Black Sheep - Feroll Moore Pyle - 52 Ancestors #20

For this week's 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks writing challenge from blogger Amy Crow Johnson of No Story Too Small, the theme is Black Sheep. For each of the first nineteen weeks of this challenge, I have had success writing about a direct ancestor. For this theme, I thought I would write about my grandfather Pyle's second wife.

Feroll Moore was born in High Springs, Alachua County, Florida, on August 9, 1900, to Augustus and Cleone Moore. I find her in the 1910 U.S. Census with her family in Jacksonville, Florida, and in 1920 in Clearwater, Florida. By 1930, Feroll Moore is a lodger in New York City, with occupation of "Manager, Hotel."

I don't know how they met, but in August 1933, Feroll Moore married my grandfather, Charles McAlpin Pyle. According to a brief wedding announcement in the New York Times, Feroll had already been married and divorced, but I haven't found details of that.

This marriage didn't last long. By 1940, Charles and Feroll had separated, and in June 1941, their divorce was finalized. Supposedly in 1941, Charles married his third wife, Lucy (though I'm still looking for a primary source for that fact.) Charles died on August 17, 1966, in Washington, D.C. leaving his wife Lucy and my father as his heirs.

However...
