Trapped 'Baby Jessica' grown up, married ( United Press International )
MIDLAND, Texas, Jan 30, 2006 (UPI via COMTEX) --
The Texas toddler who was trapped in a well for 58 hours in 1987 and whose
rescue was televised internationally has married at the age of 19.
Jessica McClure married 32-year-old Daniel Morales outside Midland, Texas,
Saturday in a small chapel, People magazine reported.
She was 18 months old when she fell 22 feet into a narrow, abandoned well in
the back yard of her aunt's home in 1987.
After 58 hours and with a global audience, two paramedics plucked Jessica
from the well.
Well-wishers from around the world sent her family cash donations, which
were put into a trust fund, which reportedly is worth more than $1 million,
the magazine said. It becomes payable when the woman turns 25. |
