Mr. George F. Doyle, Registrar,
         George Rogers Clark Chaper, S.A.R.,
              Winchester, KY

Dear Sir:

        I hope you will not consider it an inposition if I make
an inquiry regarding a very early resident of Winchester, Ky.
My son-in-law, William Christian Moore, is descended from
James Moore (1788-1845) who married Mary Campbell Dean (1795-
1857), the daughter of Daniel Dean (1765-1843) and Jeannet 
Steele (1768-1841).  The latter came from Augusta County, Va.  
James Moore was married in 1811 and came from Winchester or 
its vicinity to Greene county, Ohio in 1812.  James Moore
had the following sons Samuel, James G., Daniel M., William 
Henry, and Thomas.  William Henry (1820-1890), the grand-
father of my son-in-law, married Harriet Wilkerson b. 1827.
James G. married Mary Sipe in 1834 and moved to Indiana.
Samuel married Rachel Ewing and went to Indiana.  I am, however,
interested in the ancestry of James Moore (1788-1845) who came
to Ohio from Ky.  There are several Moore families in
that part of Kentucky and although I have exameined many records
I have been unable to ascertain to which the said James Moore
belongs.  It is possible that in your chapter records you may 
have the information which I desire.  It may be that you can
refer me to some other resident of Winchester who will have 
this information.  In either case I shall be under deep obligation
to you for any effort you may make in my behalf.  I am extremely
anxious to secure this information in order that my 
son-in-law may become a member of S.A.R.

                                     With kind regards
			Sincerely yours,
