I'm fairly certain that Kappa Alpha Theta closed to recolonize in the late 1980s or early 1990s.

A qualification of ADPi closing in the 1940s: The entire chapter quit school to help with the war effort. After WWII, the chapter recolonized with a bang!

ETA: I just reread the original post. Is your "aunt" Maybelle Meals?

I've seen situations in my Fraternity (Alpha Phi Omega) and others where this happened and the Fraternity didn't consider the chapter inactive, especially since a significant number of brothers came back in the 1945-46 school year and picked up where they left off.
