Notes:

!NOTES:Marty Grant's 6th Great Grand Parent (Step, 1st wife, I'm from 2nd wife);


!NOTES:Her birth date of ca 1730 is a very rough estimate. We don't know when she was born;


!NOTES:See Letter from Charles A. Moore to Mrs. Jackson 7 Sep 1903
http://www.martygrant.com/genealogy/moore/moore-charles-letter-1903.htm


!NOTES:I don't know that Ann Cathey Moore is a sister of George or not, but she fits there very well for various reasons:
1. This would make her a sister of George Cathey (1735) whose son George (1755) had a daughter, also named Ann Cathey, who married William H. Moore, the elder Ann's son. That would make Ann (Jr) and her spouse 1st cousins once removed.
