User Home Pages: Marilyn's Page: Her Moores and Surnames
Marilyn Moore is my maiden name and my married name is Heckel. I am researching my side of the family. The surnames of my direct ancestors are Moore, Ferguson, Mann, Penland, Gibson, Love, White, Bonham, Kerr, Neal, Fitzpatrick, Douglas, Laurie, Jordan, Lockhart, Mallet, Wells, Burnette, and Smith so far. Most of them lived in the South, especially around North Carolina, Virginia, and Tennessee. Some around Arkansas, Texas, and Oklahoma. My earliest Moores came to America in mid to late 1700's via a shipwreck off the Carolinas. There were 4 Moore brothers--3 went west to Western N.C. and one went north into Virginia or farther. I will appreciate anyone who has this information. My earliest Moore was William Moore who died in Burke Co., N.C. in 1824 and his wife Lucinda died in 1816, also in Burke Co. The records were destroyed during the Civil War. | Marilyn's Page: Her Moores and Surnames Updated September 5, 2000 |
