Children of Thomas Elwood and Alma Lee

3. son

Mary was married to Robert Victor "Vic" Lind, who preceded her in death, and she and he are buried in Lakeview Cemetery, Cheyenne, WY. In August 1937, when he first signed with Social Security Administration, he listed his name as Robert Victor Lind. I don't know if Mary and Robert had children. Both the gravestone and some of the SS records give her name as Marydine. [Find A Grave and SS Administration records]

Thomas was married to Mary Totten, who preceded him in death, and both are buried in Sacramento Valley National Cemetery, Dixon, CA. Thomas and Mary had three daughters and a son. [Find A Grave, which has a photo of their gravestone and a copy of his obituary from Lodi (California) News-Sentinel]

I have not listed the other son since I'm aware that his widow is still living. If you are an Isaac Newton Moody descendant or an Elijah W. Moody descendant and want the information, get in contact with me.
