Description
Damaged image of Phyllis (Long) Hughes wearing a marching band or majorette uniform of some kind.
Phyllis was from Mt. Jackson, the daughter of Homer Allen Sr. (1886-1968) and Margaret Alice (Barton) (1887-1970) Long. She came from a large family.
In 1942, she married a man from Woodstock. Irvin Kern Fravel (1913-2004) was a bit older and worked as a hotel manager when they married. The couple had a son together, Robert Allen, but the marriage ended soon after. She was divorced by 1945.
Phyllis married again a year later in Virginia Beach. Her second husband was Noah Hughes (1909-1997), born in North Carolina.
He managed a poultry farm in the 1950 census for the Lee District of Shenandoah County. Robert was listed as a 7-year old step-son in that record. However, when Robert married years later, his last name was Hughes and his father was listed as Noah Hughes.
Phyllis lived in Timberville, near Harrisonburg, when she died. Her death record noted she had worked as a bank teller.
