Pause

November 23, 1930.
Nina and Elbert Beecher--married two days.
In front are Ora and Albert Simmons. Ora was Nina’s mother.

Who is Billy?

Two days before leaving on his mission, Elbert Ray Beecher married Nina Hess in the Salt Lake City Temple on 21 November 1930. Obviously in 2012, this would be frowned upon. But in 1930, rules for missionaries were a bit different. "Billy" must have been Elbert's term of endearment for Nina.
