  Elizabeth has two children before she marries Robert Wells. Both are with her in the 1950 Census.

The first child was
Jimmy Earl Rorrer, b. Oct 21, 1939, Cabell Co., WV ; d. May 23, 2007, Huntington, Cabell Co., WV.  In the 1940 Census he shows up at 5 months under the name James Bloore a son of Irene (Elizabeth's sister).  In Irene's 1950 Census, he is not with her but with Elizabeth under the name Jimmy Rorrer (indexed Dorrer), 10 years old. SS Application Jimmy gives father's name as Earl Rorrer. So the actual parentage of Jimmy Earl Rorrer, is questionable.

The second child is
Jacqueline Lou Fowler, b. Feb 24, 1942, Huntington, Cabell Co., WV ; d. Jan 19, 2010, Circleville, Pickaway Co., OH.  She first appears with Elizabeth in the 1950 Census at age 7 under the name Jacqueline Rorrer (indexed Rover).  Jacqueline goes on to marry at least 4 times to ?Mellet, McElroy, Smith, and finally Neuvirth in 1983.  Father for Jacqueline is given as Howard E Fowler.  Parentage for Jacqueline is also questionable.

I am unable to find any actual marriage records of Elizabeth Pauline Grant including the marriage to Robert Wells.
