Question to research: Who was "Fancher", and why is their last name tied to a few of Primos' introductions?

Interesting note: Elizabeth Fancher daylily was intro'd in 1966, which was the same year the article on Doris Alley was printed. Amethyst Glow (Fancher-Primos intro) was also intro'd in 1966, as was Petite Lass. The only Fancher-Primos intro *not* intro'd in 1966 was 'Pink Slippers', which was intro'd in 1968. Was this a short-lived hybridizing partner? A family member? Her maiden name? (...considering they are the earliest intro/registration dates of all of her daylilies, the maiden name idea is very much a possibility, I would think.)

(Are the dates the registration dates? ....they are what is listed in the AHS database...need to research what the date means, for sure.)
