Some Descendants of Hon. Samuel Moore b. 1630

1. Hon. Samuel Moore ¹ ^,2 was born about 1630 ^{³^,4} and died on 27 May 1688 ^{³^,5} about age 58.

General Notes:"Samuel Moore (called Moores in Savages Genealogical Dictionary) removed from Newbury, MA to Middlesex Co., NJ about 1666, certainly soon after the session of the Province of New Jersey by the Duke of York to John Lord Berkly and Sir George Carteret in the year 1664. Locating at Woodbridge, he filed surveys for a number of tracts of land in Woodbridge and Piscataway townships; and on the 27 Dec. 1667, a patent was issued to him for 70 acres of land at a yearly rental of half-penny sterling per acre. This 70 acre lot is situated in the lower end of what is now called Lower Rahway; and part of the old tract remained in the family until the latter part of the 19th century. His house lot at Woodbridge contained sixteen acres of land.

"Samuel Moore and Robert Dennis [possible connections to the Dennis family appear later also] were chosen delegates to represent the town of Woodbridge in the 2nd General Assembly of the Province of East Jersey which convened at Elizabethtown, 3rd Nov. 1668, Philip Carteret being Governor. At that session, the legislature passed an act imposing a tax of 12 pounds Sterling on the 6 towns then composing the province, namely Elizabeth, Newark, Woodbridge, Middletown, Shrewsbury and Bergen, 40 shillings on each town for defraying the the public charges. 'By a law passed in May of the same year, the taxes were to be paid in winter wheat at five shillings per bushel; summer wheat at four shillings & six pence; Indian corn at three shillings; rye and barley at four shillings; beef at two pence & half penny per pound; & pork at three pence and half penny to be paid into the hands and custody of Jacob Mollins of Elizabethtown'."

"Samuel Moore was appointed Treasurer of the the Province of East Jersey, 4 Dec. 1675 and reappointed in 1678. His compensation being nine pence per pound; in 1682 he was ordained by an act of the Legislature one of the Commissioners for laying out highways, bridges, landings and ferries in the county of Middlesex.

"At the first division of the public land of Woodbridge among the freeholders, about 1670, he received a double portion, about 356 acres, his brother Matthew [known as Moores] receiving but 177 acres. His fellow townsmen elected him to various positions of trust, as folllows: Assistant Justice of the Township Court, 1669-71, 1671 and 1681; President of the court 1672-74; Marshall 1676; Clerk of the Court 1676-87; Overseer of the Highway 1669-70; Ratemaker (Assessor) most of the time from 1672-87; Rategatherer 1675-79 and 1683; Overseer of the poor 1682; Deputy in the General Assembly 1669, 1670, 1683 and 1688; Lieutenant of the military 1675. During the year 1683, he held the office of high sherriff of Middlesex County, Deputy to the Assembly, Messenger of the House of Deputies, town clerk of Woodbridge and Tax Collector of the township. And in June of that year, according to the Woodbridge town meeting records, he was 'by unanimous Vote Made Choice of to keep ordinary (an inn) for this towne, and whilst Rum is to Be had from the Merchant at three Shillings or two Shillings and six pence for Gallon, he is to afford it for Money at three pence for gill, Six pence the half pint, and eighteen pence the Quart; if he gives more then to raise the price.' Dally states that this first tavern set up in Woodbridge, probably occupied the site upon which Dr. Samuel E. Freeman's drug store now stands (1873), this being the spot assigned for his residence in the record and by tradition. The same historian justly remarks that, he appears to have been a capable, faithful and honest servant of the township and the Province and, as such, will ever be held in honor."

• Court of Law: 1653, Newbury, Essex, MA.⁶ Samuel's first appearance in the annals of Newbury is in September, 1653 when his testimony cleared Dionis, the wife of Tristram Coffin, of the charge of selling beer not equal to the legal requirements.

It is recorded there that Elizabeth's burial place is beside the Freeman family plot in Section B, the eleventh stone in the row. That stone is a small, gray stone, the first one to the south of the Freeman family stone. As of 2005 (and as of 1991, at the time of the first visit) the writing is not legible whatsoever. The photos are included here.

The Freeman family stone reads as follows:
Rachel Moore Freeman 1805 -1889
Hettie Freeman 1828 -1899
Mary E. Freeman 1841- 1919
To the north of the main stone are two small markers. One says "Mother" and the other says "Sister." It is presumed that "Mother" refers to Rachel Moore Freeman (daughter of Elizabeth Smith Moore) and that "Sister" refers to Hettie Freeman.

Death Notes:Lindley Murray lived with his son, Dr. E.M. Moore, in Rochester until he died.

General Notes:The following is excerpted from the published genealogy of The Brooke-White Family (to Chase Jackson Brooke and his wife Lucy Moore Shaw) available on the Internet.

