The Warren Tribune, Friday, 2-19-1904
William A. Moore
William A. Moore, son of Samuel and Mehetible Moore, was born in Fayette county, PA, Sept.
3, 1826, died Feb. 10, 1904, aged 77 years, 5 months and 7 days. He was married to
Elizabeth Chopson March 9, 1853. She deceased had a short illness of ten days duration
through which he suffered intensely from a complication of stomach troubles. He was
impressed that two years would end his separation from his loving mate, and, it proved to
be only one day longer. Four children were born to this couple, three sons and one
daughter--Mariman W., Edwin C., Franklin O and Josephine. Mariman died at the age of
three and one-half years. The other three with a large circle of friends are left to
mourn their loss.
His death takes the last link of a chain of eight children, while the death of his wife
broke a chain of the same number. The funeral services were held at the home of his son,
E.C. Moore, on Friday morning, Rev. J.E. Etter being in charge. The burial was in
Woodlawn cemetery.
