2.2.2.4.3. Mary Brodie Moore (1905-1986)

Mary Brodie Moore was the third child of James and Martha (Brodie) Moore. She was born on 23 December 1905 at 14 Calder Street, Dixon's Rows, Blantyre. She was six years old when she, her siblings, and mother left Scotland to meet their father in Canada.

Mary married Collan Grey Wilson, who was born on 8 August 1892 in Colorado, and together they four children though I only know about a son named Gordon Vernon Wilson in 1929. Collan died on 22 December 1972 in San Bernardino, California. Nothing is known about his parents.

Mary applied for a Social Security account in 1944. At that time she lived in Rialto, California, and indicated her name was Mary Irene Wilson, her parents were James Moore and Martha Lillian Brodie and that she had been born on 23 December 1907 in Blantyre, Scotland. I believe she fudged a bit about her age on the application form.

She died on 14 April 1986 in Riverside County, California.
