JAMES S. MOORE, farmer, P. O. North Middletown; son of Elisha and
Elizabeth (Money) Moore, and was born Sept. 20th, 1820 in Montgomery Co.
His grandfather was a native of Scotland and emigrated to Virginia prior
to the struggle for independence.  He was killed in the revolutionary
army under General Washington.  His (subject) grandmother was of English
birth.  His father, Elisha Moore, was born in Virginia and came to
Kentucky about 1809.  He married Elizabeth Money, of Fairfax County, Va.,
by whom he had seven sons, and three daughters.  The fourth son, James
S., who is the subject of our sketch, was married Feb. 10, 1842, to
Martha A. Bibb of Montgomery.  By this marriage there are six living
children.  Three sons, viz: George A., who is a graduate of the Kentucky
University at Lexington, and was honored with the valedictory address
on that occasion.  He is now a popular teacher Clintonville.  James M.,
the second son, was obliged to leave the above University, before
graduating, on account of failing health.  He subsequently regained his
health and married Maggie Frazier, and is now one of the enterprising
farmers of Clark County.  The third son, W. L., married Annie King, of
Clark, where he has also engaged in agricultural pursuits.  There were
also three daughters, viz: Matilda F., wife of J. G. Salmons; Mary E.,
wife of Thomas Hall, and Martha A., wife of Wm. Rion, of Paris. Martha A.
Moore died August 24, 1854.  Mr. Moore was next married to Martha A.
Crouch of Bath County, the 28th of Aug., 1855.  This union is blessed
with five living children, two daughters, viz: Minnie J., who is a
graduate of the K.C. & B. College at North Middletown, and now controls
one of the best disciplined schools in Montgomery County, and Rosa E.,
who is a student at her sister's school.  The eldest son, Sherman B., is
now in the Bible Department of Kentucky University where he will probably
graduate this year; after which he expects to make a preacher of the
Gospel.  Allie R. and CLarence E., the two youngest sons, are now
students of the K.C. & B. College.  Mr. Moore, through the whole course
of his life, has been a very active and industrious man, and always
place a very high estimate on education as the above record will testify.
He began life in moderate circumstances, reared and education a large
family, has contributed liberally to all charitable institutions
that were presented to him, and now owns a nice little farm of 166 acres.
He and his entire family are members of the Christian Church and he is a
Democrat in politics.
