The Crosbyton Review, Thursday, October 23, 1952
Thomas Edward Moores was a cook there in Crosbyton and may have owned a cafe there. His granddaughter is not certain she just remembers that he would sit her on a stool there in a cafe and make the best hamburger she had ever had.
Rhonda Montoya, granddaughter of William Vernon Moores and Mable Elizabeth Moores.
