The Resurrection of Moores Blog?

Hi Moore Family Member, this has got to be a record for silence! My sister Marye has suggested we try working  some communications on this bog. I'm for it!  I just got back from the 2013 Moore Memorial, and it was,  as always, inspirational for me.  As you may know, Connie and I are interested in genealogy. I'm becoming somewhat disenchanted with the Genealogical/Social Societies out there whose meetings we attend. We like genealogy for the historical aspects. One of our friends, a Jesuit who had taught Pacific School of Religion at Berkeley , and a smart guy, asked me why we liked genealogy and I told him  because of history. He suggested that the bad thing is when one uses theior heritage to lord it over those with less illustrious ancestors. In the case of my Jesuit friend, he was a black Jamaican with a Chinese father , and no idea of his slave ancestry.
