Norma Jeane "Marilyn" lived off-and-on with Grace, as well as in foster homes and perhaps an orphanage. It was during her last time living with Gladys that Norma was encouraged to marry her then-boyfriend James Dougherty. After encouragement, Norma and her half-sister began writing and finally met when Norma was 19. Working together and with the help of "Gladys aunt", they finally got Gladys released from the psychiatric hospital. Gladys lived in Oregon for about a year, then came to Los Angeles and lived with "Aunt Ana" (Grace's aunt), and at times apparently with Grace and Ervin as well. | Norma Jeane "Marilyn" lived off-and-on with Grace, as well as in foster homes and perhaps an orphanage.
