Clare, I worked on this Moore/Buckingham/Cocke family several years ago for a lady in TX. I lived ~1/2 mile from the L.B. Moore house (before it burned ~3 years ago). Such a tragedy.......'like watching Tara burn. I don't like to post personal information on the 'net, so please email me directly and I'll put you in touch with this lady.

One of his daughters, Carrie B. Moore, married Silas Barksdale Gillespie. He was from Chickasaw County near Egypt, I believe. He worked for the railroad and the family had moved to Tuscaloosa. Carrie died on October 11, 1911, possibly in Tuscaloosa, and is buried in Aberdeen at Odd Fellows Rest. I know nothing more about where her family than what I found on the 1880 census. I believe James Moore was a son of Lucien Blevins Moore and Rebecca J. Buckingham. > Descendants of James Moore　 > > Generation No. 1 > > > 1.
