Biography

Marian Sword was born in 1911 in Lanark, Carroll Co., IL.1 She married George A. Pease on 3 December 1938 in Maquoketa, Jackson Co., IA; second marriage for both parties. Marian was "Mrs. Marian Lambert" -- can't find a record of the first marriage or Mr. Lambert's first name. Based on these circumstances, it appears unlikely that George Pease was the biological father of Marian's two daughters, Sandra and Georgia, although they took the Pease surname. DLB 2020.
Marian Sword lived on 5 April 1940 in Cedarville, Stephenson Co., CA.2
