| Polly Pearl Pitman and son Edgar |
Polly Turpin was born 3 July 1884 in Newport, Nebraska. Before the age of 23, she was doing the Turpin thing – heading for new horizons!
She married John H. Pitman in Helena, Lewis and Clark County, Montana on 18 April 1907 according to the Montana Marriages at familysearch.com. And we discover that their marriage record shows that she was a divorcee at the time. So there is more research to do there! No record of a first marriage is found in Rock County, Nebraska. In her mother Mary Ellen’s obituary in 1926, it states Polly's name as Polly Pearl Watson, of Port Angeles, Washington. That might indicate a third marriage but it seems unlikely. Very confusing though!
