• Notes

  "Samuel C. Moore, was a native of North Carolina, lived in one of the western counties of that state, was a Quaker, and as his association with that faith would indicate, was a pronounced abolitionist. About the opening of the Civil war he migrated to Indiana, and the property he left behind in North Carolina was confiscated by the Confederate Government. Later he came on to Kansas and he died in Chase County." [Find a Grave page for Samuel Moore, citation details below, accessed 9 Nov 2020] From the Christian Worker, Fifth Month 12, 1881 (citation details below): Fourth month 7, 1881, after a brief but severe illness of dropsy of the heart, Samuel Moore was called from his earthly labors to his heavenly home. He was born in Guilford County, North Carolina, in 1808, where he resided until 1860. At that time, believing that war between the North and South was inevitable, and his sympathies being strongly with the North, fearing that his sons would be compelled to take part in the Southern cause, disposed of his property at a great sacrifice, and emigrated to the State of Indiana, where he remained until 1867, at which time removed to Chase County, Kansas, where he lived until his death. He was the faither of eight children, who all survive except one. He lived to see all his children married and settled in life, with whom he spent the greater part of his last ten years, and was always a welcome visitor. Possessing an unusually strong filial affection, he was bound to his kindred by ties that only death could sever. He was a life-long member of the Society of Friends (Orthodox), in which he held the position of elder for over thirty years, and was also a strong advocate of peace and temperance. During his last illness he bore his sufferings with great patience, resigning all into the hands of the Lord.
