Notes: Marriage (Janice Marie Douglas):
His obituary states marriage of 57 years, and that's consistent with a Jun. 12, 1965 marriage date at 57-yrs., 9-mos. 22-dys. Thus, I use it as the official marriage date. Oddly, they have three different marr. records; they're exactly the same individuals as in their Jun. 12, 1965 marr. Danville, Va. All were of legal age, and on Feb. 15, 1963, she was 18-yrs. 5-mos. 22-dys., so there was no reason to annul, and no divorces found. The 1963 record, is a transcription, and matches the details; thus, #1 could be a bad transcription and should have been 1964, but one can't mistake a 3 for a 4 and vice-versa, plus, the source citations also references 1963 and 1964 as separate years of archives. #2 shows marriage by a Justice of the Peace, while #3 is a Min.;1st marr.
