MOORE NEWS Volume II May 14, 1997 Issue 22 SALUTATIONS This issue is devoted to the wonderful contribution by FLORENCE MOORE which she contributed some time ago, but space has been limited. Please thank Florence for her contribution. Used in combination with the Maryland marriages from last week, Maryland searchers have a treasure trove. Florence's information is especially interesting in view of the discovery two weeks ago that the Richard Moore family and the Henry Moore family of Princess Anne County VA moved to Maryland in the late 1600s. Accompanying Florence's Maryland records is a list of Maryland Marriages contributed by SHIRL BUCKLER. Many thanks to both of you for making this information available to subscribers of MOORE NEWS. *********** FLORENCE MOORE (fmoore@gulf.net) Aug 1776 Census, St John's Parish: Moore, James 40 1779 Oaths of Fidelity; Moore: Elijah, John, Benj'n, James of Benj'n, James Sr, Zadock, Joseph & James Index to Maryland Wills, Administrations & Inv (Pr Geo, MD) Moore: Zadoch 13, Feb 1797; Zadock (EX or Adm- Samuel Evans) A 26 mar 1790 BK 'ST' 3-87; 13 feb 1797 BK 'ST' 3-93 & 28 jun 1798 'ST' 3-106.
