Most of my Moores (the ones descended from Samuel Moore of Greenville) stayed in SC up into the 20th century; my branch was one of the exceptions - they went to Texas in 1877. I just recently found another branch that went to Alabama in the 1850s. However, there is a group of Moores that I am interested in (some common first names and an association with a family that is associated with "my" Moores) - I believe this group did go to Mississippi. I am trying to find out if they are connected to the man I believe may have been Samuel Moore's brother.Greta Koehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05429623811794360612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-77669520615359941242009-02-18T17:59:00.000-08:002009-02-18T17:59:00.000-08:00Thank you for writing such an informative post abo...Thank you for writing such an informative post about South Carolina records. Just in case you haven't already found this, large numbers of South Carolinians, including many Moore families, migrated into Misissippi when new lands were opened up for settlement after treaties were signed with the Choctaw Nation in the 1830s. Good luck in your research.Janice Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11418381065941525964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-44702893930159354922009-02-03T16:40:00.000-08:002009-02-03T16:40:00.000-08:00Thank you for your kind comments, Ginger.

I've enjoyed your blog, too (there is a comment on the Arkansas post); as a matter of fact, I was checking out how many geographic areas we have in common - quite a few southern areas plus Illinois (I don't have anyone in Indiana that I know of, though).Greta Koehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05429623811794360612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-70373699337439710642009-02-03T05:56:00.000-08:002009-02-03T05:56:00.000-08:00Greta, this is a great detailed post about both th...Greta, this is a great detailed post about both the databases and the way you work your way through them.

The State Archives have tons of material online, the Greenville government and library sites have scads of stuff - actual scans of documents or at least really good indexes, and the obituary search index is fabulous. I'm just so glad I have ancestors there.Greta Koehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05429623811794360612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-56246324567318276152009-02-01T21:06:00.000-08:002009-02-01T21:06:00.000-08:00Greta, I'm very, very, grateful to you for the inf...Greta, I'm very, very, grateful to you for the info you've provided in this post. My husband recently found a half-brother in Greenville whom he had never met.
