(GA?) It is possible that one or both had family in the area. Or they were looking for jobs. Were you adopted just after birth or as an older child? They must have lived in Rockwall County long enough to get a divorce. I'm wondering if your father served in the military, as I notice the marriage date was after WWII in 1946.
