Glenn Frazier and Helen Rex met at one of her high school dances. She graduated in 1931. They courted for several years.
In mid-1937 Helen traveled to California where Glenn was living and working. Soon after her return to Randolph the following appeared in a Rich County newspaper.
Its presumed Glenn and Helen are standing in front of their Derby Street, Oakland, California address listed in the following Draft Registration.
Glenn was good at checkers. He loved to tell us he'd won our mother Helen's hand in marriage by winning her mother Bessie Morgan Rex in a game of checkers.
Glenn certainly looks content having dozed off reading the current Life Magazine. Note his need for a new pair or shoes, or new shoe soles.
In 1941 Glenn and Helen hosted her family (PH Rex, Mary, Morgan, Maeser, Flora) for Thanksgiving Dinner in their apartment.
One night walking home from the movies an unknown photographer snapped this unsolicited picture of Glenn and Helen walking in the cold. Note Helen's hands tucked into the sleeves of her brown wool coat topped with a velvet collar.
This newly discovered document shared by Family Search instigated this Post. It told me several things I hadn't yet learned about my parents' lives in Oakland. It needed to be saved and shared.
Helen and some friends in Oakland shared a social the year she and Glenn moved from there to Woodruff, Utah.
Glenn and Helen are sitting on the floor front and center at a Young Marrieds Halloween Party in Oakland probably days before they began their move to Woodruff, Utah. They spent Halloween night at a motel in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Their children Rex and Bessie are waiting for public transportation in Oakland. Please note the coats they are wearing. Made by their Great Aunt Maude Frazier Eastman. She picked apart and refashioned adult wool coats she then sewed from the usable pieces for children. We were lucky recipients of more than one of her lovely coats. Mine may have been fashion from the coat Helen wore ten years earlier--velvet collar and all.
