It did not take me long to find the names of my Grandpa Moore's parents. My Grandpa Moore (Charlie Arnold Moore) was the son of Charlie Alden Moore (My Great Grandfather) and Susan Esther Hughes. Charlie Alden Moore was born March 31, 1888. He died on 06/08/1969 in Oklahoma City, OK. According to his Social Security application that he filled out, Charlie Alden Moore says that he was born near Bentonville, AR. Also on the application, his parents were Bert Herman Moore and Mary Ford. Bert Herman Moore's real name was Burton. Charlie Alden Moore went to Bartlesville, OK. after 1930 and moved to Oklahoma City in 1931. He retired from Tinker Air Force Base and was a member of the Southern Temple Baptist Church.
