Michigan Death Records reports that Florence Swindlehurst died on December 31, 1944 in Lansing just a year and a half after her marriage to Gerald. I find no record of a divorce and, in fact, her marital status on the death record is "married." This is a bit of a puzzle too, since Find A Grave shows her as Florence Dyer supported by a photo of the marker. She is buried with first husband Charles Dyer in Glendale Cemetery, Okemos.
