The dedication of the Captain William Moore cemetery in Mattie, KY took
place on October 11th at 12:00 PM as scheduled with Lloyd Licco Moore
serving as Master of Ceremonies. The chain link fence was totally
completed and the cemetery was cleared of all overgrowth and brush for the
first time in many years. A new flag pole with a new American flag was in
place.

An inspiring program that included the placing of American Flags on the
graves of Captain William Moore and his first wife, Nancy Thompson
Moore, daughter of Revolutionary War Soldier, Richard Thompson, was
presented by the Louisa, KY Chapter of the the Daughters of the American
Revolution under the direction of Regent Beulah L. Greene.

Following the Daughters of the American Revolution program, the Honor
Guard from Louisa Post 89 of the American Legion, led by Andy Marcum,
Commander, raised the colors, played the National Anthem and gave a 21
gun salute.

There were approximately thirty to thirty-five in attendance, including Mr.
Adam Edeler, representing Kentucky Governor Paul Edward Patton, a
native of Lawrence County and graduate of Louisa High School.

After the cemetery program, the Daughters of the American Revolution
hosted a lovely reception at the Lawrence County library.

Lloyd Moore, Bert Hayes, and others unknown to me, spent many, many
long and hard hours laboring on the clearing and restoring of this historic
cemetery and the planning of this Patriotic event for which we should all be
grateful. --Lawrence County, Kentucky Researchers Web Site

Lloyd maintains William was a Captain based on one entry in an 1840s tax
listing from Lawrence County, where a Capt. William Moore is mentioned.
Maybe he's ours, maybe he isn't. It is only one reference. I was against the placing of Captain on the stone although I appreciate his fervor. -- Jesse K Moore -- June 17, 1998
