Caroline (Lina) Amelia Moore (10/5/1863-6/16/1924, dau. of

son (b/d. 4/23/1894); Joseph (9/1/1899-9/18/1963); unnamed
daughter (b/d. 2/14/1904). It is tempting to ascribe this record of 4
stillbirths out of 9 deliveries to the longstanding Wood/Moore
tradition of marriages between first cousins.

(1996) James Moore, together with his cousins Samuel A. and Thomas M. Moore [see R354], enlisted on 4/30/1863 as Privates in Company I
of the 19th Virginia Cavalry. The National Archives records [S088] say little about their Civil War careers. They were paroled in Charleston W.V. 5/11/1865. James’s parole slip describes him as age 34, height 5’ 7”, light complexion, blue eyes, light hair, light whiskers.
James and Sarah died young, Sarah in 1872 and James in 1874. James’s will was probated 12/18/1874. It named as devisees his children Mary, John, Bukey William, Thomas, Caroline, Sarah, and Joseph, and a wife named Henrietta; apparently he remarried after Sarah’s death.
