(snip)
Esther Lamira's brother, Benjamin Franklin Moore, also moved to CO about 1863, along with his father-in-law, Lewis Jones (B.F. Moore's wife was Nancy). Jones was an important businessman in Independence, ran freighters on the Santa Fe Trail, and took at least one group of wagons to California in 1849. He returned to Independence in the mid 1870?s, where he died and is buried.
B.F. Moore helped organize and pastor the Cumberland Presbyterian Church in Caņon City in 1867. He was a well-known itinerant minister throughout the area. He was killed in Cotopaxi when he was 81 years old. He attempted to cross train tracks and was run over by a train. According to news reports, he had lost his hearing and probably didn?t hear the train coming.
