The middle of three children, Doris Mairlynn Moats was born in Lawrence County during the Depression to Cleburn H.Glover and Nellie

Shikle Glover.  Marrying Samuel Cecil Moats in 1946, they made a home to raise five children in the Red Hill Community.  After earning her

college degree in Accounting, Mairlynn owned and operated a lady's clothing store, M-Casuals, worked at Tennessee Valley Rehabilitation,

the Lawrence County Archives, served as an election pole worker at Fairfield and operated a Red Wiggler Fishing Worm Farm alongside her

husband.  With type O negative blood, Mairlynn helped save countless lives with her 5+gallon donations.  At the Archives,Mairlynn scanned the

Moulton Advertiser and created an Index of Obituaries, Marriages, Communities and Roads beginning with the 1905 newspapers.  Instead

of them having to search numerous newspapers, her special project makes it easier for genealogists seeking family information and

information on World War II Lawrence County Veterans to locate and reference sought after historical facts.  Varied interests kept Mairlynn

busy with sewing, gardening and canning, artwork coloring and landscape painting, fishing, hummingbirds, antiquing and traveling to dig

gold and diamonds for fun adventures.  Previously surviving 2 bouts of cancer, her cancer returned with intensity.  Mairlynn was able to return

home with Hospice care and be surrounded by her family.

She is preceded in death by her parents, husband, and brother J.C.Glover.