Lindley's father, a Quaker, had fled the United States during the Revolution so Lindley was born in Nova Scotia. He was named for Lindley Murray, a celebrated grammarian and wealthy merchant of New York who "befriended Samuel Moore in the difficulties growing out of the war." (*) The family returned to New Jersey in 1810. Lindley was already a teacher at Nine Partners when Adam and Anne Mott moved there in 1811. He and Abigail became engaged when she was 17 and an assistant teacher at the school. The pay was not good so they moved to Rahwey, NJ where they opened a Quaker School. Their son Edward Mott Moore was born there in 1814. In 1815 they moved to New York City to take charge of the Monthly Meeting School of Friends on Pearl Street. Lindley and Abigail made their home with her parents, Adam and Anne Mott, on Lombardy Street. However in 1817 they rented a house on Chrystie Street. He had been earning $1,200 a year but in 1820 times were tough and his salary was reduced. Lindley decided to give up the school and move to Flushing and opened a boarding school for boys in 1820. "Seven years later he bought five acres of land in Westchester Village, on the road to New York, about opposite the Friends Meeting house, and removed his school to this place in the Spring of 1828. Here also he prospered, and his residence here is several times referred to in family letters. But he had laid up money and was beginning to think of retiring from the arduous labors of a school to the tranquility of a farm. A visit that he and his wife made at Rochester confirmed him in this desire, and after considerable inquiry and negotiation he purchased, in 1829, the farm of 170 acres then occupied by Erastus Spalding for $5,200. The farm was beautifully situated, on high ground, on what was alter know as Lake Avenue in the City of Rochester, being the direct road from the City to lake Ontario, at the mouth of the Genesee River." (*) In 1831 he built a "two story house in the Greek revival style." (Later the house became a convent for the Sisters of Nazareth Academy.)

Many young, educated, prosperous and forward thinking men were drawn to Rochester in the 1830's. It became a focal point for many agitating ideas. There were a significant number of Quakers living there pushing for social reforms. Lindley helped form the Anti-Slavery Society in 1838 and became its first president. He was also a teacher at the first "High School".

His son, Edward Mott, also became well known in the society and was one of the best surgeons in the state. By 1870, Lindley was living with Edward and his family.

He was a portly man of commanding height and mien, of benevolent countenance and expressive features. His students will not soon forget his kindly ways, nor the sonorous tones with which he repeats the verses of Milton and other English poets." from the History of Haverford College by a student of Lindley M. Moore, Richard Wood.

(*) from "Adam and Anne Mott" by Thomas C. Cornell

• Occupation: 5 Nov 1848, Haverford College.⁴⁰ School Principal
Lindley Murray's career was wide and varied as a teacher. He was most known for being the principal of Haverford College, a Quaker school (location uncertain at present). "A History of Haverford College," published in 1892 tells the story of his work there.

• Residence: Bef 1871, Rochester, NY.⁴⁰ Lindley Murray lived with his son, Dr. E.M. Moore, in Rochester until he died.

Lindley married Abigail L. Mott,³⁷ daughter of Adam Mott and Anne Unknown, on 19 Aug 1813 in Mamarineck.³ Abigail died on 6 Sep 1846.^{³^,37}

Sixth Generation

161. James Moore was born on 21 Aug 1803 in Wilmot Township, NS,^{³³^,34^,50} died on 23 Jun 1872 in Charlotteville, ON ^{³³^,50} at age 68, and was buried in Woodhouse Methodist Cemetery, Woodhouse Twp., ON.^{⁵⁰^,51}

General Notes:James Smith named his grandson, James Moore, as the inheritor of his property in Lot 20, 3rd Concession of Charlotteville Twp. It was clear that the Smiths didn't approve of their son-in-law, Enoch Moore, and passed over him in the will.

James lived on his property, Lot 12, 2nd Concession, a 150 acre farm in Woodhouse Twp. at the south-west corner of Hwy # 24 and County Rd. 10, the Turkey Point Rd. The intersection where the farm stood became known as Moore's Corners. In 1983, Jay Moore (the writer), visited the property and took pictures of the house and the barn. The owner at the time took him into the barn and pointed out that the whole frame of the barn, likely built by James, was still in excellent condition and showed excellent craftsmanship. Jay was given two square nails from the roof that were assumed to be original. These may have come from the iron foundry at nearby Normandale. There is a plaque in Normandale at the site of the foundry.

The owner also described the very large, hand-hewn beams under the house that were charred from a fire. It is known that the house burned down in 1881 while in the possession of his son, James Albert.

He continued to correspond with his brothers and sisiters who had relocated to Illinois, Wisconsin and Nebraska until his death in 1872. Most of the correspondence involved appeals for money to support Elizabeth, his mother, who died in Rockford, IL on March 3, 1871. Jay Moore, the writer, saw the gravestone of Elizabeth Moore in the cemetary at New Milford, IL in 1992.

