About Joab Moore

ID: I168

Name: Joab MOORE

Sex: M

Change Date: 29 JUN 2006

Birth: ABT 1855 in Pickens Co., SC

Death: in GA

Note: Please note that the date and place of Joab's death is presently under investigation. Family lore has placed his death on 21 August 1909. Descendents were told that Joab was murdered in GA--where supposedly he lived at the time-- by person(s) unknown. What little that we know from primary source data conflicts with 1909 as year of death. We are attempting to identify where he might have been killed and reconcile the descrepancies in information.
