MARRIAGE:

A record of the marriage of this Mary B. Kimball to Ralph E. Hatstat, April 9, 1920 in Maine.^[1]

A second, more detailed record of Mary Blanch Belzano Kimball marrying Ralph Edward Hatstat, April 9, 1920 in Oxford, Maine. She was 18yrs old at the time. This record says she was born in Lewiston, (Lincoln), Maine and that her mother was Blanch E. Kimball, born in Lewiston. NOPTE: This record is screwed up as it relates to the parents. It has what is likely Mary's parents entered as Ralph's.^[2]

See 1930 US Census source that suggests this person lied about her age when marrying Ralph as the 1930 census source says she indicated she married Ralph at age 14.

See 1940 US Census source that says she was born in Maine and that in 1940 she was 36yrs old.
