The date was 23 October 1943 when Glenn Ford married Eleanor Powell.

Glenn Ford was in his US Marine Corps uniform.

They had a son Peter Ford who also became an actor – he was born in February 1945.

Later Eleanor Powell turned to God and became a Minister in the Church.

Her son Peter had been struck down with severe arthiritis at the age of 21 and he went through a long period when he could hardly move – then one day he woke up and the affliction had completely left him.    He attributes this to his Mother’s prayers
