Daily Local News, February 24, 1891
William Moore died at his home in West Marborough township on Sunday, the 22d 
inst., in his 81st year. About two years ago he had a paralytic stroke which 
did not entirely disable him, but from the effects of which he never recovered. 
Mr. Moore was a carpenter and was engaged in that trade until about four years 
previous to his affliction. He resided in the township where he died twenty 
years and was regarded as one of the most respectable citizens of that 
locality. Although he never held office his judgment in securing the services 
of capable men for official positions was relied upon to a large extent. By his 
unassuming deportment and freedom from interference with the affairs of his 
neighbors deceased made numerous warm friends, who often spoke of him as a 
model citizen and exemplary man. 

The following named children survive the deceased: Harvey Moore, near West 
Chester; Jesse Moore, Doe Run; Isaac Moore, of Indiana, and Lydia Ann, at the 
homestead.
