Hi. I'm not related to this family.I found a 1959 Manhattan directory listed that might be for Marjorie:
U.S. City Directories, 1821-1989 (Beta) about Marjorie MN Chanslor
Name: Marjorie Chanslor
Residence Year: 1959
Street Address: 15W75
Residence Place: Manhattan, New York
Publication Title: Manhattan, New York, City Directory, 1959
--Mrs Marjorie Chanslor15W75
That's all I could find post-1955 and I can't prove that that is even her.According to the 1940 Census, Marjorie was born in NY:

More likely Roy was born in Missouri, as evidenced by a death record:

According to his 1923 U.S. Passport application, his full name was Roy Edwin Chanslor:

This couple was together as early as 1931, according to a passenger flight list from Mexico to San Diego:

I could not find Marjorie Torrey, b. 1900 NY in the U.S. Census.It might be that her last name Torrey was a pseudonym.Sorry I could not be of more help.Annie
