George Washington Moore (1st) signed up for the Mexican-American War in 1846 when he was 20 years old in Lancaster, South Carolina.I have no record of him before then or of his ancestors.He signed on for the Civil War in Marion, SC, and was murdered while home on leave from the Civil War in 1865 in Little Rock, SC. Sara (widow) then applied for a pension from the Mexican American War and that is where my information comes from.He was tall, stoop-shouldered, gray-eyed, and was called "Wash" Moore or Washington Moore most of his life.He was sometimes referred to as "Washington L. Moore".He was a carpenter/farmer.Sara Ann was the daughter of Archie McClellan, a Methodist minister. Any information will be appreciated.If any of this matches your family I hope you will email me.I will share what I have with you also. | George Washington Moore and Sara Ann (McClellan) Moore of SC Updated September 5, 2000 |
