Author: History of Cook County, IL; 1884

WILLIAM HENDLEY GORE was born in 1851, near Zanesville, Ohio, of Townsend and 
Ann Amanda (Hoge) Gore. The father was a member of the Legislature from 1860 
to 1864, and removed to Illinois in 1865, settling near Morris, Grundy County. 
In 1878 young Gore went to Kansas, where, in 1879, he began the business of 
sheep-raising, about thirty-five miles from Wallace, in which he still retains 
an interest, the firm being known as Gore Brothers. In the summer of 1882 he 
became a member of the firm of Hubbard & Gore, druggists, at the corner of 
Thirty-ninth Street and Cottage Grove Avenue. Mr. Gore was married February 2, 
1882, to Mary Bulkley, of Morris, Ill., by whom he has had one child, Anna 
Louise, born November 1, 1882. He became a member of the Masonic Order in 
1875; and is a Republican in politics.
