They gave her the name Gladys. She eventually came back to her father to live, but not until she was about 10 years old or so, she is not listed with Guy and his new family in the 1930 census. My grandmother said that the woman who raised her was kind to her but asked that she called her mother, which my grandmother did not want to do. At 3 years old, she was basically an orphan (she did not know that this was arranged through her uncle James Mosier). Her father did not visit her after taking her there to live. She never knew if there was a legal adoption or if it was just a temporary situation.
