Description
Plaintiff, Ruth Townsend (Miller) filed her motion to fix the custody of Sue Ann Townsend, aged 4 years, the minor daughter of herself and the defendant, James Nelson Townsend. On November 10, 1958, plaintiff had been granted an absolute divorce from defendant by the Circuit Court of Jackson County, Missouri, but the decree made no reference or order as to custody of this minor child, who at that time was nineteen months old. These parties were married November 3, 1953, in Leavenworth, Kansas. At that time Mr. Townsend was 24 years of age and the plaintiff was three years older. This was Mr. Townsend's first marriage and Mrs. Townsend's third. The defendant has served in the United States Navy since 1947, and now is a chief petty officer - the highest noncommissioned rank. The Child Sue Ann was born May 7, 1957. In August, 1957, defendant was officially transferred to Naples, Italy. His wife and daughter accompanied him there.
