It says they were married in 1894

I hope these are the right people.

Virginia Wright apparently married William James Sames. Some of their children's death records and census records are available there as well.

Here's an Alexis Moore, born 1836 in Kentucky, lived in Jackson county, Missouri in 1850
FamilySearch Record Search

That Census records lists a William W Moore, age 28, a Eliza Moore, age 26, and another Moore (can't really read it, but it's not Alexis) age 23 in one household.

In another household: Ira (?) Moore, age 56. Catherine, age 57, Robert, age 20, and Alexis, age 14. My best guess would be that Ira and Catherine are Alexis' parents.

I can't find an Elks Cemetery in Webb county, Texas. Of course, there is the Elks organization, so it may have something to do with that.

Here's some Missouri Soldier's Records. Maybe that will be helpful
Missouri Digital Heritage : Soldiers' Records: War of 1812 - World War I
Texas Marriage records as well:
Free Texas Marriage Records Online
Missouri marriage records as well:
Missouri Marriage Records, Adair to Dade County

I hope all that helps.
