      Identified as Stacey Vance Douglass, 35, b. Jun 16 1896 in Doddridge Co, res. Clarksburg (Harrison Co), son of Thomas Pinnell Douglass & Frances (Ireland) Douglass; and Mildred Pearl Bennett, 25, b. Nov 29 1907 in Harrison Co, res. Clarksburg, dau of Orie Bennett & Maggie (Sommerville) Bennett. Married Apr 9 1932 in Clarksburg. (NOTE: The birthdate of Stacey Douglass is shown in the 1900 Census to be June 1893, and in SSDI to be Jun 16 1893. It appears that he provided the wrong year for his marriage record to minimize the age difference with his bride.)
