Author: Progressive Men of Western Colorado

     Joseph Moore, brother of Thomas, who in his younger days was a school

teacher and held certificates of qualification as such from four states, was

born in Morgan county, Ohio, in 1830.  He lived in Ohio, Indiana, Iowa near the

Nebraska line, and Colorado.  In 1897 he was stricken with paralysis, and since

then has done no active work.  He is a joint owner with Thomas of the farm on

which they live, and has never married.  His services as a teacher were highly

appreciated by all who had the benefit of them, as he was a most progressive

educator and far ahead of his day in the profession in many ways, and while

possessing breadth of view as a theorist was highly endowed with executive

ability and teaching power.  He also exhibited high character and admired

courtesy of manner in his work.
