Finding information on the life and death of Bartholemew has been a long, difficult process. I am a great great granddaughter of Bartholemew. His youngest son, Thomas, was my great grandfather. After a long search of Mt. Calvary (formerly St Marguerite's) Cemetery I was convinced that there was no grave marker for Bartholemew and I contacted the funeral home for further information. Bartholemew was buried in the plot with his wife Mary and his older brother Mathias. There are no stones for either man.
If anyone reads this bio and would like to compare information on the Moore family please feel free to send me an email.
