A William Baldwin, very probably his son, signed a petition to His Majesty in Behalf of Governor Berkeley in 1676 praising his administration.(17 C-161)He was therefore a Loyalist.

He married is Sept. 6, 1679, Mrs. Elizabeth Barlow, widow of Thomas Barlow whose will was recorded April 9, 1679. (BK A-179)As Mrs. Elizabeth Baldwin she presented an inventory of Thomas Barlow’s estate on June 6, 1679. (Id 200)

Mr. Lundie Barlow, in his chapter on the Barlow family which will appear in Volume II of this series, states that Elizabeth was probably a sister of George and Thomas Moore.They were sons of John Moore, Burgess of Isle of Wight 1640 (5V233).John Moore patented 300 acres on the western Branch of Nansemond River March 11, 1664, 200 acres granted John Bryan March 18, 1662, who sold to said Moore and 100 acres for the transportation of John Moore’s wife and John Clarke. (C. P. 480)John Moore probably died in Nansemond leaving wife Ann who afterwards married a Mr. Baron and then Anthony Matthews.

I’m off a generation.

This John Moore, Il & his wife Anne Davis



From https://sallysfamilyplace.com/maple-lawn/george-moore-jane-barcroft/

George Moore (ca 1634 – 1714) |his parents/ & Jane Barcroft (ca 1641 – ), daughter of Charles Barcroft (ca 1610 – 1666) & Maudlin [relict] of Isle of Wight County, Virginia. George Moore married Jane, daughter of Charles Barcroft. This George Moore was the brother of Thomas Moore 1643 – 1696 married ca 1665 Elizabeth [widow of Samuel Eldridge]. They probably also had a sister. From Dr. Barry Hayes. “The circumstantial evidence is strong that Mrs. Priscilla Champion was…. a sister of the proved brothers a.Thomas Moore and b. George Moore…… e. –?– Moore and his wife Mrs. Anne Rogers Moore Baron Matthews Davis, whose only Moore son was yet another John Moore, f. Elizabeth Moore who married 1st Thomas Barlow and 2nd William Baldwin, and g. Katherine Moore who married 1st unknown and 2nd Robert Flake.”

Bingo.
