Frances Moore Christmas name origin
James Christmas (son of John Christmas, early settler in Orange Co, NC) and wife Elizabeth Courtney named their first child Frances Moore Christmas.
Can anyone tell me how or why the name Frances Moore was used for their firstborn?Is there a connection to someone named Frances Moore?I am researching a Moore family that lived close to these Christmases in Orange Co in the late 1700's but have not found their origin.
Does anyone know why James Christmas gave his first child that name?
