She had several husbands; those known currently are:
1) Raymond Rydberg.
The 1950 census shows a 2-person household in Lamar, Prowers Colorado. Raymond R Rydberg, 32, an auto mechanic, and Ordean M, 18.
2) Warren Valentine, noted above.
3) Levi Stubben, noted above, father of two of her children (Mark and Kurt).One child's TX birth cert. is on FS. This marriage was probably in New Mexico and may have ended in California, but no record is found for either.
Two records found for her in the California index:
4) Buster Lowery, San Joaquin county, Nov 1971 (divorce)
5) Jasper T Bidwell, 31 Mar 1973, San Joaquin county (Marriage)
6) Delmas Landers, her surname when she died.
