My name is Thomas Wayne Moore, b. 8/30/44 at NAS Banana River, FL. I am a first-time searcher. I have had no contact with the paternal (Moore) side of my family for approx. 52 years, except for a brief encounter with one uncle around 1965-66. I lost contact with him when I went to Viet Nam in 2/67.
The only information I have is that my father's name was Thomas Watson Moore, Jr. (therefore, his father's name must have been Thomas Watson Moore, Sr.) and that he was born in Lyons, GA in the early 1920's. He also had a brother by the name of David.
He (my father) was a machinist's mate in the Navy, and was killed in a private airplane crash sometime in 1949 in the vicinity of Eau Gallie, FL. He had married Alice L. Rivers, and they had three children, Tommy (me), Jenny and David.
That is all I know at this time. If there is anyone out there who has further info, or can help me get started in finding some, please contact me.
I am very (if belatedly) interested in finding out who I am, and who my relatives are. I have three daughters and seven grandchildren, and would like to tell them more about their ancestors.
Thanks, twm
