Betty Jane Miller b6 Jul 1924 d 25 Aug 2006
« on: Monday 02 July 18 11:32 BST (UK) »
The above was the daughter of Frederick A Miller(and who had a brother Frederick E bc1926)  and Jane Minerva Craven (whose was previously married to  Raymond Smith 1888-1918), with Raymond she had 3 children, one of whom Ilene bc 1911 I can't find after 1920 census?
I found a very good obit on find my grave for Betty showing loads of children but am at a loss as to who belongs to her 1st husband, Howard E Morton whom she m in 1943 and divorced 13 Nov 1951 but with whom she'd had 6 children and who belongs to Charles Clyde Harrington whom she m 7 Jun 1952. I can place 3 as Harringtons' and 2 as Mortons' as they're named but what of the others?
Also like to know about Frederick E Miller after 1940 and when Jane married Fred A Miller?

Obituary for Betty J Morton - wife of "L" - She was born in Brown City October 2, 1949, the daughter of the late H. Paton and Bina Rollins.

Husband "L" was a Morton.

Son"H" (with wife "N") in the obituary was a Morton.

Daughter "R" H was born 5 June 1947 so should be a Morton.

Hi Sandra you're researching well again, only need 2 more Morton children and do you know what Gloria's husband's Christian name was?

I was on 5 Morton so far - what do you thnk ?

Gloria
M (wife of Edward Avers)
R because she was born 1947
Howard Morton
"L" husband of Betty J Morton nee Paton

I think the daughter "B" might be a Harrington born 1954  ??? Which would leave daughter "N" as a Morton  ??? Sent you a link on the "B" lady and the "N" lady - see what you think.

Could be wrong of course.  ;)

Fred says on the 1930 census he was first married at 40 years - so they had been married 9 years by that census
