Her mother was Florence McGuire Larcomb. Census records in 1920 show Dorothy as a "Larcomb", but in 1930 as a step-daughter with the last name "Sparks" which is the name she always used. I have been unable to identify who her father was. She didn't look anything like her mother, and now I wonder if Florence was her birthmother or just a relative that took her in. Do you know the whereabouts of your Dorothy Sparks and what year she may have been born? Thank you. Dena Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
