Moore Family, Residents 1939-1943 During the years that the Carancis were away from Louisville but still owned the house at 1145 Main, they rented it out. A former resident of Louisville, Beverly Moore Barday, has stated that starting when she was in about the eighth grade, her family rented the house at 1145 Main after moving here from the Monarch mine camp just south of Louisville. (Her father, Alvin Clement "Clem" Moore, was the mine clerk at the Monarch Mine.) Indeed, 1145 Main is listed in Louisville directories as having been the residence of A.C. Moore from at least 1939 to 1943. It was not unusual for families who lived in Superior or at mine camps in the area to actually move to Louisville when it was time for the children to start attending Louisville Junior High and High School, as no transportation was provided for them to get to the school. The preceding research is based on a review of relevant and available online County property records, census records, oral history interviews, Louisville directories, and Louisville Historical Museum maps, files, obituary records, and historical photographs from the collection of the Louisville Historical Museum. 4
