She was pretty girl, and she did get marry in 1933 to William Robert Vincent Bennett (1918-1976)
I couldn't find any children but something strange about her and her husbands death dates. She died on 14 Oct 1976 in New South Wales, Australia and William died 7 Nov 1976 in New South Wales, Australia. Might just be a coincidence. I checker Newspapers.com couldn't find anything.
I Did not find any records on William so may have been a very good man and good for her because I didn't find any further police or court records for her.
I am hoping this was a happy ending.
