The dates between 1940-1946 represent the time between the birth of Regina, fathered by John Batten, and the mention of Mary Violet Ross' married name of Benjamin in the obituary for her father on 03 Jul 1946. Logically this concludes that her marriage to Benjamin had to occur sometime between 1940-1946.
