Joe Lyles BARNES & Mary Magdalene WHALEN

Husband: Joe Lyles BARNES, b. ABT 1890, Missouri

Birth year taken from 1920 Census when he is 30.Mary divorced Joe Lyles Barnes. It has been said that he was abusive. No date of divorce but certainly prior to her marriage to Warren Brophy. And Joseph remarried in 1928 so the divorce was final by that time. Also while the index calls him Joe Barnet, actual marriage record reveals his name was Barnes. It was transcribed incorrect

He remarries again in 1928 so the marriage is over by then. It was said he was very abusive to her and she only stayed married to him less than a year. This aunt of mine had no children but was pregnant at one time and had a miscarriage when she was in a car accident. Despite the fact that she was married three times she was very independent.and considered her second husband Glenn Warren Brophy to be the love of her life. She herself was one of the few women aviators of her time and learned to fly in Arizona where her second husband Glenn Warren Brophy owned and operated a flight school. She followed her husband to China in the 1930's and I recall seeing many items she bought and gifted people with that she bought in China. Warren disappeared in March of 1931 while flying from Macao China to Manilla Phillipes. After his death she at one point married her third husband Henry Ross Robertson He predeceased her.. She died in Albuquerque New Mexico where she had moved with her husband Ross whom I remember fondly. They loved to travel.Mary ROBERTSON Birth Date: 19 Jun 1904 Death Date: 7 Jan 1995 Social Security Number: Blocked out State or Territory Where Number Was Issued: Missouri Death Residence Localities ZIP Code: 87108 Localities: Albuquerque, Bernalillo, New Mexico
