Reminiscences Of York, Maurice Augustus Moore, Celina E. Means

Rare Books

Dr. Maurice Augustus Moore [1795-1871] penned “Reminiscences of York” in the mid-1800s to record his memories of the York district of his child- and young adulthood. The memoir is, in Moore’s words, “a record of individuals, manners, customs and reminiscences of an old man.” Topics include the Catawba Indians, Thomas Spratt, Col. William Hill, education, the Revolutionary War, anecdotes, descriptions of the town of Yorkville and various communities in the district, as well as information on many families in the area. The volume also includes a biographical sketch of Dr. Moore by Celina E. Means.
