Ephraim Joseph

Martin Luther King Jr. (born Michael King Jr.) was born January 15th, 1929, in Atlanta, Georgia to Baptist minister Martin Luther King (born Michael King) and his wife, Alberta. He was one of the most prominent leaders in the civil rights movement from 1955 until his assassination in 1968, preaching Christian values and social equality for all races. King advanced civil rights for people of color in the United States through nonviolence and civil disobedience. With inspiration from both his own Christian beliefs and the nonviolent activism of Gandhi, he was able to lead targeted, and most importantly nonviolent, resistance against Jim Crow laws and other forms of discrimination in the United States. He is most famously known for being one of the leaders of the The March on Washington in 1963, where he delivered his famous Martin Luther King Jr. Last Speech "I Have a Dream" on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in DC. See Passage from the "I Have a Dream Speech" for part of the speech.

I was born in San Jose, California and have lived in the Silicon Valley Bay Area my entire life. In fact, I'm 3rd generation San Jose which is a rarity these days. I was raised by my mother Kathleen Rae (Kroetch) Pinna with the help of my grandmother Marian Joyce (Benning) Kroetch. I spent my early years in the Cambrian area of San Jose, a few years in Palo Alto, and own homes in Cambrian and Willow Glen California. I attended St. Francis Cabrini k-8th grade, Bellarmine College Preparatory and Santa Clara University. My passion has always been building things since an early age. I worked at the Santa Clara Valley Contractors Association (SCVCA) for my mentor Larry Gates while attending high school and each weekend answered the phones (aka switchboard) for the Jesuit Priests on a work scholarship program. I continued to work at SCVCA while attending college where I began the Santa Clara Entrepreneur Organization (SCEO), was active in the Student Senate and Off Campus Student Association, and in my sophomore year began the first version of AncientFaces. Post graduation I went on to manage a sub-contracting kitchen & bath remodeling company for three years, then worked as VP of Business Development at an eDiscovery company in Palo Alto from 2006 until the end of 2010. In early 2011, I began working full time on AncientFaces and have been at it ever since. I am humbled that I get to help build the application and community that makes AncientFaces. I married Lisa Michelle Kinslow on June 14th, 2014 in Pebble Beach, and currently reside in Willow Glen California approximately 4 miles away from where both sets of my grandparents used to live around the 1950's.

I married James Willett Moseley on September 15th, 1962 in Fort Lee New Jersey. We were married by the Mayor of Fort Lee, NJ and had a party that night at the Hotel Astor. My name was Sandra Amanda Svendsen Moseley. We had a long Honeymoon. Our first stop was to visit his partner, Gray Barker in Clarksburg, West Virginia. Then we went to North Carolina to visit his Mom's former housekeeper, Mrs. Gaskill. Then we visited his old Nanny, Miss Agatha Graits who warned me that Jim Moseley was the cheapest and meanest man on Planet Earth. That proved to be true. Then we visited New Orleans where we met with Lee Harvey Oswald. (Jim had spent a lot of time going to Cuba.) Then we went to Mexico for the next five months where he wouldn't pay one dollar a day for air-conditioning. He bought a jade pre-Colombian piece in Mexico. He devoted his entire adult life to studying flying saucers but never believed in them. He spent all of his time debunking anyone who encountered UFO's. He had access to the Pentagon, [I was with him] and was given the assignment to debunk everyone who talked about UFO's. He had eleven million dollars and lost ten million dollars on the stock market making bad investments. His trusted CPA accountants made sure that this multimillionaire's daughter inherited $34,000. He would humiliate waitresses and cab drivers by giving them dime tips. He pretended to be a lifelong Democrat but he was secretly a Republican. He was a dedicated atheist and on his 75th birthday he "regretted being smug" about his atheism because he lived in constant fear of death. He put his daughter [disabled because she was given LSD twice by his girlfriend's daughters] on Social Security at the age of 19, and made sure she was homeless until he died when she was 48 and he was 81. When I paid for a one-bedroom apartment for her for 6 months in advance, her father told her to leave town, and she did. So she remained homeless for another 25 years. Jim's father was General George Van Horn Moseley and his mother was Florence Barber Moseley of the Barber Steamship Company. He wrote books about flying saucers and grave robbing in Peru. Jim purposely spelled my name wrong because he did not want his 7 grandchildren [who were all adopted as soon as they were born] to know anything about me. He never had a real job and never earned a living. He lived on a trust fund and old family investments. In 1964 he met the Amazing Randi, a magician, and decided he wanted to get a divorce so he could travel around the world with James Randi. [Who is now legally married to another man]. After his divorce, James Randi went to Ecuador with Jim Moseley, but he brought along his own teenage traveling companion and had no plans of traveling around the world with Jim Moseley. In 1965, I immediately continued my new career as a writer, and within a year, I was a co-author of a child care book in hardcover and paperback with Dr. Albert Ellis and Dr. Janet L. Wolfe. Jim told everybody that I was a waitress which was never true. I have had a long career as a Handwriting Analyst [The World's Funniest Handwriting Analyst"] and later a Document Examiner and have been in Who's Who in America for over 20 years. Jim died in Key West, Florida and after having a quick funeral with no attendees, he was cremated. His only daughter received $34,000 in payment for her 29 years of loyalty to him as a homeless woman who kept her artwork in the trunk of his car. His divorce agreement with me said he would put half of his money in trust for her, [about 5 and a half million dollars] but his New York CPA accountants (father and son) told him not to put any money in trust for her, so he didn't. Volkman, Jim's accountant, made her use a lawyer of his choice and that lawyer got $110,000. She got $34,000. Jim died with $780,000 cash in one bank account. Of course, Betty did not give me any documents out of loyalty to her cheapskate father. She is 60 years old on August 4, 2024 and still homeless.
