After Grover and Adell divorced, he is
shown married to Hattie Viola (Stokely) Rainwater -- his brother's widow.
This may or may not be accurate. Hattie may have been living with Griover
and his daughter but its not known whether they were married. He later married Ruth Oral Shoen Farrell in 1952.
Grover and Ruth were killed in an automobile accident.
