Notes |
- The Chester Lantern, 17 April 1906:
Thomas Wade Moore, one of the signers of the Ordinance of Secession, was
born in Chester County, South Carolina in 1809, east of __(torn)__ . He
entered the freshman class at the South Carolina College when he was
sixteen years of age. He left college in his junior year and returned to
his mother's home where he began reading medicine under his
brother-in-law, Dr. John Douglass. Thomas Wade Moore graduated at the
Charleston Medical College with distinction when he was 21 years old.
After his graduation his mother moved to Chester, South Carolina where
she occupied the house which stood on the Lot now occupied by Dr. G.B.
White's residence. After two years his mother decided to return to her
plantation in Fairfield County, S.C. and Dr. Thomas Wade Moore settled in
the Fishing Creek neighborhood where he soon acquired a large practice
and attained eminence in his profession. He was also a large planter. He
devoted himself to the practice of medicine for a number of years but
finding it too laborious, finally gave it up and devoted his time and
energy to his farming interests.
