GEORGE M. MOORE, a native of Boone County, Ky., was born August 12,
1844.  His father, Edward J. Moore, a native of Culpeper County, Va., 
was born in 1798, and was a farmer and stone mason.  At the age of 
twelve he came to Kentucky with his parents, who settled in Harrison 
County, where he grew to manhood, and married Nancy N. McAndless, of 
Pendleton County, Ky., daughter of John McAndless, who bore him ten 
children, the subject of this sketch being the ninth child.  Edward J. 
Moore died in 1859, and his widow died May 27, 1883; both were members 
of the Christian CHurch.  James Moore the paternal grandfather of 
George M., a native of Culpeper County, Va., settled on a farm near 
Cynthiana, Harrison County, about 1810, on what is known as Crooked 
Creek; he afterward removed to Pendleton County, where he died.  George 
M. Moore received a good English education in the common schools of 
Gallatin County, and has always followed farming; he owns 175 acres of 
well cultivated land, which he successfully manages.  He settled in 
Gallatin County in 1846 with his parents, who located near where our
subject now resides.  October 22, 1879, he married Liza West, of Boone
County, daughter of James and Mahala (Dance) West. One daughter, Amanda
C., had blessed their union.  Politically Mr. Moore is a Democrat, and 
with his wife has been a consistent member of the Christian Church for 
many years.
