Hullo,
I wonder if this enquiry will throw up any lucky information regarding Samuel Moore and his wife Jane (ne้ Black) of Limavardy. Sumuel was born in 1789 and died 1858. He apparently had 10 sons and at least one daughter, some of whom emigrated to Australia. One of the sons was my great grandfather, William Glendye Moore. The attached memorial card is of David Moore (or Davit, as he seems to have been called), William Glendye's younger brother. (William died in 1882, leaving his wife, Charlotte - my great grandmother - with 5 children.) SORRY - THE IMAGE COULDN'T BE ATTACHED.
I've been searching for information about the Moore family for a while now and would love to know if there are any descendants still living in Limavady or round-about.
When Samuel Moore died in 1858, he left some land. There is is record - 'Griffith Land Valuation Limavady relating to Irish Green, Newtown, Limavady, Drumachose, Derry.
This is just a stab in the dark - but perhaps the recipient of this message might know something and be kind enough to let me know.
