Tammy,
I don't know anything about Mary Poore at this time. Actually, most of
the information that I have gathered on the POOR(E)'S date back in the
1800's. My grandfather was born in 1875...it was his mother that was a
POORE. I have found their surname spelled both ways, so I just accept
either. Sorry that I couldn't help you, but I know that there are still
people in Dover that are POORES.
Good luck in your research.
Michelle
