Marilyn Monroe's alleged father linked to 1929 Ohio death
Riverside dispatch reports documents found in the home of Martin Edward Mortensen show he married Gladys Monroe in 1924 and fathered Norma Jean Mortensen born 1926, suggesting he was Marilyn Monroe's father. Coroner officials cite records and an old magazine claiming paternity, while studio accounts dispute the tale.
