From a family tree owned by "elizabethcohea13"
Beverly
Stephen Reynolds, died 2 July 1978 in Orange County, CA. Her mother, Virginia E. Dalzell,
was born in Indiana
--Your tree:
http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/24508483/person/1550249172
has an approximate birth date for Virginia of 1898.
The 1930 Census of Maywood, LA County:
Beverly S. Reynolds, age 33 (1896/1897) born in Pennsylvania to father born in
Massachusettes, mother in Nevada, first married age 18, engineer, railroad.
Virginia, 33(1896/1897), born in Indiana to father born in IN, mother in Ohio.
Beverly D(as transcribed), age 14
Dorothy, 9(1920/1921),
William, 6(1923/1924)
"The marriage was filed on Jan. 3, 1936..." Where? Have you obtained a copy of
the certificate? It might show the names of witnesses, sometimes enough information to
trace, which would help identify more information about them. As example, another person
named Price, might be a brother.
On the Social Security Death Index, I ran the name "Beverly" and
"1915." A Beverly Overbey, died 2 Sep 1992, "last residence" Las
Vegas, Clark Co, NV. This person was born on 5 Sep 1915. Coincidence? This person's
SSN was 530-22-9168, issued in Nevada 1952-1953.
--The "last residence" on the SSDI is NOT necessarily where a person actually
lived. The Social Security Administration calls it simply the "home of record."
It is not necessarily where any benefit was paid to the person, survivor, or the lumpsum
death benefit (in 1972 was paid to anyone paying burial expenses, family member, funeral
home, city/county, attorney). It is sometimes the location where the notification of
death was sent to the SSA, sometimes where the lump sum death benefit was sent.
--You could learn if this is the correct person by ordering this person's application
for her SSN (SS-5).
It would show her parents names:

Public Records 1950-1993:
Beverly R. Overbey, born 5 Sep 1915, lived at 6216 Fargo Ave, Las Vegas. Also identified
at this address was a Harry M. Overbey, born 27 Jun 1904.
--Middle initial "R," sometimes married woman use the first letter/full maiden
name as their middle..
The Clark County Recorder:
A recorded document for "Affidavit Termination" recorded 9/1/1993, concerning a
Harry M. Overbey and Beverly "D" Overbey...Also identified as Beverly Dalzell
Overbey. This basically proves this person was Beverly D. Reynolds/Price/Overbey. I
found no other records, property included.
So, at this point, you would need to obtain a copy of her obituary.