As of 2001, James Jay Daniel Moore is the fifth James Moore and has James Moore's wedding band. The tradition is that it should be passed to the first boy of each generation descending from the first James Moore. James Aaron Jason Moore is the sixth James Moore.

Seventh Generation

General Notes:"James Albert was convinced that there was an unclaimed fortune in England waiting to be claimed by the descendants of Elizabeth Hawksworth (nee Wedgewood)."

"In all fairness to James Albert, there were other descendants of Elizabeth Wedgewood, namely the Bowlbys and Hawksworths (see the Moore genealogy) in Nova Scotia who were similarly convinced. However, James Albert took it upon himself to represent the Moores in this matter. Starting in 1879 and continuing until 1914, there is a file of letters in the Moore Archives wherein he corresponded with his uncles, aunts and cousins, soliciting funds and genalogical information in one effort after another which never appeared to be successful.
However, it did result in the accumulation of genealogical information that has made the writing ofthis journal considerably easier."

The writer assumes that this alleged fortune would be related to the famous company of Wedgewood China. See the Moore genealogy for the name Wedgewood.

• Residence: Between 1851 and 1905, Charlotteville, ON.¹⁸ Lot 12, Concesion 2
James Albert inherited the property from his mother upon her death. It was a farm in Woodhouse Twp. at the south-west corner of Hwy # 24 and County Rd. 10, the Turkey Point Rd. The intersection where the farm stood became known as Moore's Corners. In 1983, Jay Moore (the writer), visited the property and took pictures of the house and the barn. The owner at the time took him into the barn and pointed out that the whole frame of the barn, likely built by James, the father of James Albert and a carpenter by trade, was still in excellent condition and showed excellent craftsmanship. Jay was given two square nails from the roof that were assumed to be original. These may have come from the iron foundry at nearby Normandale. There is a plaque in Normandale at the site of the foundry.

The owner also described the very large, hand-hewn beams under the house that were charred from a fire. It is known that the house burned down while in the possession James Albert. James Henry Moore writes, "The large twelve room house, which his father built, burned down in 1881 and he attempted to rebuild in the same manner which was a decision hard to justify for just two people, especially since it diluted his accumulated capital."

James married Luella Jane Mattice, daughter of Joseph Mattice and Catharine Kniffen, on 14 Jan 1890 in Charlotteville, ON ³³.^,34 Luella was born on 5 Oct 1861 in Charlotteville, ON,^{³³^,34^,59} died on 5 Nov 1936 in Hamilton, ON ^{³³^,58} at age 75, and was buried in Woodhouse Twp., ON.^{⁵¹^,60}

"Ontario's Oldest Baptist Preacher Died on Saturday.

"Elder Moore Widely Know Throughout Province - Funeral Attended by Over Thirty Preachers and a Large Number of Friends - He Will be Mourned by All.

"The village of Waterford lost one of its oldest and best beloved citizens on Saturday last in the death of Rev. Dr. James B. Moore, who passed away following a stroke suffered August 12. He was in his 90th year, and until the last few weeks had enjoyed remarkably good health for a man of his years.

"He was the oldest living Baptist minister in the Ontario and Quebec Union, and had been preaching the gospel for nearly three quarters of a century. On a few occasions even during the past year he had occupied the pulpit. Having served in many pastorates throughout the province he was widely known and his stately, venerable figure was familiar to thousands of friends by all of whom he was deeply respected and admired.

"Elder Moore, as he was more familiarly known, was born on the first day of April, 1842, on a farm in the township of Norwich, county of Oxford, not far from Burgessville. His father was William S. Moore, a man of Quaker parentage, who came to Canada from New Jersey and settled near Norwich. Their family consisted of ten boys and six girls, of which Elder Moore was the last remaining member.

"When he was seventeen years old, he determined to enter the Gospel ministry, although he was opposed by his father who had been a Quaker in all of his training and his sympathies. The young man had the choice of leaving home or leaving the religious meetings. He chose the former and was baptized and united with the Baptist Church at Burgessville.

"He began his struggle for an education at a private academy and boarding school in a village about 20 miles from New York City. He received board and tuition free in return for doing odd jobs. He had been there only a year or so when the Civil War broke out. He heard the call to arms and enlisted, be selected as an aide-de-camp to General Phil Kearney. He as only 19 years old at that time. His unit was with the Army of the Potomac and camped near the White House. Several times he had the pleasure of seeing the President, Abraham Lincoln. The only engagement in which his division took part was the retreat after the siege of Richmond in which the fighting was fierce and many men were slain. Elder Moore always declared, however, that he did not fire a gun, but was engaged in running messages from one division to another on horseback. He did have a horse shot beneath him during one assault.

"He was in the army for nearly a year when his father learned about it and was instrumental in securing his discharge on the ground that he enlisted under age and without the consent of his parents.

"The ambitious young man returned to the old farm home in Norwich township. The he learned that Woodstock Baptist College had opened and he straightway enrolled there. Although often in financial straits, he managed to complete a six year course at the College and graduated in 1868, at 26 years of age.

