AR., census. His wife, "Mary" was my gg.grandmother, ("Martha Ann Dawes") older sister, & born as Mary Elizabeth Dawes, the oldest daughter of William Dawes and Mariah Todd. Martin L. Moore & Mary were in Madison Co. TN., in 1870, and moved from there to Woodruff Co. AR., apparently by 1872 when son Frank, was born. Martin L. Moore was the son of Stephen Moore and "Mary Sarah Duffey". The children in Martin L. Moore's household in 1880, along with his wife Mary, were: Martha 14 (she was 6 in 1870) Matt 12 - (a daughter, likely named Mary and called Mattie or "Matt". Sally 10 - (Was she the Sally Moore who married Wm. Carney in 1893? Frank - 8 - (1st child born in AR.) Egbert 6 - (Also born in AR. Another son, shown only as "J." Moore was in the home in 1870, at the age of 1. He was likely named James, after a brother and an uncle of Mary's. He has apparently died by 1880 when he would have appeared at the age of about 11. I have much to share about both Mary and Martin's ancestry and wish for any descendants to contact me at: christip@southshore.com Thank-you, Christi
