]
