Seeking the Moore family.

The New Pittsburgh Courier, 7 March 1942.

——

In the 1940 census of Akron, Summit County, Ohio: Lizzie Settles, 65, widow, born in N.C.; grandson Claude Folds, 18, born in Georgia; cousin Henry Moor, 57, born in Florida; and lodger Stella Bland, 38, born in Florida.

On 12 July 1945 in Akron, Ohio, Henry Moore, 63, of Akron, janitor, born in Milton, Florida, to John Moore and Margaret Rogers, married Lizzie Settles, 62, of Akron, born in Snow Hill, N.C., to Nelson Razberry and Patsy Williams.

There were several Mary Moores in Wilson County in the early 1900s, but none immediately identifiable as the one Lizzie Settles was looking for.
