  • The Moore Family1 the First Moore We Are Sure About Was John Moore G9
    Chapter 1 The Moore Family1 The first Moore we are sure about was John Moore G9. (See Charts 3) His father almost certainly was William Moore G10, who received a patent for 300 acres on a branch of the Nansemond River in Virginia on the 6 of December 1652. The records of the Isle of Wight show that in 1667, William Smelley patented land on the western branch of the Nansemond River adjoining John Moore. In 1668. Thomas Cullen also is listed as patented 400 acres adjoining John Moore in the Upper Parish of Nansemond Co. The property being referred to must certainly be the same as that patented by William Moore in 1652. The fact that John Moore owned property on the Nansemond River makes the likelihood very high that William was John’s father. I believe it is also significant that a William Moore (More) was a member of the Virginia Company of London.2 He is one of the signers of the May 23,1609 Second Charter. Many of those members sailed to Virginia to become planters; some, however, were only investors. There is no evidence that William Moore of London ever came to America. Nothing is really known about either William Moore of London or the one who patented land in 1652 beyond what is described above. It is plausible that the William Moore who was a member of the Virginia Company of London was father to William Moore (G10) who patented land in 1652. Members bought shares hoping to earn profits but also possibly land.

The Chief Subject Secretary, Dr. Williams-Freeman,. has contributed the following notes :— The following letter appeared in The Times of August 19th, 1940 :— Finds in Trenches. Sir,—During the Great War the' Commander-in-Chief of the Salonika Army, Field-Marshal Lord Milne, formed a committee of expert Archaeologists serving with the Force to salve and preserve objects of artistic or archaeological interest which might be discovered in the defensive works or elsewhere. In an Army Order, Commanding Officers were instructed to report the discovery of tombs, sculptures, mosaics, bronzes, pottery, inscriptions, etc., to Army H.Q., General Staff Intelligence, whence the information would be conveyed to a member of the Army Archaeological Committee who would record and take - charge of the antiquities found and visit the site as soon as possible. An Army Order concludes :—" The intention of the General Staffs of the' French and British Armies, in co-operation with the Greek Government, is to collect.in a temporary museum all the objects of archaeological interest dis- covered by the Allies in Macedonia." I was appointed curator of that museum. The interest taken in it by all ranks of the Allied Armies was remarkable. The objects found and salved included many rare and beautiful things. The Greek • Government were so impressed with the care and keenness shewn by the • ' troops in this work of salvage that at the end of the war they gave the whole collection to the British Museum, thus filling many gaps in our National collection.
