DuPont and sent money home to help support her family. She met Ross Moore at Dupont and they married 20 May 1936 in Franklin, Kentucky. She raised two children and had one granddaughter that was the light of her life.

After daddy returned from World War II he returned to Dupont where he was told his health resulting from the war prevented him from doing the strenuous work there so they moved to his parent's farm in Petersburg, TN.

Our grandfather continued to live with us for many more years until he moved in with another daughter, Julia Belle (Judy) Hardaway and her family, in Gallatin, Tennessee.
