Dear Friends, I am very sad to inform all of you that Bob Moore died today. Most of you knew him as a nice man on the other end of an e-mail, always willing to help when he could. The man that wrote a great book on Northeastern Nelson County (Bloomfield, Fairfield & Chaplin) which he donated to the Nelson County Genealogical Roundtable. So many of you purchased the book and found it to be such a big help in your research. We, at NCGR knew him as a man who cared so much for us and contributed so much of his time and effort to our cause. He donated two books, he wrote many articles for our quarterly, the Genealogist. He kept us in line by insisting upon consistency and accuracy. He was working with us up until a few days ago, proof-reading our next Deed Book, and making a list of the Virginia books he wanted us to purchase for our new genealogy library, even though he was very ill. I got an e-mail from Bob a few days ago that simply read "I've got a lot of pain right now." Another one followed almost immediately,"I'm still bothering you and will continue to do so!" Bob The nice man known to his friends as "Bobby" was actually Dr. Robert P. Moore, who worked at the Pentagon translating sensitive material from the Russian Military and so much more. His work for our country will always be remembered. Please put his wife Pat on your prayer list. We will never forget "Bobby" DeAnna Nichols Fisher, President Nelson County Genealogical Roundtable

DeAnna, Pat will be in my prayers. this is just so sad. can you email me privately with details. were it not for " Bob " I would not have all the info I have on my Duncan line. I can't tell you how much I appreciated his guidance in learning genealogy. I feel like I have lost a close friend though I did not have a chance to meet him in person. emailing back and forth is the way we talked. he was a kind, generous man who helped so many of us. Carlene
