Story # 3

All Gores in America are descendants of Sir Paul in England. This story comes from The Genealogy of the Gore Family by George T. Swain:

     Thus, we have been able to establish, without a doubt, that the progenitor of the Gore clan was of the aristocracy of England, and this established fact is further borne out with many complex characteristics of the clan down through the ages, viz: The Gores named as descendants of Sir Paul, in England, were practically all connected with some branch of the military of the country, even through the second World War; and this has been typical of his descendants as we will record later. Then, too, the family names of sons and daughters have been carried down through the generations that have followed (page 4).

We have researched city directories of all the cities in the Nation which we could obtain and we find one or more Gore families listed. There are a multitude of Gore descendants scattered over the good old United States of America and, judging from the many family given names found, we are convinced that they are all descendants from the same ancestors leading back to Sir Paul Gore of English birth, yet a Britain who settled in Ireland, established Manor Gore, and created a coat of arms (pages 18, 19).
Dr. C. S. Goar, 740 Bankers Trust Building, Indianapolis, Indiana had contributed some history which had been furnished by his sister, Clarissa Emily (Goar) Kleyla, now deceased. She had visited her old homestead in West Virginia where James and Sarah Farley Gore had resided and she secured information from Thomas Gore of Tower Hill, Mercer County, Mrs. Ida Spangler of Peterstown, and from others living in the vicinity. It was related to her that Henry Gore came from Ireland to New York some time before the French and Indian War of 1754. (This is the most direct tie we have uncovered linking the descendants to Sir Paul Gore, of County Donegal, Ireland, who established Manor Gore, and initiated the Gore coat of arms) (page 26).
Then, too, the children of these early adventurers had little chance for obtaining an education and, thus, we have lost to members of these early voyagers accross the mountains, a heritage that could shine with brilliance for it is an established fact that the Gore clan came from royalty; were aristocrats in the old World; and have been honored for their valor in the field of battle (page 43).
Mr. Swain has made the assumption that all Gores are related to each other. This is simply not true. The ancestry of John Gore of Roxbury, Massachusetts can be traced back to his 2nd great grandfather Richard Gore whose will was probated 11 May 1543 at Nether Wallop, Hampshire. None of Richard's children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, or 2nd great grandchildren were named Paul. Sir Paul Gore who died in September 1629 was of a different lineage than John of Roxbury. As far as I am able to determine, John of Roxbury is the only Gore who arrived in 17th century America whose ancestry can be traced to a relative in England. Mr. Swain has commited a serious error in taking the false information that Henry Gore was born in Ireland and then using it to substantiate a connection to Sir Paul Gore. The Christ Church Parish Register clearly shows that Henry Gore was born 10 September 1736 in Middlesex County, Virginia. From the data available, his great grandfather John the immigrant came to Virginia from England, not Ireland. So Mr. Swain is not correct when he says that it is an established fact that the Gores came from royalty. There is simply no evidence to support such a claim.
