  Jackie and Stephen are buried in Lancaster, California, where the accident occurred.  but no burial or even death record has been found for Jackie.  It is possible she was recorded under the name Rousey.  The article announcing their death referred to her only as "their daughter," which led to the belief that Jackie was the daughter of Stephen.  However, the record of the first marriage was found only some time later.
  
  A search for a matching child under the name Rousey did turn up a matching burial, and the Find a Grave memorial reprots that Dawn Marie Rousey is buried next to Stephen and Jackie Spann, and has the same date of death (only the year).  This indicates the newspaper go tthe name of the daughter wrong, repeating her mother's name.
  
  The death informaiton was submitted ot the Find a Grave memorial for Jackie and Stephen.  Then the newly-discovered family informatoin was submitted.  For some reason, the updated cihld's name and family information were not added to the memorial, even though Jackie's maiden name was added.
  
  Jackie was born Jackie Dee Boyer.  At age 16 she married Archer Leroy Rousey on 07 Dec 1968 in Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, California.  They had a daughter name Dawn Marie, born 11 May 1970.  They were divorced in late 1970 or early 1971.  Jackie Dee Rousey married Stephen Byron Span on 8 October 1971.  Jackie and her husband and 3-year-old Dawn Marie all died in an automobile accident in Lancaster, Los Angeles County, California, on 16 September 1973. -- Source: article in the Redlands Daily Facts newspaper, Redlands (San Bernardino County, California), Sep 17 1973.  Dawn Marie is buried beside her mother and stepfather.