"He was ordained to the ministry and became pastor of a small Church in Whitevale, Pickering Township, Ontario County, at a salary of four hundred dollars a year. He was married while at Whitevale and for over fifty years they lived happily and laboured together. He was instrumental in forming three new Churches in the district.

"Rev. Mr. Moore devoted a year to evangelistic work after which he assumed a pastorate in Tillsonburg and from 1880 onward laboured there and in the nearby village of Brownsville. After a year or two in the village of Scotland he came to Waterford. After five years as pastor of the Waterford Baptist Church, during which he made a wide circle of friends, the again began evangelistic work and for eight years was peregrinating among the churches, while his family lived in Toronto. Then he returned to the pastorate and assumed charges in Blenheim, Brownsville and Delhi successively. At the conclusion of his Delhi pastorate, he definitely retired because he was then nearly 70 years of age. Having many congenial friends in Waterford, he and Mrs. Moore decided to come here to spend the remaining years of their lives.

"Here Mrs. Moore predeceased her husband some fourteen years ago. In 1921 he married Mrs. David Grey of Hamilton, who survives him. A daughter, Bessie, Mrs. (Rev) W. J. H. Brown, of Toronto, died more than a year ago, while three sons remain, Mr. W. H. Moore, M.P. for Ontario County; Mr. Harry Moore of Toronto, and Ambrose of Detroit.

"Elder Moore had preached on one or more occasions in every Baptist Church in this district and there were few in Western Ontario which he had not preached. As late as the summer of 1928 his services were still in keen demand and he preached 28 sermons that year. In the last few years he had continued to do supply work when called upon.

"Waterford was indeed fortunate when he decided to spend his twilight years in this village for there was no more loyal citizen and none more sympathetic with every community movement than the genial Elder. His name became a household word in the village and far beyond its confines. During his 20 years in Waterford, though he claimed to be in retirement, no request for his presence at religious or social gathering ever met with refusal. He was the embodiment of good nature and his whimsical stories and droll humor have enlivened many a party.

"In his early years he was very fond of thoroughbred horses and his stables were frequent blue-ribbon winners at the C. N. E. Gardening and fishing were other hobbies, while his fish stories became almost legendary. His parrot "Polly" provided much amusement for both himself and his visitors. At the last accounting, this bird was over 25 years old.

"For the last twelve years or more, Elder Moore had made his winter home at St. Petersburg, Florida, where he became almost a landmark. He was permanent chaplain of the Canadian Association, comprising about 300 members, the Grand Army of the Republic which included forty Civil War veterans, and the Three Quarter Century Club, comprising over 300 members, all of whom were over 75 years of age. The Elder's infinite capacity for telling stories made him a prime favourite with the Canadian colony in Florida.

"Few men live to the ripe old age of fourscore and ten: to still fewer is given the opportunity of serving in their chosen vocation for nearly 75 years; and only very rarely is such a man possessed of the clarity of mind, the command of language, and the charm of personality at the end of this time as exhibited in the case of the late Elder Moore. A happy disposition and an even, imperturbable temperament assisted in making his a pleasant journey though his life.

"Waterford will miss his genial countenance and patriarchal figure, his sparkling with and his treasured storehouse of recollections, as well as his impressive pulpit deliverances. But he has left his mark on the community and his long and faithful service will not soon be forgotten.

"The funeral was held from his late residence on St. James Street on Monday afternoon where so many friends gathered from far and near that it was found necessary to hold the service out of doors, the day being warm and sunny, and ideal for such an arrangement. Rev. Dr. Langton of Brantford, President of the Baptist Convention of Ontario and Quebec, was in charge of the services. Rev. C. E. MacLeod, secretary of the Convention, made the opening prayer, and the Scriptures were read by Rev. C. R. Duncan, Educational Secretary representing McMaster University, which a few years ago conferred on Elder Moore the degree of Doctor of Divinity, in accordance with Dr. Moore's request, the address was given by Rev. F. C. Elliot of Ingersoll, who since childhood had known the deceased. Most appropriately he chose for his text, "And Abraham died in a good old age, and old man and full of years and was gathered to his people." Mr. T. C. Savage, also by request, sang two solos, and Rev. L. F. Kipp, editor of the Canadian Baptist, closed the service with a prayer and benediction. Over thirty ministers were present and formed a guard of honor as the casket was borne by six pastors form this vicinity: Revs. W. H. Howard of Delhi, E. Butcher of Hagersville, J. A. Suggitt of Walsh, E. J. Whan of Villa Nova, T. M. Mead of Waterford, G. M. Saunders of Langton

"Of the immediate family present beside Mrs. Moore were Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Moore, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Moore, Rev. W. J. H. Brown, Rev. Gordon Brown, and Mr. Douglas Brown, all of Toronto.

Interment took place in Greenwood Cemetery."

