      I just entered William "Bill" Daniel Carter's obituary and also his wife's. I also found their marriage on genealogybank.com They married at the Mount Vernon Methodist Church in Washington, D.C. She was a Navy Yeoman at the time, on 30 Mar 1945. I'm wondering if he might have been working in D.C.?? and that's how they met as her parents lived in Martinsville at the time.
