Life History

Notes

• In 1954, Ruth was reported as the wife of Uberta Briscoe.  But in 1956, she is not listed with Uberta.  No other name was known other than Ruth.  Other records seem to fit and match Ruth Yvette Danny.  This may not be the same Ruth, as no marriage record has been found.  But one of the changes of name on her SS record was to Ruth Briscoe, and this was her burial name.

  It appears that Ruth and Uberta divorced.  He remarried agian in 1964.  But no marriage or divorce record has been found for Ruth, nor a marriage record for Uberta and his third wife Lula.
  
  This may be Ruth's gravestone.
