This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Moore Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/ABC.2ACE/3698.1 Message Board Post: Dear Gary: There are many possibilities, but I would lean toward exploring John Moore Sr.: 1803 PPTL, Washington Co. VA: (Upper): MOORTE, Joseph, Elizabeth, William, John, F. Jepthae, John N. (North) Fork; (Lower), Henry Bruster Valley, Arthur Jun., Martin (nr. Fulkersons), Richard, Hugh & Co. As you know likely, Zachariah had only been in RCV a few years before 1850; in 1845 he was still in the Upper Dist. of Washington Co. where he is enumerated very near the following other MOOREs: John Jr., Samuel, & Elisha (note that Elisha was also in RCV in 1850). Do you know or have any remote clue to Barbara's surname? Thanks, Jack Hockett, Tlas101@aol.com
