Message board:
James Moore and Ellender Hamilton are also my
ggggg-grandparents. I am a descendant of their granddaughter Nancy
Moore who married Wesley Reynolds. The Owsley county Moore line is not
connected to the Moses Moore/James Moore line out of Greene Co as far as
I can tell.
James Moore and Cornelius Bowman and their families were among the first
settlers of Madison County Ky.
about 1795 James moved his family to Owsley county, where he was the first
permanent settler.
