Hi Chatters

Looking for a marriage to try fathom a DNA connection. Limited details but it is the wife I am interested in.

Basic details from limited tree, don't know if correct. Only have UK sub.

Alton Barber Stroup 19 OCT 1914 • Chandler, Lincoln, Oklahoma.  DEATH 3 JUL 2009 • Tucson, Arizona

Gwen (Anne?) Davies about 1920 Wales. Death 1978 • Newport Beach, California

Looking for info on her marriage, birthyear and hopefully area of Wales so can try trace her back

With Thanks if you can help
