Speaking of Collinsville - my gg-grandfather, Thomas Moore, moved there in 1847 with his father James U. Moore and his mother, Rebecca Cook. They had gone out to meet James' brother, Joseph Moore who was a blacksmith married to Sarah or Jane Grub and were Methodist. Any one familiar with these names? Also, can anyone tell me about the bell manufacturing place or name in Belleville? Thanks - Patti in AZ Roland Bauer wrote: > My farm is next to the old Renfro Homestead.
