"Irish" James Moore of Roane Co., TN Info
Posted by: Barbara (ID *****0914) Date: July 06, 2008 at 09:00:38
  of 3146

Researching my "Irish" James Moore family. He was one of four full blood brothers (George, Noble, Alexander and James), a half brother, John and half sister Isabella of Ireland and immigrated to Roane Co., Tennessee before 1797.
Having been married to "unknown" in Ireland and having 6 children, his wife apparently died, he immigrated to Roane Co. (believe formerly Knox Co.), TN and married Jane Reed. Five children were born of this marriage in Tennessee. I descend from "Irish" James through his son James H. Moore of Roane Co., and Oppelo, Conway Co., Arkansas.

1. In his will (dated 23 Jun 1843 and proved 5 Jan 1846), he stated "first I direct my body to be locally intered in the family burial ground in Roane Co. in a manner suitable to my condition in life". Does any one know the location of this family burial ground? Are there grave markers there?

2. Several researchers have published his middle initial as being M and some thought his middle name was Marion. Does anyone have any documentation listing either his middle initial or name. I am looking for actual documentation.

3. I have read they came from the Dublin area. Does anyone have any actual documentation on this? Do you have any documentation on which ship they came over on?

4. Also trying to contact Robert Edwin Moore who researched our "Irish" Moore family, specifically Noble Moore's Family and contributed his Noble Moore Family research to a book (I believe the title was Moore Ancestors of Noble Hugh Moore or maybe that was just the title of his research. I corresponded with him a few years ago but have lost his email address. Would appreciate the actual name of the book that was published and where I might obtain a copy. Would also appreciate his email address or ask him to please contact me direct brod1280@aol.com.

Thanks for your assistance.

Please email me direct at brod1280@aol.com.

Thanks,
Barbara
