William Cady Moore was a telegraph operator. He lived at 2006 Beach Avenue from 1903 to 1905.
William Cady Moore was born in Baldwinsville, New York on April 12, 1877.
He was married to Ella Josephine Moore. She was born in Nova Scotia on March 11, about 1871. Ella’s father was John Kane. (Some sources say that Ella’s surname was Conners or Kinnear.) Ella’s mother was Mary Moray.
William’s and Ella’s marriage ended by 1910. On November 21, 1910, in Vancouver, Ella married Ralph Johnstone Wilson, who worked for the Vancouver World newspaper. (The marriage certificate for Ella’s marriage to Ralph Wilson said that Ella was a widow, although William Moore was still alive at that time.)
William went to live in the United States.
On March 30, 1913, William married Edna Bresee, who was from Wonewoc, Wisconsin.
William worked as a telegraph operator and he later became a supervisor of inter-communication operations for the Federal Reserve Banks. He retired in 1935.
In 1942, he began working as a doorman at the Warner Brothers theatre in Sheboygan, Wisconsin.
Edna’s mother died in 1944.
Edna died in Sheboygan on August 20, 1949. She was buried in Acadia Park Cemetery in Chicago, Illinois.
William died in Sheboygan on June 21, 1953. He was buried in Acadia Park Cemetery in Chicago.
Ella died in Vancouver on March 3, 1949. She was buried in Ocean View Cemetery in Vancouver. (Further information appears on the page for Ralph Johnstone Wlson.)

He was born in Vancouver on July 1, 1903.

In 1949, Harold and Dorothy were living at 655 West King Edward Avenue. Harold was a salesman for W.M. Gow (probably his father-in-law’s business).
