Aunt Evie Moore (b. 1883)

Evie Moore was born in 1883 in North Carolina. She is the daughter of William David and Frances Moore. She is the sister to William Edgar Moore (2nd great grandfather).

In 1900, the Moore family was living in Durham, NC in the "Industry of Durham". William Edgar and Evie were both working in the cotton mill. I have not been able to track any additional records.


India White wrote "Aunt Evie" on back of this photo.
