Lesbian Couple of 55 Years to Marry

SAN FRANCISCO (June 16) - Phyllis Lyon and Del Martin fell in love at a time when lesbians risked being arrested, fired from their jobs and sent to electroshock treatment.

On Monday, more than a half-century after they became a couple, Lyon and Martin plan to become one of the first same-sex couples to legally exchange marriage vows in California.

Phyllis Lyon, 84, left, and Del Martin, 87, who have been a couple for 55 years,
are to be among the first same-sex partners to legally exchange marriage vows
in California. Gay marriage became legal Sunday under a California Supreme Court
ruling that overturned a ban on them.

It will be the second time that Lyon and Martin have taken wedding vows. Here,
they embrace after getting married in February 2004, when San Francisco Mayor
Newsom challenged the state's marriage laws by issuing licenses to same-sex
couples. In the ensuing court battle, the California Supreme Court nullified their
union and more than 4,000 others

Lyon and Martin display their marriage certificate

in 2004. They are pioneers in the gay rights movement.

In 1955, they formed a social club that turned into the

first organization in the nation to advocate for lesbians' rights.

 

Couples line up to apply for marriage licenses May 15 at City Hall in San Francisco. Massachusetts is the only other state that allows gay couples to wed. Sources: AP, cnn.com
