Dorothy Virginia Masters was the daughter of Alford Pliny Masters and Barbara Jessica Green.

-----
Dorothy enjoyed family research and some of her qualities are reflected in her intro to story of her Great Grandfather John Green copied in part below:

"The Story of John Green
By Dorothy V. Masters May 28, 1972
(Given to The Dayton Cemetery Association)

"Every man is a bundle of his ancestors" is as true today as it was many years so when written by Ralph Waldo Emerson. I feel sorry for the individual who knows nothing about his forbears for he is literally a composite of all of their characteristics whether he likes it or not.

As soon as a baby is born all the doting relatives vie in proclaiming that 'he looks exactly like my side of the family," and judging only by physical appearance they coo and gurgle over the color of his eyes and the shape of his head. Often it is years later before the inherited personality quirks can be recognized."
