Any Anglican or Episcopal records? My ancestor Alfred Moore lived in MNRamsey during the Civil War. Though he was a native of England, and never "naturalized" he fought for the north as the leader of a band unit that led soldiers to the battle of Gettysburg from MN. Any information on the Moore family is appreciated.
