VJ Peterson and Margaret Eillen Bowen, daughter of Cordon Corsanda and Gussie Honaker Bowen, were married November 19, 1932 in Aztec, San Juan County, New Mexico. VJ and Margaret (# 69699432)had two daughters; Margaret Ann (Annie) Peterson Crain (# 69699420) and Susan Mae Peterson Batchelder.
The letters 'VJ' for VJ's name are not a shortened version for some other name nor is it a nickname, VJ is his legal name given to him at the time of his birth.
Born to Mr. and Mrs. Walter Peterson on January 10th, a son. Mother and son doing well and Walter, well you can't hold him with a four inch hay cable.

VJ Peterson, son of Mr. and Mrs. W.A. Peterson, left via his "Sparkplug" - a regenerated Ford speeder - accompanied by his sister, Miss Flossie for Grand Forks on Monday. From there he goes to Fort Snelling, Minn., where he will enter upon a month's military training. Let's hope that Sparkplug will hold out until its master reaches his destination in safety and without encountering too many speed cops.

VJ Peterson, son of Mr. and Mrs. W.A. Peterson, who has attended the Civilian Military Training Camp at Fort Snelling for the past month, returned home Tuesday. Nine hundred young men from North and South Dakota and Minnesota, of which over three hundred came from North Dakota, took advantage of this military training course. North Dakota, so we are told, carried off a number of first prizes in many of the athletic sports as well as in appearance and general health.

She married VJ Peterson in 1932 and had two daughters from that union, Margaret Ann Crain; and Sue Batchelder.
Following their divorce Margaret moved to Moab from Fontana, California in 1952 where she owned and operated the Elaine Shop for many years. Margaret taught in the public school system here and all so operated her own private kindergarten. She married Roy Gaskill in 1961 and they were later divorced.

Funeral services were held Monday at the Moab Baptist Church for Margaret Ann Crain, lovingly known as 'Annie'. Annie passed away in her home on August 15, 1996 after a lengthy illness. Annie was born to VJ and Margaret Peterson April 21, 1934 in Durango, Colorado.
Annie married Bob Barrett in 1954. One daughter, Tina, was born in 1955 to this union. She later married LeRoy Crain of Dove Creek, Colorado (FINDAGRAVE # 12815390). They operated a trucking business in Mexican Hat and had two children, Jackie and Roger before moving to Moab.
Annie later moved to Salt Lake City with her three children. She owned a business and worked other jobs to raise her children as a single parent. In 1974 she moved back to Moab buying the Hitchin' Post and operating it until she sold it in 1989. From then until she was too ill to work, she sold real estate through Century 21. In 1983 she joined AA and was proud of her achievements through that program.
