[edit] Dobie Moore's birth and death dates

Current research so far has failed to confirm any birth or death dates for Moore. When Gary A. and I were first going through the WW1 draft records on Ancestry.com, we found the registration of the white Walter Moore that Gary mentions on his blog. I added the note of "unconfirmed note" about the proposed death date, not feeling confident enough at that moment to say outright that the death date was wrong. I was given it by SABR NLC, but found it inconclusive.

I believe that until/unless we find his Army enlistment/discharge records (or a possible WW2 registration), it's unlikely we'll have the birthdate for certain, and all the stories of where/when he died and was buried are still rumors. The reference to a death date should probably be removed.
