Re: Advocate Cemetery

Marjorie:

This E. Marie (Hazel) Morris was m/1 28 Oct 1946 Advocate to Merton Emery
Morris and later divorced.

Marie¹s rumored to have had a relationship with Frederick Garfield Strong
which is were her daughter, Marchel Strong (Mrs. Robert Berry) comes from.
Don¹t know if this was what broke up the marriage or not.

Frederick Garfield Strong was also married to Nettie Pearl Sweet.
