Moorefield Family
In an e-mail dated Aug. 23, 2000, Pat (Moorefield) Seaver identified the parents of Henderson Moorefield as Allen Moorefield and Mary Harris. She also included his siblings:
Children of Allen Moorefield and Mary Harris

Richard Moorefield (abt. 1858-aft. 1870)
Pleasant Moorefield (1860-1935) m. Nancy Wood (1851-1922)
Walter Henderson Moorefield (1862-1933) m. Mary Ann Corn (1861-1919), d/o Richard and Naomi Corn
This family in Stokes County, NC 1860. Previously most of the above children were recorded as children of Nellie Corn Moorefield, Henderson's second wife. But Paulina is still living in 1860 and appears to be the mother of all the children listed above. Pleasant Moorefield is not listed in the 1860 census, possibly because he was born after the census was taken.
This generation of children modified on April 6, 2002 and on January 4, 2007. The 1900 US Federal Census, Snow Creek Township, Stokes County, NC, Nellie Moorefield is clearly identified as the step-mother of Walter Henderson Moorefield.
