I am trying to find any person descended from John Moor of Mistley near Manningtree Essex. He lived between 1790 and 1853 when he died. He owned a public house called the Wherry Inn and operated a ferry service to Harwich. He had two sons the elder was called John Moor who married Ann Kerridge and the younger Elijah Moor who married Elizabeth Harriet Cook. I would be plesaee to hear from any one connected to him or his family. Rod Smith

Hello Rod,
My Grandmother, Edna Marie Moor was born at Harwich in 1892. I have nothing except her father was drowned at sea rescuing a shild on a sinking ship. I am led to believe she may have been related to one on the Sadler family from manningtee but can't find anything about that, possibly a military man. let me know if you think there might be a connection please.
