John and Ann Betar

Connecticut (FoxNews) – The longest-married couple in America – who are set to 
celebrate their 81st anniversary on Monday – have one bit of advice on how to stay together so long: just roll with the punches.

“If you think a little bit about what you’re doing, and if it’s wrong… we straighten it
out, and if not we just try to go along with it,” said Ann Betar, 97, who is married to
101-year-old John Betar.

The Betars eloped on Nov. 25, 1932, after leaving Bridgeport, Conn., for Harrison,
N.Y., to avoid Ann’s father’s plans to have her marry a man 20 years her senior, MyFoxPhilly.com reports. Ann was 17 and John was 21 at the time.

Now eight decades later, the couple lives in Fairfield, Conn., and has five children,
14 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren.

Jerry Lee Lewis and his new wife Myra before they left England

While on a British tour, rock singer Jerry Lee Lewis announced he had
married his third wife, Myra Gale Brown who was his 13-year-old first
cousin once removed. Lewis was 22 at the time and the publicity of
the marriage caused an uproar and the tour was cancelled after only
three concerts. 

The scandal followed Lewis home to the US, and as a result, he was
blacklisted from radio and almost vanished from the music scene. He
was even dropped by Dick Clark from his shows.

His marriage, to Myra lasted for 13 years, from December 1957 to
December 1970. They had two children together:

Jackie Gleason arrives at the Orange Bowl in Miami

The Rally for Decency held in the Orange Bowl in Miami attracted over 35,000 
people, including Jackie Gleason (above) and the Lettermen. The rally was in 
support of a teenage crusade for decency in entertainment. The event was
organized after Jim Morrison, the lead singer of The Doors, was charged with
indecent exposure during a concert in Miami held on March 1. 

Julie James, a member of the Rally For Decency crusade said…”this is not
a protest rally, we’re not against something, we’re for something, talks on
God and sex”. Teenage speakers gave three minute talks on God, parents,
patriotism, sexuality and brotherhood. The rally, which appeared to have an
even amount of teenagers and adults in attendance, was later commended
by then President Richard Nixon.
