from Some of the Descendants of Rev. Richard Denton by Edythe Johns Rucker Whitley

Agnes Denton, married Garrett Moore. They lived near Boles, Kentucky and are buried near Boles. Garrett Moore died 1852.....

Thomas and Samuel Moore, both veterans of the Revolution, lived in the 15th District (Moore’s Cove) of White County, in 1832 (Thomas was 70 and Samuel was 72). According to Mr. William Curtis Stone, Sr., who stated that in 1945 he talked with Indemon Moore (Garrett Moore also had son named Indemon) of Doyle, Tennessee, (he was 75 and Alexander Moore about 70) relative to the pioneer Moores and was told that Thomas Moore reared a large family and that his son Garrett Moore moved to Jackson County after marrying Agnes Denton. Five Dentons married five Moores and there is reason to believe these were all children of Thomas Moore.
