The Search for James Moore (Family History Part 3)

Burton Herman Moore was my Great Great Grandfather. He was born July 12, 1851 in Virginia and died March 11, 1921 in Grove, OK. Burton and his wife Mary are buried in Zion Hill Cemetary in Green Forest, AR. Burton moved from Sullivan County, Tennessee to Benton County, Arkansas between 1882-1886. He married Mary Jane Ford on February 26, 1874 in Blountville, TN. (Sullivan County). Sometime between 1900 and 1908, Burton and Mary purchaced an 80 acre farm near Green Forrest AR, where he resided until his death. Burton Moore died at the home of his son John in Grove, OK. of Turberculosis. I will list the names of the children that Burton and Mary had:

1. Nancy W. Moore; Born About 1875 in Sullivan County, TN.
2. John Wesley Moore; Born 09/14/1876 in Sullivan County, TN.
