Peggy Brooks Moore



***An update - long overdue on Peggy - she is at home, recovering still but very happy and comfortable. I visited with her last week and she kept me in stitches. My Mom, Jeanne and my brother, Scott also were with me as we visited family in Burlington.****

Peggy Brooks Moore, daughter of Garland and Belva Brooks, sister of (surviving) Jeanne, Katherine, Ronnie, wife of William Moore, and mother of Mark Bright.

What a darling of the family - she needs our prayers right now. She is in Alamance Regional Hospital undergoing tests. Send a card her way or a visit if you can. She is a very special person in the Brooks family and we wish her all the best in her recovery!

Important link to Civil War heroes

Findagrave.com is a fantastic link to our ancestor's graves and RJ Shepherd's Civil War Shepherd's memorial site on FindAGrave.com is definitely worth a visit.

He has extensively researched and documented with pictures as well as written material as many Shepherd war veterans as possible and done a fantastic job of it. Many of these are our direct ancestors. You may have to join Findagrave.com to look - I am a member with many links to our ancestors. My name is DiffeeDenise on the site.


Joining the site is very easy and I hope you all will find it interesting and helpful.