From "The Canadian Baptist"
3 Sep 1931

"When Rev. Moore died, he was the oldest minister in the Baptist denomination of Canada and probably the only survivor of Canadian nationality who participated in the American Civil War. As a youth of 17, he left home to obtain an education, preparatory to entering the ministry. Fate directed his steps to the United States and, when the civil war broke out, he enlisted, being selected as an aide de camp to General Kearney with the army of the Potomac in Virginia. His father obtained his discharge and he returned home to enter Woodstock College. Elder Moore, as he was more familiarly know in later life, occupied the pulpit in practically every Baptist church in the province on one or more occasions."

FINE OLD VETERAN SUMMONED TO REST
Rev. Dr. James B. Moore, retired minister of the Baptist Church, who died at Waterford a week ago. Dr. Moore was the oldest minister in the Ontario and Quebec Baptist Union and before entering the ministry, while still a lad in his teens, he enlisted with the Northern army in the American Civil war. His freedom being obtained by his father after one year's service because he was under age, he returned to his native district of Norfolk and by dirt of much labour and thrift obtained enough money to go through college. He held charges at Tillsonburg, Brownsville, Blenheim, Delhi and other places. Such was the esteem in which he was held by the ministry that at his funeral over thirty ministers of all denominations were present.

HYMENEAL
BROWN - MOORE
A very pretty house wedding took place at the Baptist parsonage, Delhi, August 27th. The contracting parties were Rev. Wm. H. J. Brown, youngest son of Mr. Benajor Brown, of Brownsville, and Miss Bessie Moore, B. A., only daughter of Rev. J. B. Moore. The marriage was celebrated at high noon, and was performed by the father of the bride in the presence of only the immediate relatives of both families. While the wedding march was being played by Mrs. W. H. Moore the groom entered the living room, supported by Mr. Harry Moore and followed by Mr. W. H. Moore, barrister, of Toronto, supporting his sister, the bride, who gave her away. Mrs. J. J. Mott, of Toronto, aunt of the bride, acted as matron of honor. It was a solemn and pretty scene as the bridal pair stood beneath a beautiful arch formed with evergreens and a background of asparagus ferns, all tastefully decorated with flowers, and a large floral ball hanging just above them. The bride was handsomely gowned with a fawn crepe de chene over pink taffetta with pink trimmings. She carried in her hand a shower bouquet of pink and white roses. After the ceremony there was an adjournment to the dining-room for luncheon. The room was nicely decorated and the table well spread with rich viands, fruits and flowers.

The bride was made the recipient of costly and well-selected presents. Her going-away gown was a handsomely made tailor suit of brown ladies' cloth, with white silk waist and white felt hat with brown wings and velvet trimmings. At three o'clock the bridal pair amid showers of rice boarded the Wabash train for Buffalo and eastern points. On their return they will live in Brownsville, where the bridegroom is the popular pastor of the church in the home of his childhood. All join in best wishes for the future happiness and usefulness of the bridal couple.

Ninth Generation

General Notes:James Henry (Jim) Moore was diagnosed with Malignant Hyperthermia in the late 1980s. This is a rare, genetic condition that could be fatal under certain conditions. It was discovered when he almost died during an operation to remove polyps from his throat. It amounts to a severe reaction to certain drugs, particularly anaesthetics, or excessive overheating that causes the body to overheat so rapidly that one can die within fifteen minutes once the process has started. All other blood relatives have been cautioned that the chance they have this condition is high and have been encouraged to be tested. All relatives have been instructed to wear medic alert bracelets whether they have been tested or not. A few have undergone testing to date (1999) and most tested positive for the condition.

245. Joseph Lorne Moore U.E. ⁵⁸ was born on 9 Jan 1924 in Hamilton, ON,^{³³^,58^,67} died on 11 Jul 1996 in Stoney Creek, ON ^{⁵⁸^,68} at age 72, and was buried on 13 Jul 1996 in Stoney Creek, ON.^{⁵⁸^,68} The cause of his death was pancreatic cancer and probable stroke.

General Notes:Joseph Moore died at home likely from a massive stroke that took him immediately although his family was never given any confirmation of this. He had been ill for most of the previous year but was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer six weeks before his death. The reason for this late diagnosis had a lot to do with his reluctance to deal with doctors over the chronic illness he was suffering. The family was assured that, given the type of cancer, the lack of action made little difference to the prognosis and length of his life. He had had at least one small stroke in the past and his death by this probable cause saved him from the agonies of that are inevitable in the final stages of pancreatic cancer.

