Emeline Moore Fletcher [later LeVert] portrait by James McGibbon
after Conservation treatment by David Goist of Raleigh, NC
now in the Murfreesboro Historical Assoc. collection
This painting looked down on me [Sally] as I slept when I was young
as it was over the Mantle in the Long Room which was the girls' room for my
generation; the generation before, it had been the boys' room
We think it was painted during the time she was a widow as she is dressed in
dark gray.

Sam Westray 1838-1894
Note: when Sam Westray died in 1894 his 7 first cousins [or
their heirs] all shared
in the estate - e.g. Dr. G C Moore's share was 1/7 of the estate and each of
his 7 children received $10,000, which
was quite a sum of money in those days.
The money seems to have come from Sam E Westray's extensive real-estate
holdings. [Vick 342 ac tract in Nash Co, Wells & Bailey tract in Nash Co

"My
grandmother used to tell of living in Austin, where Grandmother Daniel owned
nearly a whole city block near the governor's mansion. Brother and sister
Jones married sister & brother Daniel, and the little double-first-cousins
enjoyed adjoining backyards and were the best of pals. My grandmother always
referred to her cousin Camille as "Cuddy". (I only vaguely
remember hearing "Doods", but other family members might have
called her that)."
