Jann, This would be the sister of Mary Moss' mother in law (Mrs. A. J. Moss). Mary and Sonny (A. J. Moss, Jr.) had 2 girls Kathy and Molly. I am not sure of either's married name. Miss Rubye Rogers did not marry until she was in her 50's. As far as I know all of the siblings are dead. This would also be related into Hattie Nell Horn.

Drew Advance Aug. 31, 1926 A wedding of interest to friends throughout Arkansas and Louisiana was that of Miss Euist (sic) Rogers of Wilmar and David Oscar Porter Jr., of Dumas, Ark. The marriage was solemnized Tuesday morning at nine o'clock at the family home in Wilmar, in the presence of a large gathering of friends and relatives, with Rev. Roy E. Fawcett of Crossett officiating. A temporary chancel was lovely in its decorations of tall wicker baskets of blooming clematis and lighted tapers against a background of palms and ferns. The ____ decoration was a bowl of clematis swung from the ceiling, from which fell markers of white tulle caught with love knots and flowers. Preceeding the ceremony "Because" and "All for you" were sung by Miss Rubye Rogers, sister of the bride with piano accompaniment by Miss Dell Rogers, youngest sister of the bride, who also played "Mendelssohn's Wedding March" for the entrance of the bridal party and "Flower Song" during the ceremony. The bride, given in marriage by her brother, Elvin Rogers of Alexandria, La., was lovely in her traveling dress of navy blue crepe romaine, trimmed with fawn and silver embroidery and accessories to match. She carried a shower bouquet of sweetheart roses and lilies of the valley. Miss Rubye Rogers gowned in chanel red satin back crepe and large black velvet hat, carrying an arm bouquet of white Carnations, was the brides only attendant. Eugene Nunn of Dumas served the groom as best man. Little Miss Mary Elizabeth Moss in orchid crepe de chine trimmed with orchid satin ruffles carried the ring in a minature bouquet of tube roses. The bride is the daughter of Mrs. M.E. Rogers, and has been for the past five years a popular teacher in the school at Dumas. She has studied music and voice extensively. The groom is the only son of Mr. and Mrs. D. O. Porter of Dumas and a graduate of Castle Heights Military academy. Immediately after the ceremony the bride and groom left for a wedding trip to Vicksburg, Jackson, Gulfport, Biloxi, New Orleans and other southern cities and will be at home in Dumas after September the first. Among the out-of-town guests of friends and relatives were: Mrs. L. E. Hall of New Orleans, La., grandmother of the groom; Mrs. and Mrs. Joe Lee McKennon, Mr. and Mrs. Jim Berry, Mr. and Mrs. D. O. Porter, Sr., Misses Cornelia Lee, Sadie Fish, Frances King, and Mr. Newton Chandler of Dumas; Mrs. A. J.
