Who her father was is not clear. Gladys had been married to Martin Edward Mortensen and that is the father listed on Norma's birth certificate, but Martin and Gladys had been seperated for too much time prior to Norma's birth. So either Gladys was still seeing him, even though divorced, or Marilyn's father was someone else. Gladys had been married first to Jasper Newton "Jap" Baker and had two children from this marriage. When Jasper returned to Kentucky where he was from, he took the children there to live with him. When Norma Jean was 19, she finally met her half-family (see [http://www.monaraemiracle.com/work1.htm Mona Miracle's website). Norma Jean married first on 19 Jun 1942 to James Dougherty who recently died. Before his death, James wrote a book about his marriage to Marilyn Monroe. While James was away fighting in World War II, Marilyn took a job working at the Radioplane factory. It was here where she was first commercially photographed for an article in YANK article. She legally changed her name to "Marilyn Monroe". She died in her home in Brentwood, Los Angeles August 5, 1962. ===Primary sources for 1=== *[http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?indiv=1&rank=0&f2=&f1=&sx=&f9=Los+Angeles&f5=1&f4=Jun&rg_f3__date=1926&rs_f3__date=0&f6=&f7=&gskw=&prox=1&db=cabirth1905&ti=0&ti.si=0&gss=angs-d&fh=69&recid=15374598&recoff=15+16+17+19+20&fsk=CIAAFH8AsbWQ&bsk=&pgoff= California Birth Index] showing "Norma Jeane Mortenson, born 1 Jun 1926, Los Angeles County.

Mona Miracle (see [http://www.monaraemiracle.com/work1.htm]) reports that on the marriage certificate Martin lists his occupation as "meterman" and his status as "divorced". Martin died Feb 10, 1981 in Riverside County, California.

Stating that the one who died in 1981 in Riverside, is the same one who was married to Marilyn's mother. "... found copies of Miss Monroe's birth certificate at Mr. Mortensen's apartment, as well as marriage and divorce papers for Mr. Mortensen and Gladys Baker, Miss Monroe's mother....The birth certificate lists the father as Edward Mortensen, age 29." ==Gladys Pearl Monroe== Gladys was born 27 May 1902 in Porfirio Diaz, Mexico (now known as Piedras Negra), daughter of [[#Otis Elmer Monroe|Otis Elmer Monroe]] and his wife [[#Della Mae Hogan|Della Mae Hogan]]. Gladys married May 1917 to Jasper Newton "Jap" Baker. They had two children: Robert Kermit "Jack" Baker born 24 Jan 1918 who died at age 14 and Berniece Inez Gladys Baker born 30 Jul 1919. Both children were born in Los Angeles County, California. Berniece would later marry Paris Miracle and their daughter Mona has writen a book about Marilyn Monroe. Jasper and Gladys filed for divorce 20 Jul 1921 in California and it was granted in 1923. Jasper married again and moved back to Kentucky where he had been from, taking the two children. It's not yet clear to me if he married again while in California, or after his return to Kentucky. His new wife was named Maggie (see [http://www.monaraemiracle.com/work1.htm Mona Miracle's website]). Gladys married on 11 Oct 1924 to Martin Edward Mortensen, she left him five months later to move in with her good friend Grace Atchison McKee who was divorced. But, Gladys and Martin, were not officially divorced until 1 Jun 1927. Gladys' daughter Marilyn Monroe was born in Los Angeles County Hospital, Los Angeles County, California on Jun 1, 1926 as "Norma Jeane Mortensen" to Gladys Pearl Monroe. On her birth certificate, her father is listed as "Martin Mortensen" even though her parents had been divorced for over a year. Gladys was evidently in and out of various sanitariums for part or most of her life. The exact details are not yet clear. At some point she married a Mr Eley, and at some point, before 1951, she had lived in Oregon. Toward the latter part of her life, she moved, or was moved to Florida where as "Gladys Eley" she died Mar 1984 in Gainesville, Alachua County, Florida. ===Primary documents for 3=== *[http://content.ancestry.com/iexec/?htx=View&r=an&dbid=7884&iid=CAT624_82-0420&fn=Gladys+P&ln=Monroe&st=d&ssrc=&pid=180681564 1910 Census of Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, California] showing "Della M Monroe, Head, 33, Widow, mother of 2, 2 living, born Missouri (Father Illinois, Mother Illinois); Gladys P, daughter, 8, born Mexico (father born Indiana); Marion E, daughter, 5 born California.

There is a OneWorldTree submission which calls her "Sarah Ann Dunkle". John and Sarah were probably married in Chariton County, Missouri as John is living there in 1870 with his parents, George and Sarah. There is a OneWorldTree submission which calls her "Sarah Ann Owen". Primary documents *1870 Census of Chariton County, Missouri showing "John F Hogan, 25 b KY", living with his (assumed by me) parents George W Hogan age 46 b KY and Sarah A age 46 b VA. Also living with them is "Edward Owen, age 84, b Maryland" *1880 Census of Brunswick, Chariton County, Missouri showing "John Hogan 35 b KY, Sarah 32 b OH, Otis 7, Henry 5, Ollie 3, Cordie 1" *1900 Census of Hico Township, Benton County, Arkansas showing "John Hogan, Sarah" and various children none of whom is Otis. Secondary sources *On Feb 27, 2007 on Gen-Medieval, Fred Chalfant noted that "George Washington Hogan and Sarah Ann Owen are the 2Ggrandparents of Norma Jeane Mortenson(Baker)" [[Category:Ancestry research]] [[Category:Famous Women]] [[Category:California]] [[Category:Missouri]] [[Category:Movies and Television]]
