• http://boards.ancestry.com/surnames.moore/19639/mb.ashx “ John and Elizabeth Moore settled in Elizabeth City County, Viginia, where he patented land at the head of the Little Poquoson Creek in 1535. Eminent Americal genealogists researched all this in the 1890s and first decade of the 1900s - published in the William and Mary Quarterly and other papers. They did not succeed in establishing John Moore's ancestry. They showed that he was sometimes confused - and still is - with a Captain John Moore (of unknown birthplace and ancestry) who arrived in Virginia around the same time, but who settled in Isle of Wight where he eventually became a Burgess. The American genealogists established that John Moore and Elizabeth (second name said to be "Merritt") had only ONE son, Augustine. This Augustine married and had two children: Augustine II and John (who died childless in 1715-16). Augustine II (grandson of John the immigrant) married Mary Woolley and had a number of children (including an Augustine who died unmarried in 1637). As a footnote: There is no connection between these Augustines and the Col. Augustine Moore who married (his second wife) Elizabeth Todd.“
