Millard Stocker/Sadie MacDonald (Ohio)

This family is located in the 1910 West Virginia census, Marion County, Lincoln District, Farmington Village.Florence M. was 13 and born in Penn.I believe the county was Butler or Luzerne.Although I don't think I am related, here is my story and hopefully you may know something that might help.
My Grandmother (deceased in 1997) was adopted by Donald Stocker and his wife (I think her name was Marjori).She was born in Fairmont, Marion County, West Virginia in 1923 or 1924.She was told that her mother died giving birth to her and her father did not claim the baby at the hospital.Her name on the birth certificate is Billie Juanita Williams. Mother--Olive Goff, Father--John Williams.Donald and Marjori renamed her Rita Lorraine.After having 4 children of their own, they gave my grandmother back to the state of WV where she lived as a foster child until she married. I have pictures of Evelyn Stocker Waltz (Donald's daughter) and she bears a striking resemblance to my grandmother. I think she may be a Stocker, but Marjori destroyed all adoption documents.Might she be Rita's daughter? Found no trace of parents on birth certificate, do you know of this story?
