  • Name Viola Helen Rice Marney 
    • I am uncertain of her parents/maiden name. It indicates Rice, yet she has brothers with the last name of Stamp. I have done some research but have not found anything conclusive to indicate specifics. Therefore, I have not added her siblings to her family tree at this point as they may be half-siblings.
