Olivet Cemetery, Hannibal, Missouri, daughter of JEROME DUNBAR and ELIZABETH GREENE .
According to family legend, Byron MOORE immigrated to America from Ireland with his family at the age of 8 or 9 sometime around 1850. (The port of entry is not known at this time.) During immigration processing, he became separated from his parents. He never found them again. He was, therefore, raised in an orphanage. Nothing has been found on Byron’s early years at this time. The first time a record on Byron can be found is when he enlisted in the Civil War.
Byron enlisted as a volunteer in Havana, IL on 18 January 1864. He was mustered in at Camp Butler in Springfield, IL for the 28th Illinois Infantry, Company C. Byron was paid a $60 bounty for enlisting. He was later paid $300 bounty over three installments. According to the Muster Rolls, Byron was 5' 5.5" with light colored hair, grey eyes and a light complexion. On his military service paperwork, Byron claimed to have been born in JoDavies County, IL. His residence at the time of enlistment was in Petersburg, Menard County, IL.
Byron MOORE was a member of the 28th Illinois Infantry. He was hospitalized from April 9-21 1864 in the Regimental Hospital with colitis. The company arrived at Natchez, Mississippi in the heat of the summer. At Natchez, Byron was hospitalized by a bayonet wound in the stomach. Following his discharge from the Regiment Hospital in Natchez, Mississippi, he returned to duty. The company moved throughout the Mississippi and Louisiana, arriving in Kunerville, Louisiana on 6 January 1865. On 12 February, the company embarked for Mobile Point, Louisiana. They encountered a heavy gale on the voyage and were compelled to throw overboard 130 mules and horses in order to save the vessel.
On March 27th, they participated in an advance upon Spanish Fort. The Regiment occupied the extreme right of the Division and Corps with Colonel Ritter commanding, and Major Rhodes in command of skirmish line. They held this position during the entire siege of 14 days losing 14 killed and wounded including two Captains.
The 28th Illinois Infantry was made up of 1720 recruits. During their enlistment, 34 enlisted men died of wounds with 265 men wounded, 139 enlisted men died of disease and 17 men missing in action. The Twenty-eighth was mustered out of the service 15 March 1866, at Brownsville, Texas arriving at Camp Butler 13 May 1866, for final payment and discharge.
There are two flags associated with the Illinois 28th Infantry: 28th Illinois Infantry National Flag and 28th Illinois Infantry Regimental Flag. The 28th Illinois Infantry National Flag is inscribed with battle honors: FORT HENRY; FORT HEIMAN; LITTLE BETHEL FEB 13; PITTSBURG LANDING, TENN. APRIL 6 AND 7; HATCHIE OCT 5. The 28th Illinois Infantry Regimental Flag has the position of the stars above the eagle and the raised center section of the lower scroll together with the embellishments on the ends of the scroll are typical of those flags manufactured in New York.
Byron married Emily A. TAZWELL on 8 July 1866 in Menard County, IL. Byron and Emily were divorced about 3 months later and had no children. By 1868, Byron made his way to Ralls County, Missouri.
Byron married Martha E. DUNBAR at New London, Ralls County, Missouri on 18 February 1868 by Reverend STARR, M.E. Minister. Martha E. DUNBAR was the daughter of Jerome and Elizabeth GREEN DUNBAR, born in Lewis County, Missouri on 28 December 1850. Martha’s family had strong ties to the south during the Civil War with an uncle serving in the Confederacy as an officer, being killed at Vicksburg, Mississippi. No evidence has been found, but with tensions still high between the North and South in 1868, Byron must have felt like he was walking into the Lion’s Den when he married Martha. According to the memories of her granddaughter, Eunice MOORE LAWYER was told her father's mother (Martha) was a "corn-cob smoking lady from Virginia".
On the 1870 Federal Census for Saverton Township, Ralls County, Missouri, the household of Byron MOORE contained Martha and a 1- year old Minnie. The 1870 Federal Census is the first record found, thus far, which states Byron was born in Ireland, with "Father Foreign Born" and "Mother Foreign Born".
According to Byron’s Application for a Civil War Pension, Byron and Martha MOORE had 5 children living on 10 January 1898. Byron lists the children and their birth dates as follows: R.H. Moore born April 1871, James Moore born December 18, 1874, Lizzie MOORE born April 16, 1878, Martin MOORE born January 14, 1880, and Mosses born April 4, 1886. Because no other known documents refer to Minnie MOORE, it is assumed Minnie passed away sometime between 1870-1880.
According to the Declaration for Pension signed by Byron MOORE, Byron was living in Burlington, Des Moines County, Iowa on May 21, 1912. In order to prevent Confederate soldiers from claiming a military pension, each soldier had to list his "places of residence since leaving the service". Byron listed the following residences: "Jacksonville, Ill 3 months, Carrollton, Ill 9 mos., Hannibal, MO 4 yrs., Whitehall, Ill, back to Hannibal, then Kansas City MO 1.5 yrs, then to Hannibal, then to Springfield, Ill, Quincy, Ill, Keokuk, IA then to Burlington in 1910".
Byron MOORE died 12 April 1915 in Hannibal, Missouri. The informant on the death certificate was his son, Robert MOORE, who stated Byron was born in Ireland, the son of Hugh MOORE and an unknown mother. Byron was buried 13 April 1915 at Mt. Olivet Cemetery in Hannibal, Missouri. Martha died 9 September 1921 in Hannibal, MO. Her final resting place is Mt. Olive Cemetery in Hannibal, Missouri.
