General Notes: Husband - James L. Moore


He was sixteen years of age when he accompanied his parents to their new home in Jefferson County, Pennsylvania. As a young man he went to Elk County, where he married, and spent ten years, but at the end of that time returned to Jefferson County, and purchased a tract of wild land, to which he was obliged to cut a road, the country at that time being so little developed. He continued the improvement and cultivation of his farm until the death of his wife, when he made his home with his children. Farming always claimed the principal part of his attention, but he also converted his own timber into square lumber, and engaged in speculating to a limited extent. In early life both he and his wife joined the Baptist Church, and ever lived in harmony with its teachings.


Notes: Marriage

They were the parents of twelve children, four died in infancy.
