Carol: One of us has the Moore info wrong. My research has proven to me that Thomas D. Moore and James B. Moore were sons of Manning L. Moore and Mary Ann Rowland. Their first three sons, John A., James B., and Manning C., were born out of wedlock and their names were legally changed from ROLAND to MOORE February 22, 1850, by Manning Moore. Manning and Mary Ann were married in Emanuel Co. April 20, 1847; therefore, Thomas D., born July 1849, was legitimate. Olivia 1850 Emanuel Co., GA; District 28, Household 490/490: Manning Moore 35 Mary Ann 25 John 5 James 4 Manning 2 Thomas 11/12 (et.al.) Next door is James L. Moore 37 living alone, and it is my understanding he never married. 1860 Emanuel Co., GA; District 54, Household 381/388: Manning Moore 46 Mary 39 John 15 James 14 Manning 13 Thomas 10 (et.al.) Two houses away is James Moore 47, living alone. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carol MIller" <cmiller20@comcast.net> To: <gaemanue@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, February 01, 2010 8:03 AM Subject: Re: [GAEMANUE] Dempsey Moore, Mary Ann Thompson, Dempsey's mother > Tina, > > I don't do a lot of Moore research since this isn't a direct line of mine, > which is why I was asking for help.

Tina, I don't do a lot of Moore research since this isn't a direct line of mine, which is why I was asking for help. I am, however, accumulating quite a few Moores, between my husband's family and mine, as collateral lines. I did find that Thomas D. Moore b July 1849 was a brother of James B. Moore b 1848 (who married Nancy Ann Anderson, sister of my greatgrandmother Elizabeth). Dempsey b 1832 was a son of Jesse Moore, while Thomas D Moore and James B Moore were sons of Jesse's brother James L. Moore. Thomas D Moore married Martha Hall, a daughter of my 2greatgrandparents John Choice Hall and Margaret Rowell. Someone else on the list can probably better help you with Dempsey's children, but it sounds like you are on the right track.

Judith, Another example of a connection is that James B. Moore b 1846,who married Nancy Ann Anderson, daughter of Arelzaman Anderson and Mary Marsh, was a grandson of Jesse Moore's brother James. Carol

Judith, I don't have any concrete evidence. It is just based on interconnections that I have found in some records - such as - James Marsh, father of Mary Marsh Anderson, being executor for Gideon Hayes' estate, and in postings by other researchers. If you are looking for absolute proof, it is probably gone up in ashes. But maybe not.... who knows what might turn up someday. I think that the use of the name Arezaman here, as in Arezaman Moore, says a lot though.

RE: "Verifying" in ref to and endorsement of Olivia's Memo I cannot imagine a "24,000 ancestor " 'site'...................do you mean all total for all users or just your own? The problem is that like so many other things in the tech era genealogy has become a sort of game, or fad...the more ancestors one can claim (with dates and names , seldom with real life stories and places---proven/documented) I've tried to say this before and was told I was being unkind, mean, etc......this isn't about c hatting and accepting "nicely" whatever is said or put on line.............I spent a lifetime in the study, training, and lifetime hands on work of research. Now everyone considers him/her self a historian/genealogist if he/she can work a computer. In the old days we wrote letters to others ...back and forth...and had time to work out mistakes and conjectures before those mistakes were spread world wide in print. The root of the growing problem goes ever further and deeper than Olivia's urge to 'verify'! Several years ago a series of complete mistakes....dates many years off base , names and marriages wrong...and all of those with definite correct sources which could have been cited.....but instead the individual simply lifted the old mistakes from a volume known to be filled with mistakes. Then she fed all that and more into a web site from whence it's been picked up and entered into others..............second hand, third hand and farther away from the primary sources.............................. What I continue to hope is that these sites will come up with easy methods for noting whether material is from primary sources (court records, family Bibles, etc) or from another wed site, etc.....maybe italics for the latter............... It's nice to write that you appreciate getting corrections, etc..............BUT....there may be be 'researchers' all over the world who lift the initial errors as 'fact', then continue on their way and never revisit the site from which they took the later-corrected error........WHERE does that leave the world of online research? Many seem to see this as just chatting via computers and are offended that their too-easy material is questioned. One particular Southern problem in research: And I know this from hearing it for over 40 years............we love telling stories and if we don't know a genuine one we're very happy to make up one to fill the gap! Over and over I see the phrase "according to family tradition"....and find that only one individual told the off base story, usually one which any serious historian would recognize as untrue. Before putting any old story you're told on line, check it out with others....in person or by phone! Thanks, Olivia. Ihese years online flawed info might gradually be phased out with a nice correction note to the person trying to help everyone but inadverantly making a human mistake. Olivia, as long as you have been at this hobby I'm sure you took a few minutes to go back to the post and write a nice note to the poster about the error and give him the right info so the following is not meant for you. In my experinces in this hobby over the years I would a thousand times rather get a nice note of correction on my errors than someone that finds my error to not bring it to my attention and then take much more time to write a put down and reprimand about my error to the whole list. That practice will make me and probably make other well intentioned people, trying to help others, hesitant to put their info on the www for fear of being chatised. Imo it's easier, and takes less time, to politely help someone that's posted bad info online than it is to point fingers and get into a gotcha thing. But back on topic, everyone has known since day one doing this stuff that you "must" verify anything you find before spending many years on the wrong track.

So who was the father of Eliza's first children? Was she married before Jackson, or were they illegitimate? Today I checked this out for myself and found Jackson's age was listed as 34, nor 24. Ten years in a person's age makes a lot of difference in determining parentage. This was probably just a typo on the part of the person who posted it, but we all need to be careful about copying stuff to our files. Olivia -- I am using the free version of SPAMfighter.

I feel the same way you do about it. I wonder what she has, but hate to spend that much money just to find out. I get the newsletter, too, and it appears from what I read there that she might have some things Ancestry.com doesn't have. I know she's made personal visits to the courthouses and found material that is probably not online. I read a message from her a few years ago stating she had started doing research for her children (didn't we all?), but had determined her children were not in any way interested in it, so she had decided to sell it off; it was after that when I learned she'd put up a website. I don't know of anyone who subscribes to the site, but if anybody on the List does, I'd sure like to hear more about it, too.

Anyone on the list a subscriber? I have been curious about her research, but hate to spend the money on her website/s unless it's really worth it. I know she's done a ton of research, such as evidenced in this book. Carol B. Miller Olivia: I have been thinking along the same line as Carol. I receive Jeanette's emails with bits and pieces of what she has on her websites. Just wonder if it's worth the money.
