Maybelline King Tom Lyle Williams’ nephew weds his childhood sweetheart Pauline Mac Donald.while at boot camp.

Maybelline King Tom Lyle Williams nephew Bill Williams and his bride Pauline Mac Donald Williams. March 1945, a few day’s before Bill shipped overseas to the Philippines during WW11.


It must have been hard for a 21 year old girl – only married a few day’s – to say goodbye to her husband knowing she may never see him again.



Read more about Bill and Pauline, Tom Lyle, the Maybelline Company and the Williams family during the War years of the 1940’s in The Maybelline Story by Sharrie Williams with Dr. Bettie Youngs.
