I believe this is Josephine Lavier's marriage to Ernest Shekell. In 1930 US Census she is in the household of her daughter Emma (Baker) Irwin with her grandchildren and her name is Josephine Shekell (a widow). In 1920 US Census she is in Ernest Shekell household. Perhaps Lavier (spoken with a French accent) sounds like Letchr to an untrained ear. They are both two syllable L words....