He retired from Stelco, Hamilton, Ontario after 34 years as a locomotive mechanic. He was very happy to leave. During World War II he was trained as an airplane engine mechanic where he honed the skills he used all those years later at the steel plant. One of the locations used for training during the war was at the psychiatric hospital in St. Thomas, Ontario. He would joke with his family saying, "You didn't know I spent time in the loony bin, did you?" He rode his 1927 Harley Davidson J30 back and forth to Hamilton on weekends, even in the winter. Throughout the war he served in British Columbia, England, Burma, Egypt and the majority of his time in India. He was happy to leave there, too. Joe would refer to the war as his university education, but it wasn't a valuable learning experience in his judgement. When he returned, he was qualified to take the job at Stelco as a deisel mechanic but before getting that job, he returned for a short time to the Coke Ovens in Hamilton where he had worked before the war.

Joe's brother Jim wrote the following account in 2001. " I started working at the Hamilton Byproduct Coke Ovens, a subsidiary of United Gas Company which distributed the gas produced in the Hamilton area - United Gas was a division of Union Gas Co. of Canada, located in London, ON. Initially, (Mar.19, 1939) I worked in the plant office as a clerk and handled the typing, letters and reports, etc. for the General Superintendant.

"At that time, Joe was attending the High School of Commerce on Sanford Ave. He wasn't too interested in office work and his grades showed it.

"The War started in Sept. 1939 and early the next year (1940) the supply of skilled labour was becoming critical. The General Superintendant at the Coke Ovens decided to institute a system of apprentices in the Mechanical Department (numbering about 30 mechanics) to offset the shortage and, initially he decided to start five apprentices. Joe was 16 and not doing too well in school so I spoke to the General Superintendant on his behalf. He was hired along with Percy Hutchinson, Jack Pearson (who later became brothers-in-law), Bob Naylor and Bruce Bowen (who later became life-long friends). Joe was apprenticed to the Diesel Mechanic and liked the work, although he complained about working out in the weather - his skin was tender and roughened up from exposure to the elements.

" I joined the Air Force in Dec. 1941 and lost track of him for a few years. I returned to my job at the Coke Ovens in Jan. 1947 and Joe also returned to work in the Mechanical Department of the Coke Ovens but I can't recall the exact time. About this time, Joe was living at home with our parents but they soon relocated in New Toronto (now part of the South West section of the City of Toronto) where my father started a new job. When they moved, Joe stayed with us for a while in our first house on Frederick St. near Barton St. (in Hamilton). Shortly after, he moved in with Uncle Lin and Aunt Eva on Cannon St.

"He didn't really like working at the Coke Ovens with all the dirt and exposure to rain, snow, etc. while maintaining buldozers and cranes. Uncle Lin had worked at Proctor & Gamble as a machinist for over thirty years and, when the opportunity arose, he spoke for Joe and got him in the maintenance department but not as a diesel mechanic. (Jay Moore remembers that his father suffered greatly with hayfever and that he described how uncomfortable he was while working amidst the powdered detergents and perfumed soaps at P. & G.)

"Around the time he married Gladys, Joe wanted to move back into diesel maintenance so your grandfather Pearson (John Joseph Kee Pearson, father of Gladys Pearson) spoke for him in the Steel Co. and so he was able to leave a good job at P & G and return to diesel maintenance work where he remained for the rest of his [working] life."

While he was at the Coke Ovens just after the War, he met Jack Pearson. Jack took a liking to Joe and invited him home one day for supper with his family. It was there that he met Jack's younger sister, Gladys, and the rest is history, as they say.

The sons of Joe and Gladys grew up with the story of their romantic beginnings. Joe wanted to marry Gladys very soon but her father wouldn't allow her to marry until she was twenty. They were married on her twentieth bithday in a Friday evening candlight service. As a boy, Jay remembered seeing the large candleholders that were still stored in the church many years later. Gladys recognized them and told him what they were. Their marriage, by any measure, was a great success.

Their first home was in a house at the back of the property purchased by Gladys' brother, Jack, on the Burlington Beach Strip. Before the Skyway Bridge was built, the Burlington Bay shoreline was at the end of their property. Their second home was the cottage built by Joe's father, Lorne, the last property on the East side of Herbert Court at Fruitland Beach. Joe bought it, winterized it and it became home for about three years. When their son Jay was about to attend Kindergarten, this meant crossing a very dangerous highway and when the third child from that neighbourhood was killed in as many years on that highway, Joe and Gladys moved closer to the school to 502 Barton Street. They lived there for about twenty years while the boys grew up. Although the house is gone to make way for many townhouses, a couple of the trees that Joe planted are full grown maples that the builders left standing. Their final home was at 20 Second St. N. in Stoney Creek.

His faith in God and living the Christian life was a very important part of Joe's life. After meeting Gladys, she said that she couldn't be "unequally yoked," that is, married to someone who wasn't a "born again" Christian. Shortly thereafter he "got saved" and began to live his life differently. His commitment to his new faith was very evident to others who noticed a distinct change and the home that he and Gladys made for themselves and their sons was centred around the Christian practices of prayer, Bible reading, much church attending and associating with other Christians for fellowship. He became a deacon in the church, treasurer of the Sunday School for many years and used his car to pick up anyone who ever needed a ride to Sunday School or church if he could. Jay, his first son, remembers watching his father in the kitchen getting his breakfast, alone in the very early morning while it was still dark outside. He kept the lights very low so the boys wouldn't be wakened by the light through the open bedroom doors and he would place his Bible under a small light so he could read some scripture before he went off to work. He was a true convert.

