There has been quite a bit of discussion on the list lately about the Moore's of Laurel County Kentucky. I have a Moore in my family history also. This is Marilla Moore, she was my gg grandmother on my father's side. The only information I have about her is that she was born in 1816 in Laurel County, married my gg grandfather Riley Watkins in 1832 in Laurel County, and died in 1895 in Laurel County. That is all that I know about her, so would appreciate any information. Olan Watkins

I don't think Laurel Co KY existed until abt 1826 if my memory serves me correctly. Maybe it would help if you could find the county where Marilla Moore was born and then check out the Moores of that County. She may have been living in one of the adjacent Counties that was partly taken to create Laurel Co KY. Thanks for sharing and good luck in your search for Marilla's parents. Please let everyone know if you find them.
