Hello David,
I'm related to the last person listed in your posting: Glenna Pearl Moore. She was my
mom's mom. Glenna and Ernest had two children: Ernest Joseph, Jr. (b. March 24, 1914 -
d. July 31, 1987) and Ruth (b.Sep. 10, 1918 - d. Nov. 14, 1997). My Mom, Ruth Blankenship,
m. Norman Marshall (1913-1963). I am the youngest of 4 kids.
I stopped by the old Mt. Nebo church cemetery a few years ago to view some of the old
Moore family sites, and try to piece together some of the family names. To add a few bits
of info to your list, Samuel Moore's (David 2, Zebulon) wife, Ruth Miller's
parents were Frederick Miller and Charity Adams. Charity's dad was Hugh Adams, a
brother to Christina Adams, who married Zebulon Moore. That makes Ruth Miller and Samuel
Adams second cousins. Small world back then!
Samual Moore and Ruth Miller had 3 children. David Frederick Moore (b. 10 Aug 1867),
Charity Moore (b. 11 Jan 1869 and died about 8 months later), and Margaret Isabelle Moore
(b. 12 Nov 1873). Our family history has her name as Margaret Isabelle, but she was known
as Isabelle. We have the she married James Knight, and she is the Isabelle who married
James Knight and built the Rock House in Martinsville.
Thanks, David, for posting all the info on the rest of the Moore clan. I can't wait to
decipher all the intermingling Martinsville families. I now have more reasons to return to
Mt. Nebo.
Where do you fit in with which Moore family line?
