02 Underwood (William "Gene"). Children: None together, he had a daughter and a son from his first marriage.

This memorial for Virginia Dare "Gin" Logan Gall was originally created by MAX SHAFER, added 12 Feb 2012, and transferred to her daughter Judy Sue Thomas ID 49140342.

d/o W.F. Logan Sr (1886-1968) and Laura Susan Potts Logan (1897-1964).
She was #13 of their 13 children, #09 of their nine daughters and four sons.
My parents were married and divorced in the state of Oklahoma from:
20 October 1951-20 June 1956.
She and #02 William Eugene Underwood were married on 12 May 1965 in Rayville LA.
Do not know the marriage date with #03, Donald Eugene Gall, but he was her husband until her death on 13 February 1969.

Everyone including my brother and me called her Gin except her father W.F. Logan who called her Virginia.
When the Elizabeth Taylor movie "Butterfield 8" was released, I began calling her Gingerfield 8, she thought that was funny.
Her vices of which I know included Schlitz beer and smoking cigarettes.
She sometimes attended church. She, my brother and I converted to the Catholic religion in 1963, the only Catholics in her family.
She wore sunglasses so often, even indoors, that a classmate in elementary school asked me, "Is your mother blind?" I once saw a photo taken of her sitting in a pew at the church where her parents were regular worshippers. She was wearing sunglasses.
Her last employment was at glass factory Anchor Hocking. She was a housewife during marriages 01 and 02.
Her favorite Patsy Cline song was "Walking After Midnight".
Her favorite song probably was "Peace In The Valley", sung by Esther, a friend of her sister Florene, at her funeral in 1969. I didn't find out until years later that often during a phone call Esther would sing to her.
Her sister Jewell Logan Edens was no fan of the Catholic religion. Gin's funeral was sort of a half Catholic affair. After the service, Aunt Jewell gave me the hankie she had clutched during the service, and commented, "That was almost Christian."
