    Mrs. David McCutcheon, Everton, & James, who resides with his family on the homestead. Mr. Moore was one of a family of 4 sons & 2 daughters, of whom only one remains, Mr. Samuel Moore, of Mount forest. With the exception of four years spent in Acton Mr. & Mrs. Moore lived all their married life on the farm.

No. 414, & was always ready for the Twelfth of July parade. For several years he was a School Trustee.
