1. {{Puritan Great Migration}}[[Category: Immigrants to Massachusetts Bay Colony from England]][[Category:Moore Name Study]] ==Biography== == Origins and Wives == Seeking proof (if any) that he was the son of [[Moore-3195|John Moore]] (or [[Morse-360|Joseph Morse]]) and [[Barber-640|Dorothy Barber]] (or this [[Barber-631|Dorothy Barber]]). Until such proof is found, we are disconnecting John Moore, the immigrant, from these parents. If he was the John Moore of Henham, co. Essex,<ref>Anderson, "The English Origins of Philemon Whale," ''The Genealogist'' 6:134, 139-40)</ref> then he married (1) about 1625 Elizabeth _____; he married (2) at Little Gaddesden, do. Hertford, 27 Nov 1633 Elizabeth Rice, daughter of Henry and Elizabeth (Frost) Rice and stepdaughter of Philemon1 Whale, later of Sudbury. She was baptized at Stanstead, co. Essex, on 18 Nov 1612 and died in Sudbury, Massachusetts, on 14 Dec 1690 as "widow Elizabeth Moore."<ref>NEHGR 17:140</ref> == Life in New England == There is uncertainty about when John Moore arrived in New England. Ifthe baptism of Mary, daughter of John Moore, in Berkhamstead on 9 Jan1641/2 is that of a daughter of the immigrant, he must have arrived after that time. While the town history claims that John Moore was at the Sudbury settlement soon after it began (1638-1639),<ref>''The History of Sudbury'', [https://www.wikitree.com/photo/The_History_of_Sudbury.jpg Page 26]</ref> the first record of his presence is in September 1642, when he bought of [[Rice-52|Edmund Rice]] (father of his soon-to-be [[Rice-53|son-in-law]]) a house and land situated in the east part of the town, in the southerly part of what is now the town of Wayland.<ref name=Bolton303>Bolton, Ethel Stanwood. Some Descendants of John Moore of Sudbury, Mass.

It was finally sold, about the time of the Revolution, by a Cambridge man,who happened at the time to be living in Sudbury, but who was not a descendant of John Moore of Sudbury. 1645: He took the oath of fidelity at Sudbury July 9 1645.<ref name=Bolton303/> The same year, he bought of John Stone a dwelling house and house lot, and all other lands and meadows belonging to Stone by virtue of his right in the beginning of the plantation of Sudbury. 1653: He subscribed to the covenant of Lancaster "11th first mo. 1653," and forty acres of land were laid out in his name, and the first grant of lots (1653. 30th 9mo").{{Citation Needed}} He died 6 January 1673/4.<ref name=Bolton303/> == Last Will & Testament == His will<ref>Worcester Co Probate #10921</ref> was dated the 25th of August 1668, and was probated the 7th of April 1674.

2. [[Category:Puritan Great Migration]] {{Puritan Great Migration}} ---- == Disputed Origins ==Elizabeth was the daughter of Henry Rice and Elizabeth (Frost) Whale.She was the adopted daughter of Elizabeth'S second husband Philemon Whale. Many genealogical studies of John(1) Moore and his family claim that his last wife was Elizabeth, daughter of Philemon1 Whale of Sudbury, who calls her his daughter in his will. Many have taken this to mean that she was Elizabeth, bapt 31 Jan 1593 to Philemon Whale in Checkney, Essex England.<ref>IGI Batch #F506660, sheet 047, call #1553362, citing Film 455484, Parish Registers of Chickney, Essex; baptisms</ref> Robert Charles Anderson<ref>Robert Charles Anderson, "The English Origins of Philemon Whale of Sudbury, Massachusetts,'' in ''The Genealogist,'' 6 (1985):131-41</ref> has argued that she was actually a daughter of Henry and Elizabeth (Frost) Rice of Stanstead, co. Suffolk, England, and a ''stepdaughter'' of Philemon Whale, who married Henry Rice'swidow. Philemon Whale did not marry Elizabeth Frost (widow of Henry Rice) until 1621, had their first child (dau Sarah) in 1622; a subsequent birth of Elizabeth would too late to parent the Elizabeth who marries in 1639. Then to really confirm this, "...a microfilm of a transcript of the Bishop's Transcripts for Little Gaddesden was checked (FHL #1040857, item 3)... under the date of 27 Nov 1633, we find the marriage of 'Johannes More & Elizabetha Rice." ... There can be no doubt that this is the marriage of the immigrants to Sudbury, Mass.<ref>John Plummer, "The English Origin of John1 Moore of Sudbury, Massachusetts," in ''The American Genealogist,'' 66(1991):75-77</ref> == Biography == She was baptized 18 Nov 1612 in Stanstead, Suffolk, England, daughterof Henry Rice (d. 1620) and Elizabeth Frost. She married John Moore 27 Nov 1633 in Little Gaddesden, England. She died 14 Dec 1690 in Sudbury, Middlesex, Massachusetts. == Sources == <references /> <!-- Please edit, add, or delete anything in this text, including this note. Be bold and experiment!

He died 31 July 1685 in Lexington, Middlesex, Massachusetts. Some trees assert that she is the Lydia Moore who married John Wetherbee in 1684. This is unlikely, since John Cutler did not die until 1685, and the marriage records for the Wetherbee/Moore marriage refers toWetherbee's wife as Lydia Moore, not Lydia Cutler. Additionally, she would have been 52 when her last child was born - not impossible, but unlikely. She died 23 Nov 1723.
