Stumped for the fact that there is no death record on file for my Grandmother Vera Moore, who according to my father, his mother Vera died before his coming to the Bismarck, ND Job Corps.. Following is the marriage announcement of my parents in April. 1968, Bismarck Tribune.:
MOORE-CASPER
The wedding of Mary Casper, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ben Casper, 700 S. 12th St., and Larry Moore, Bismarck, son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Hawkins, took place at St. Mary's Catholic Church at 8 a.m. April 19. The Rt. Rev. Msgr. Robert Feehan officiated at the wdding Mass. The Bride's empire street-length dress of white peau de soie featured a chantilly lace overlay caught at the waist with a bow and lace flowers appliqued at the hemline. Her shoulder-length veil of illusion was held by pearl-studded satin roses, and she carried red baby roses. The gown was designed by the bride's mother. Mr. and Mrs James Casper, brother and sister-in-law of the bride, attended the couple. Denise Marie Casper, flower girl, scattered pink rose petals. Both she and the matron of honor wore pink. Ushers were Bennie Newman and Rufus Mosley. A breakfacst was served at the home of the bride's parents and a reception held at the YMCA in the afternoon. Assisting were Mrs. David Stanton, Mrs. Rufus Mosley, Mrs. Bennie Newman, Colleen Casper and Penny Casper. Mrs. Emil Krein made the wedding cake. A dinner was held at Lee's Steak House. The bride is a graduate of St. Mary's Central High School and is a student at the Art Institute in Minniapolis. The bridegroom received his education in Atlanta, GA. He is employed with the State Soil Conservation and is a vocalist with a muscical group. Mr. and Mrs. Moore will be at home at 200 S. 12th., No. 233.

It says Larry was the son of the "late Mr. and Mrs. Clarence HAWKINS", but I know Clarence died before they got a chance be married. My dad's sister Doris was born before Clarence went to serve in the 2nd World War. He came home from the war sometime around April 1946, Grandma Vera became pregnant right around that time and they planned to get married after my father was born...he came into this world on the 15th of Docember, 1946...Clarence was killed in a motor-cycle and car accident while on the job in August before my dad arrived to meet him. He was employed as a Special Delivery Carrier in the city of Atlanta.
Another mystery is that of the death of my dad's maternal Grandmother, Luella Moore.
My maternal Grandmother claims my dad left Bismarck to attend her funeral in Georgia where she had been a resident of Jasper County. This supposedly took place while my mother was pregnant with my younger sister Michelle between Feb. 1970 and Oct. 1970. After Luella's husband died in 1927, she re-married after 1930..supposedly to a Wilson. I've yet to turn up a death certificate.