The name Joseph was that of his great-grandfather Joseph Mattice, his great uncle Joseph Mattice and his uncle Joseph Lindley Moore. James Henry Moore suggests that he was likely named after his uncle Joseph Lindley (known as "Lin") because Lin and Lorne (James Lorne) were very close as brothers.

He remembered well his great uncle Joseph Mattice who lived near the family's historical home situated at what was once know as Moore's Corners, Highway 24 and County Road 10, Norfolk County. He spoke fondly of both his uncle and his Aunt Priscilla and the weeks he spent there during summers as a boy. He spoke easily of the the good memories from his childhood but was reticent about some of the more painful experiences. He didn't believe that he had a happy childhood and, on a few occasions, spoke bitterly of his father's harsh, hard-hearted discipline and his older brother's continual harassment. His mother was a warm and gentle woman but she offered little protection to Joe. These conditions, for a shy and introverted boy, created a lack of self-confidence and a lack of trust in the world that stayed with him his whole life. Later in life, what peace he achieved was because his church provided the aceptance he needed, his wife provided the love and affection he longed for and his faith provided the trust he found.

The following is the text of the eulogy written and delivered by Jay Moore at Joseph's funeral, 13 July 1996.

"I am here with you today to celebrate the life and mourn the passing of my father, Joseph Lorne Moore. On behalf of our mother, Gladys Moore and our whole family, I thank all of you for being here to give us your support, to mourn with us and to remember him, each in his or her own way with warmth and affection.

"What is the measure of a man? This man, who we honour today, was a simple man. He didn't measure others by their achievements, by their rank, by their past glories or by the size of their bank accounts, so we will not measure him by these things today. Dad measured others by their compassion, by their commitment, by their fairness and by their truthfulness. He wasn't concerned much with the words in these matters but with actions for actions spoke louder than words to Dad. I am mindful today that this is a legacy he leaves his sons, Bob, Peter and I, and his grandchildren, Aaron, Erica and Noel.

"As most of you know about Dad, he was a man of few words. In fact, he'd be glad he wasn't here today because he'd be very uncomfortable with all this attention - too many words about him! Those of us who knew him well saw that he expressed himself in many ways other than words. His eyes spoke much louder than words. His hands spoke much louder than words. His arms that held my mother and carried me as a baby spoke much louder than words. His actions were the actions of a generous, responsible man, a man of commitment and a man of feeling who was able to understand the feelings of others. His actions spoke much louder than words. My brothers and I are men who know that our actions speak louder than our words and we learned this by our father's example. This is part of his legacy.

"As an adolescent, I didn't understand my father's humility. I wanted my dad to be larger than life, a proud hero. As I have grown, I have come to understand the value of such humility and the importance of humility in our lives. By his actions, I have learned this from my father. This is part of his legacy.

"Responsibility can be defined as the "ability to respond" to circumstances in which we find ourselves. My father was always ready, willing and able to respond to the needs of others. As most of you from the church will know, he was always willing to do more than his share. He responded. His actions spoke louder than his words. This is part of his legacy.

"My father had true respect for women. He listened to them and gave them the credence they deserved. We watched him treat our mother like an equal, loving her unconditionally, open about his need for her and not discounting her in any way but sharing the power in our home. It takes a big man to do that. Of course my mother wouldn't have it any other way but I know he never thought that it should have been any other way. By his actions, he passed this on to his sons. This is part of his legacy.

"A few weeks ago, while I was visiting him in the hospital, I told him a story of how I had come to the aid of a young couple who were travelling. They had lost all their money and were in desperate straits. When I finished the story of what I, his son, had done, I looked over at him and he was weeping. He took my hand and he squeezed it. My father was a man of deep feelings and he empathized with that young man and woman, feeling their pain. I knew, too, that he was pleased with me at that moment but I only did what came naturally - it was what Joe Moore would have done. I learned by his example, by his actions. Because he was a man of deep feeling, all of his sons are men who value their feelings and act upon their feelings. In this way he has made an important contribution to the world for this world needs men of compassion and empathy.

"My father carried Bob, Peter and I and his grandchildren, Aaron, Erica and Noel in his arms many times. The time had come for the six of us to carry his body to its final resting place.

"Daddy, the pain of your passing leaves a big hole in my heart but I have already begun to fill that hole with fond memories of you. You are a part of me and I will always cherish and honour you. Thank you for being my father. Goodbye, Daddy."

Death Notes:Eulogy of

Gladys Margaret Pearson

7 April 1928 - 20 July 1999

I am Jay, Gladys Moore's first born child and I'd like to welcome you here with us.

