My reflections during the Covid Pandemic 2020 on the Grandparents I never knew.
Back to the grandparents I never met. My grandmother Ella Bolton Moore was said to have been born in “Indian Territory”, I haven’t found a birth certificate for Grandma Ella, but over time “Indian Territory” would have many meanings. However, I did find Ella and William’s marriage documents. The marriage documents provide the confirmation of my mother’s story that William Moore was born William Gordon, and when given a chance he changed his last name to make it easier for his siblings to find him.
