I know of only two daughters from his marriage to Mary J. MOORE. He was killed in the 1880's. Mary J. MOORE, d. Dec. 25, 1854 in Knox Co. died February 16, 1936 in Choctaw County, Soper, OK. She was the dau. of an Isaac MOORE and wife, Nancy who poss. was a BAKER. Although I am not a direct descendant, Mary J. MOORE married as the 2nd wife to Addison MERIDA-MEREDITH, b. Jan 21, 1855 in Clay Co.; mar. Sept. 11, 1884; d. Jun 10, 1930 in Choctaw Co., Soper, OK. My connection is through Addision MERIDA-MEREDITH who was the son of Mahala TAYLOR (older sister to my g-grandfather, Harrison TAYLOR) and Bradley MEREDITH who lived in Clay Co. Perhaps you could share what you have with me, let me know exactly how you connect to this family and I can send you a rather extensive file that I have. I can also put you in touch with at least one direct descendant, Janie MERIDA WATT. Somewhere around here I have a photo of Addison and Mary J. MOORE MERIDA-MEREDITH that Janie sent to me. Let me hear from you. Joyce Taylor Collins La Palma, CA
