Aug. 1808 Botetourt Co. Ministers' Returns [VaStLib, microfilm

minister's return: Hugh Moore & Anna
Allen.
13
Aug. 1807: bond, Hugh Moore & Anne Allen, daughter of Hugh Allen
[Worrell's Early Marriages, Wills
etc].
I
found this copy of Hugh Moore’s marriage certificate at the
Botetourt County Court House.
How it came to be a typed version I do not know. It does show the original
signatures of both Hugh Moore and Hugh Allen. It appears that after Hugh
More [sic] signed the certificate the quill had to be sharpened
before Hugh Allen could sign.
"Hugh Moore, my great-grandfather, and Jimmie Moore
came with their families from Rockbridge County, Virginia. My
grandmother was only four years old. They settled at Georgetown* and
after awhile Hugh Moore and his family came to the Big Bone, Boone
County, Ky." --Written by Alpha Hance, copied by Jennie Lee
Hance.
*Georgetown the county
seat of Scott County lies north of Lexington along Highway 25 near
the North Elkhorn Creek and the Kentucky Horse
Park.
Hugh Moore, was an early
settler at Big Boone Spring, in the southern part of Boone County,
and did good service in the war of
1812.

History of the State, Battle, Perrin, & Kniffin, 7th ed., Boone
Co.
Hugh Moore has been cited as a well renowned soldier
in the War of 1812. I have not found any records that directly link
our Hugh Moore. I did find records for a Hugh Moore in Warren Co, KY
but on closer inspection this was not our Hugh Moore as in the 1818
he married a woman by the name of Polly
Johnson.
At
the Virginia State Library I found a list of men serving under Capt.
John Murray and there on this list is a Hugh Moore having served 103
days. The document is almost illegible but it looks like it contains
entries containing the date and amount
paid.

the years 1820 and 1830.
