Notes for Wales Scotland & Eunice Alene (Family)
The Kentucky marriage index lists the marriage on 30 Apr 1992 in Rowan Co., Ky of Wales Black, age 93, to Eunice A. Toy, age 55. It is recorded as his third marriage, the first ended by death and the second ended by divorce, and her second marriage, the first ended by death.
Her first marriage, to James Toy, apparently really ended in divorce, though, because the obituary of their daughter Reginia lists her father as surviving.
