As a teenager and young adult, Driscoll gave music lessons and sang in choir at the church of which she attended. While at choir practice one day, she met a member of the choir named James Edward "Jim" Jordan. The two wed on August 31, 1918. They had two children together; a son and a daughter. The two would endure a long career in showbiz together.
The two earned very little income. Marian settled on becoming a piano teacher and Jim became a mailman. Jim enlisted in the military and was eventually drafted and stationed in France in 1918 during the first world war. Jim contracted a case of influenza. After the war ended, Jim stayed in Europe to do Vaudeville performances for wounded soldiers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jim and Marian Jordan's Contributions to Radio )〕
