Narrative

Dwight's marital and family history is not entirely clear to me at this point, based on what seems to be at least three marriages.

The first I can find is a marriage record from 21 Dec 1944 in Huntington Cty, Indiana to Mary Margaret Gressley (b. 7 Jul 1924, d. 22 Oct 2012). The two of them had a son (Larry) and divorced at some point, as Mary remarried to Carl J. Burton (with whom she would have a daughter, Linda).

The next marriage I can find for Dwight is a record from 10 Dec 1953 in Montgomery Cty, Ohio to Norma Jeanne (Feigel) Hammett (b. 31 Aug 1921, d. 29 Aug 1969). Whether Norma was divorced or widowed from a previous marriage is unknown at this point, nor have I found information on whether they had children together or remained married until her death.

The next indication of another marriage is from his shared headstone with Marcella R. Porter (b. 3 Jun 1928, d. 13 Jun 1998). I have not found information on any previous marriage she may have had, and there seems to be indication that she remarried (to a man with the surname Kimble) in the years after Dwight's death. Given their presumed ages, it seems unlikely they had any children.

Thus far, the only child I have discovered for Dwight is his son Larry, from his first marriage.
