  • Name Ralph J. Walker 
    Born 20 Nov 1911  Colorado, USA Find all individuals with events at this location  [1, 2, 3
    • FindAGrave offers a photo of the headstone, which gives years for birth and death of each, but not specific dates. It also gives Marie's maiden name as "Jackson" rather than Schreiber.

      The GenWeb database indicates that its data has been augmented from local sources, and though it does not offer a photo, it does offer specific dates for birth and death of each, as well as the maiden name "Schreiber" for Marie.

      The Arapahoe County marriage license makes it clear that Marie's maiden name was Schreiber. Ralph's date of birth passed down by family members agrees with the date of birth on both databases, and it seems overwhelmingly likely that this is the right couple.
