General Notes: Husband - John Moore

---

In 1777 he came to Cecil township, Washington County, Pennsylvania. He died on the "Forks of the Yough," on the road while moving, leaving his widow to rear the children and pay for the land. The constable, accompanied by Esquire John Donal, came to make a levy of $12, while the widow was in the act of family worship. After the prayers were finished the constable said he would sell no one out who would make a prayer like that, and Esquire John Donal loaned her the $12 to meet the debt.
