Eliza Ann Moore (b: 27 Aug 1876 IN, d: unk), nicknamed Lida, married a Byron Joy possibly in 1900. As late as 1895, Lida was still living in Dallas County Iowa, which puts her close to your Byron F. Joy (b: 1862, Mahaska Co, IA ) in Mahaska County.

Lida's older sister, Jemima Moore Rogers (or maybe Vanlangham) was living in Hitchcock County Nebraska around the turn of the century.

Father:Thomas Wilson Moore (1833-1892)
