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 May 1922 with Gladys being granted custody. Jasper married again and moved back to Kentucky where he had been from, kidnapping the two children and taking them with him (see [http://books.google.com/books?id=tDDy91iuO4kC&pg=PT21&lpg=PT21&dq=martin+mortensen+gladys&source=web&ots=SgPX57gVcG&sig=SjB93iU-dxpCV9m_WCiE9vE6xE4&hl=en#PPT30,M1]). 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]).

The family is living in 1920 in Los Angeles. On a visit back to Jasper's home-state of Kentucky, Gladys supposedly had a too-close relationship with Jasper's younger brother Audrey and Jasper beat Gladys. When they returned to California, she filed for divorce.

Jasper returned to Kentucky where he was from, he took the children there to live with him. For a short time, Gladys lived in Kentucky, but after another confrontation, she left for California, and would not again see her daughter for twenty years. When Norma Jean was 19, she finally met her half-family (see [http://www.monaraemiracle.com/work1.htm Mona Miracle's website]).

Sometime during this period, Jasper and Gladys went to Kentucky for a visit where Mona relates an incident related to Jasper's younger brother Audrey (see [http://books.google.com/books?id=tDDy91iuO4kC&pg=PT21&lpg=PT21&dq=martin+mortensen+gladys&source=web&ots=SgPX57gVcG&sig=SjB93iU-dxpCV9m_WCiE9vE6xE4&hl=en#PPT29,M1]).
