Aunt Della was the youngest daughter born on December 26, 1909 in the Liberty area in Greensville County, VA to Robert Moore and Mary Eliza Robinson Moore. She is the youngest sister of my paternal grandmother Hattie Moore Pair and is the last living child of her family.
Until a few years ago, Aunt Della thought she was born in 1910 instead of 1909, but research revealed a birth year of 1909. Read more about this discovery.
Aunt Della is assisted by her oldest grandson in cutting her 100th birthday cake.
More party details and photos to come . . . .

Wonderful! On August 2, 2008, we celebrated my grandmother Margaret C. Allen's 100th birthday at the Do-Chi-Ki club in Newport News after a beautiful tribute at Saint Paul AME, where she was a member for 75+ years. She passed away peacefully in February of this year, aged 101.
