Does anyone know of her and her descendants? She married a James Patrick in Buchanan Co, MO in 1899. Her daughter Ellen K. Patrick (1901-1949) married George E. Moore, Jr. in about 1926, and they lived in Pasadena, CA. Were there children from the marriage of George Moore and Ellen Patrick?

In 1930 James Patrick, age 56, was listed as president of a Bond House, making $30,000/yr. His son-in-law George Moore, age 28, was the vice president.
