Does anyone have any information about James Rutheford MOORE b 1798, who went to Texas? He is the sister of Jane Moore m. 2nd Charles Fitzgerald Tiffany 6 Jan 1853. I have a feeling this may be why Emerine Tiffany WILLS came to TX in the late 1850's. There are many MOORES around Tyrrell. I feel sure some of them must be connected. One of the WILLS girls ( Susan Vermillion WILLS) married John G MOORE (30 Jan 1826 - 2 July 1880). The names the MOORE girls married are: DREW, JONES, WARE, TRICE, MC FARLAND, MARTIN, ALLEN Their sons were: Edmund and John G Jr. I am wondering if the John M MOORE who lives on Moore Ave in Tyrrell TX could be a descendent. There are MOORES & WARES in the cemetery plot with my grandmother and greatgrandmother (Martha Wills BOOTH and Emerine Tiffany WILLS). I am still trying to find out why Emerine, a widow, came to TX and if that person came before 1846 for the First Families of TX. Any help will be more that appreciated.
