Captain Moore married the daughter of the Hon. Abraham Burbank of West Springfield Mass, and the grand daughter of Colonel Seth Pomeroy of Northampton, Mass, who was an off, cer at the siege of Louisburg, and the battle of Lake George, in colonial days; was a delegate to the provincial con- gress of Massachusetts in 1774-75; a brigadier of the state militia, fought at Bunker Hill, and was commissioned as senior brigadier-general by the Conti- mental congress. Engaging in the struggle of the Revolution, he yielded up his"life at Peekskill N. Y.. in 1777. An extract from the deed of this prop erty. bearing date August 30 1S10, de- scribes the lot as "the following piece or parcel of ground situated in the city of Hartford, on the northeast wardly side of Main street, being fifty six feet in front on said Main street, two hundred and twenty feet deep and seventy feet wide In the rear bounded southwardly on Main street; west wardly on land of Joseph Keney; east wardly on land of Samuel Driggs; and northwardLy on land of Nathaniel Patten, for the price of three hundred and seventy-two dollars, being the highest price, in cash. for which said land could be sold" The Joseph Ke- ney mentioned in the document was the father of Henry and Walter Ke- ney; and a brother of his wife, MT. Robert Turner, conducted store ad- joining his residence, which later be- came the site of the extensive business of the Messrs. Keney. Two of the grandchildren, who passed their child hood and youth in this old Main street home, are MT. Henry Moore Schmuck of West Springfield, Mass, and Mrs. F. W. J. Sizer of New Haven, Conn.
