Notes on Mary Margaret Moore
It is not known whether Mary Margaret Moore was the daughter or
granddaughter of Lemuel Moore. On her death certificate her father is
listed as Lem Moore and her mother is listed as Nancy Moore. Since Lemuel
was 63 years older than Mary, it is not known if he was her father or
grandfather. Since the
only wife we know about for Lemuel was Ann, it's not known if Ann was Mary's
mother, step-mother or grandmother.

until the taking of Cornwallace at York. He was discharged at Augusta,
Georgia, and again at Richmond, Va in May of 1783. William misplaced his
discharge and land warrant for 400 acres.
