WILLIAM MOORE - In presenting a
history of the Moore family, we first give a
traditional account of Benjamin, which is as
follows: He was a baker's boy in one of the
English seaport towns; was stolen and brought to
Philadelphia and there sold for the passage money until
he was of age. He was then presented an axe an
mattock with which to begin his career in life on his
own responsibility. He finally located in New
Jersey, about four miles from where Mt. Holly has since
been founded. This was over two hundred years ago.
The land on which he settled was taken by what was then
known as the tomahawk right. Here he begun
clearing and improving his new habitation. That
old farm still remains in the possession of his
descendants. Next in descent was his son,
Joseph Moore, born on the old homestead in New
Jersey. John Moore, a son of Joseph
Moore, follows next in order, and was born on the
above named farm in New Jersey, in the year 1755, and
located in Washington county, Pa., with his family in
1775. Cyrus Moore, a son of John and
Bathsheba B. Moore, was born in New Jersey, Nov. 1,
1783. He was reared a farmer, and married Sarah
Horner, of Harford county, Maryland, in 1803.
She was born Mar. 5, 1779. They became the parents
of the following children, viz.: Mary,
deceased, her husband's name was Blythe; Susan,
deceased, she was married to a Blazer; William;
Bathsheba, deceased, married a Boring; John,
deceased; Dr. Joseph, of Athens count, Ohio;
Sarah, married a Willis; Cyrus, deceased;
Elizabeth's husband's name was Elliott; and
Dr. Mordecai Moore. In 1816, Cyrus
Moore and family arrived in what was then Columbiana
county, Ohio, now the northwest section of Branch creek
17, Jefferson county, Ohio, and located on 160 acres of
land situated in said section. He had entered this
land the year previous to his arrival and employed a man
to erect a cabin on this tract; save this there were no
improvements. On this farm he passed his remaining
days. He departed this life in the year 1861, and
his wife died in 1859. Our subject, William
Moore, a native of Washington county, Pennsylvania,
was born July 6, 1809; was reared a farmer and educated
at schools common to those days. Married Eliza
Lawrence, of Fayette county, Pa., Apr. 10, 1834.
She was born Feb. 22, 1810. They have but one
child, viz.: George L. Moore. In 1834
Mr. Moore came to his present location. He
owns 574 acres of land, most of which is in Carroll
county, Ohio. Mr. Moore and wife were
members of the Disciples' Church, of which he has been
an elder for forty years. George L. Moore,
the only child of William and Eliza Moore, was
born in Brush Creek township, Jefferson county, Ohio,
Mar. 28, 1835. He was reared a farmer and educated
at Hiram College, and at Hopedale and Mt. Union schools.
Married Ann Lister, of Washington county, Pa.,
Nov. 19, 1856. She was born August 20, 1834.
They are the parents of seven children, viz.:
Emma, who married Lewis Moore, William J., Frank
C., Margaret A., John R., Eliza B. and Mary E.
George L. and his parents reside in the same
house. His business is farming and stock dealing.
Cyrus Moore was a soldier in the war of 1812.
He was the justice of the peace for twenty-one years.
The old family were Friends or "Quakers."
