    Grandpa Moore was born on the 12th day of December, 1775, in what is now known as the city of Rahway, N.J., then called Bridgeton, Colony of New Jersey, under the rule of the Monarch of England. Twenty-five years of his life were spent near his native town. He then moved to Nova Scotia, in the vicinity of Halifax, engaging in the manufacture of hats, &c. After a number of years spent in this province, he returned to New Jersey, where he remained until 1810. While in New Jersey he again engaged in the manufacture of hats. Soon after his return he married his first wife.
    ... In 1800 he made his first visit to New York City, then a population of about 75,000. ... He never visited the city but once after that, in 1816.
    In 1816 he started with his family, in a lumber wagon, for Chippewa, C.W. The journey was made through the central part of New York, and occupied, some twenty days.
    Forty years of his life was spent in Chippewa. Here he lost his first wife, and married again. His second wife was Mrs. Mary Colton, grandmother of Mrs. Edward Sales, of this place. All of his children were buried in Chippewa. After the death of his second wife, in 1857, Grandpa came to Lake Superior, where he has since resided in the family of Mr. Sales, and up to a few months ago, has enjoyed perfect health, sawing and splitting wood, doing garden work, and ready at all times to give a helping hand.
    Grandpa Moore joined the Methodist church over seventy-five years ago, and has always lived the life of a consistent and conscientious christian.
