RESPONSES MARV Moore (CMoore7949) responding to the information of Navy PM@aol.com ***** I saw your info in the Moore newsletter. Maybe you can help find 5th gt grandfather. The following piece comes from a Kane County, Illinois 1898 gazeteer and the information was given by Daniel B(ovee) Moore. His grandfather John More/Moore (ca 1761 NJ) is in the Ovid, Seneca County NY - 1810, LeRoy - 1820 and Royalton NY - 1830 census'. Property records show his wife's name as Catherine. Likely children are John C Moore ca 1796 NJ; Mary More ca 1785-90 NJ married Anson Williams ca 1781; Jeremiah More ca 1789 NJ married (Nancy Williams?), Enoch S More ca 1791 NJ married Hannah; Elizabeth More Hunt ca 1790 NJ; William More ca 1804 NY; Peter More ca 1805 NY; and about 4 others (Charles ca 1785 NJ?, Issac?). By affidavit in DAR ancestor file "John C More and his predecessors spelled their name with one "O"." Jeremiah More and Enoch S More (it took an Act of Congress to get his bounty land claim) were in the NY Militia in the War of 1812, John C More may also have been in the same war. Where did they come from in New Jersey? Was John More/Moore known as John Weaver More (John More, a weaver?) in Somerset County NJ 1793? Who was Catherine? Was Enoch More who died in Hector NY related? Was he related to John Moore Jr who was listed in "First Settlers of the Passaic Valley" who lived about 15-20 miles away in Mendon NY? "DANIEL B. Moore.- This age is not wholly utilitarian. On all l sides we see some earnest souls laboring devotedly to bring about a recognition of some higher principle in life than selfish greed, and stimulating in the hearts of others a desire for spiritual progress. The friends of Mr. Moore will see in his years of faithful work in all forms of religious endeavor a source of present good to the community, and long after he has entered into his final rest his influence will continue in everlasting circles. Mr. Moore, who is now a highly respected citizen of St. Charles, Illinois, was born January 7, 1829, in the town of Leroy, Genesee county, New York, and belongs to a family that was established in New Jersey at a very early day in the history of this country. His grandfather, John Moore, was a native of that state, and successfully engaged in the occupation of weaving throughout his active business life. He was a well-educated man, and held numerous public positions of honor and trust. John C. Moore, our subject's father, was born in New Jersey, in (12/30)1796, and about 1804 removed with his father to (Ovid) Seneca county, New York, becoming a pioneer of that region, where, in the midst of the wilderness, he grew to manhood. There he was married to Elizabeth Bovee......(dau of Mathew Bovee and Maria Schermerhorn)......" --- Looking for help answering the questions above. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - JULIA WOOD (juliaw9@mail.idt.net) responding to EMalloy739@aol.com *****The reason I am replying is that my William Claiborne Moore of Carroll Co. TN had a brother who died in 1839. The mystery is written in the family bible, "William C.'s wife Telithia (MARTIN) Moore, decest January the 22, 1839 and was buried in the state of MO. Cape Girardeau County, 1 Mile & 1/2 from the town of Jackson near the old Cape Rode leading to ?com village, also, W.C. Moore's mother, brother and sister died in the same year and laid at that plase." The mystery is, we don't know what they were doing in MO. I found a William C. Moore in the Cape Girardeau County census of 1840, but can't be sure it is the right one as he had a female living with him the right age to be his wife, and they didn't have the right number of children. Also, this William wasn't living near any Martins or Moores which would lead you to believe that he didn't have relatives there. He and his wife Charlotte (Martin) Moore, (the sister of his first wife),whom he married in 1841, were found in Carroll Co. TN again with all the children in 1850. The children were: Liuza Marium, b. 15 Dec 1826, Nancy Jane, b. 20 Feb 1828, Mary Frances, b. 14 June 1829, William Simon, b. 7 Jan 1831, John Greenberry, b. 10 Feb 1832, Evaline Fallisseann, b. 17 Apr 1833, Morgan Thomas, b. 29 May 1834, Susan Ann, b. 8 Mar 1836, James Bond, b. 1837, and Jacob Browning, b. 8 Jan 1839. Jacob was born just 14 days before Telithia died, indicating that she died of complications of child birth. Jacob does not appear on the census of 1850, so he either died, or was left with relatives. I did find a J.B. Moore, age 21 and married, in Carroll Co. TN in 1860. This could be Jacob. I am doubly related to these Moores as Mary Frances Moore's son, George W. French, married Armittie Thomas Moore, the daughter of Morgan Thomas Moore (both children in the family above). George and Armittie were my grandparents. They were first cousins. All of this is leading to the fact that your Elias could be the brother of my William Claiborne Moore, if they were in the same location. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - JIM BOB SWAFFORD (JIMBOBTX2AOL.COM) responding to KERRY STAHL (KerryStahl) *****My wife's line of Moore/Eastlands came to Texas from Sparta and Eastland TN, White Co. Her 4G-Grandmother was born in Smith Co TN, only a short distance from White County. Her name was Frances (Fannie) Bates Moore. Her parents are listed in the old Eastland Family Bible-1803- as Robert L. Moore and Ann L. (Unk). We know of only one other child by Robert and Ann Moore. His name was Armstead Moore. Fannie B. Moore married a Nicholas Washington Eastland, born in Woodford Co, KY. Nicholas' father, Thomas Butler Eastland, moved his entire family to White Co TN sometime in the early 1800s. His sons also moved their families to White County, including Nicholas Eastland and his wife, Fannie Bates Moore. It seems reasonable to assume that Fannie was moving closer to Mom and Dad. In 1834 Nicholas and the Eastland brothers and their families moved to Texas. They settled in Fayette and Bastrop counties. Our Moores may be related. I've spent most of my time working on the Eastland side and very little on the Moores on my wife's side. In closing I also have Moores on my side which hail from Alabama. I have a decent amount of information on them. My Alabama Moores were located in and around Clay County. Should anyone care to share information, let me know. RESEARCH JANALEE GARN (JJgarn@msn.com) heard (and heeded) the plea for New England information. Many thanks, Janalee. *****I went to the LDS Family History Center and found the following information.
