Ora Haven Barlow
He had been serving in Hawaii for two years when his mission president asked him to extend his mission. He was engaged to Melvira Higgs, so he proposed that she be called on a mission to Hawaii and they would serve the rest of their missions together as a couple. They were married in the Hawaii Temple the day she arrived, 27 June 1922. Their first child, Emily Barlow, was born in Hawaii during their mission.
