Married1523 1920 Sep 61523 at Detroit, MI1523. Ethel and Philip were married by Minister C W Lowrie; witnesses were Mrs B V Smith (Blanche Veazie Smith, her mother) of Detroit, and A C Smith (her father) of Detroit.

Philip's middle name is provided by his WWII draft registration170 card. In 1920, while residing in Swissvale, PA, in the household of Ethel's parents, Philip is listed as a clerk in a department store. Later that year, at the time of his marriage1532 to Ethel, he was a clerk.

In Jan, 1920, Ethel resided4431 with her parents in Swissvale, PA. Residing with them, as a lodger, was Philip Mastin, a department store clerk. In September of 1920, Ethel married Philip. Sometime before 1927, Ethel and Philip were divorced, as she married second Mason Terrell. Ethel G Terrell was granted a divorce5390 from Mason Terrell, Oct 1, 1934, for extreme and repeated cruelty. The divorce was uncontested, and no alimony was granted.

The 1943 obituary5291 of Ethel's mother, Blanche (Veazie) Smith, mentions Blanche as "dear mother of Mrs Herbert L Moore."

Because Ethel's birth date matches, and Ethel is mentioned in mother Blanche's obituary as Mrs Moore, it is likely that Ethel is the Ethel G Moore listed4632 in the Mich Death Index, born 6 Oct 1903, died 27 Mar 1985. The obituary5391, published Mar 28, 1985, mentions her as the wife of the late Herbert L Moore, mother of the late Robert Mastin, and mother-in-law of Mrs Robert (Hazel) Mastin. Survivors were four grandchildren, seven great-grandchildren, and three great-great grandchildren.
