They p're well known for their released the 1961 number-one single, "Please Mr. Postman". They struggled with problems of poor promotion from Motown, health issues and substance abuse with Cowart the first to leave in 1963, followed by Georgeanna Tillman in 1965, and Gladys Horton in 1967. The group ceased performing together in 1969 and disbanded the next year, following the release of the Return of the Marvelettes featuring only Young (under her married name, Wanda Rogers). James J.