I am grateful for so many things - for the wonderful expressions of sympathy and the sharing of so many memories from all the people who have come here yesterday and today; for all the members of our family and for my aunts and uncles who have all rallied round and been such a great support through this time of shock and separation; for all of you here today participating in this celebration of a life well-lived and helping us say good-bye to my mother. For all these things, I am grateful.

Three years ago, I stood here in this same room and delivered the eulogy for my father. Most of you were here then, too. Little did any of us know that we'd be gathered together again for Gladys so soon. As I began to think of what I might say, I remembered the theme in my father's eulogy was "His Legacy." As I continued to think about Mom, a theme emerged and it was this: "Her Teachings." She taught us so much. She certainly taught through her words but I want to share with you today what she taught us through the example of her life.

She taught us that life is fragile and she showed this knowledge through how she lived and how she died. She knew life could end at any time and she was prepared. She appreciated living and she accepted death.

When I started to pull my thoughts together, the first word that came to mind was "fearless." I'm not saying she was never afraid but she approached so many things in life fearlessly. She didn't second guess herself and had very few doubts. By her actions, she taught us to have the courage of our convictions. She taught us that there is great strength in deep faith.

As with all great strengths, however, there is a often a weakness hidden inside that strength. Sometimes that single-mindedness we experienced made it difficult for her to make room for another point of view and to have understanding about why someone might wish to do things differently. As she aged, she mellowed and accepting others became easier, although she was still biting her tongue sometimes. Some may say that she should have bitten her tongue more often than she did.

Gladys Moore was not a hypocrite, even to a critical eye. She was a woman of principle - she said what she meant and meant what she said. This quality is more rare among us than it should be. We all know of people or perhaps know of ourselves that we may say one thing and do another, even in very innocent ways. This didn't happen very often with Mom. She taught us to have congruence, that is, to have our thoughts, feelings, beliefs and actions all match and to be true to ourselves.

Another message she delivered by her actions was very similar to this: go with your strengths. She was not a sentimental or affectionate person and she didn't pretend to be. Her strengths were in reaching out to others, in making connections, in participating. I'd like to read an excerpt from something I wrote for Mother's Day last year.

"My mom was the best mom in the neighbourhood when I was a boy. She could throw a baseball better than any other mom I knew. She was often the one to suggest we go out and play catch or hit a few grounders for practice. Dad didn't like sports much. When he wasn't cutting the back field or fixing the car, he liked to sleep with the newspaper. When the Young People's group from our church came out to our place for a baseball game and cornroast, Mom would be the pitcher for her team. She was a good pitcher. She even owned her own baseball glove. I was so proud of her."

Another strength was in her thinking ability and she challenged us to think. The dinner table in our house when I was a boy and whenever we got together in later years was a place of debate, of probing, thoughtful questions that she would pose, a place of learning. She taught us to use our heads and to speak our minds. Even as late as two weeks ago, she and I had a conversation that was really a respectful debate about some issues that were unresolved between us for many years. True to herself, she was open, spoke her mind and listened and we came to an understanding with each other. I will always be grateful to her for giving me the opportunity to do this before she was so suddenly taken.

But the flipside to this strength in her ability to think was that sometimes emotions were a mystery and not only the emotions of others, which sometimes just didn't make sense to her, but I think her own emotions were perhaps the most mysterious. A recent example of this is how she experienced the time after the death of my father. Many of us know that, when one loses a spouse, the pain may never go away. I'm sure that Gladys thought that, after a respectable period, she would pick herself up, dust herself off and get on with life. On the outside, that's what she did but on the inside there was always a large hole in her heart, a deep sadness, a place that was empty without Joe and those who knew her well could see it. Many of us understand and accept these normal emotions but she seemed surprised sometimes by her own feelings of grief. What she taught us by her actions was the importance of love between two people. Their marriage was a testament to that deep and abiding love. They were in love to the very end.

Mom was in charge. She took charge of whatever needed to be taken charge of and when she wasn't in charge, she wished she was. She was in charge right to the end. In fact, she's still in charge today. A few weeks ago, she wrote out her funeral service and we are all following her directions in this service, including me as I give this eulogy. The last time I saw her in the hospital after the heart attack, she was graceful, composed and "in charge," giving instructions to the nurses, happy and prepared for the next adventure.

Mom was a traveler. She was always going somewhere and never to the same place twice. For Mom, this was one more journey. Her bags were packed and she was ready to go. In my mind's eye I can see her smiling and waving, off on her next adventure saying, "‘til we meet again." But before we say our final good-bye, she left these instructions for us all. She still has something to teach us.

Miss Me But Let Me Go

When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me
I want no rites in a gloom filled room
Why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little - but not too long
And not with your head bowed low
Remember the love that we once shared
Miss me - but let me go.
For this is a journey we all must take
And each must go alone
It's all part of the Master's Plan
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick at heart
Go to the friends we know
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds.
Miss me - but let me go.
