Agnes Rodgers Brown Welch was the second wife of Joseph N. Welch. Joseph Welch made his mark in history as the head attorney for the United States Army in the Army-McCarthy hearings. Mr. Welch's first wife, Judith Lydon, died in 1956. He remarried Agnes Rodgers Brown one year later and remained married to her until his death in 1960. In 1959 Welch was asked to portray Judge Weaver in the acclaimed film Bir Cinayetin Tahlili (1959) Having been an acquaintance of the author of the book on which the movie was based -- Michigan Supreme Court Justice John Voelker, aka. Robert Traver -- he accepted, remarking "because it looked like that was the only way I'd ever get to be a judge." One stipulation for being in the film was that his wife, Agnes Welch, play a part in the film. Consequently she portrayed one of the jurors and was able to be near her husband on shooting days. _Anatomy of a Murder (1959)_qv is the only film appearance for both Joseph and Agnes Welch.
