Marion was born in 1885 in Berkhamsted, the daughter of Thomas Ryder and Mary Richardson and was baptised in St Peters, 10 January 1886.
She married Norman Basil Copley, a clerk, although the location of the wedding has not been established.

It has not been possible to locate Basil and Marion in the 1939 Register. Basil died in Swindon in 1962. It is possible that the couple separated as Marion’s probate record reads “Marion Ryder Copley otherwise Marion Ryder”.
