| Personal Notes: |
| Hory Moore grew up in the Tarago District of NSW. He had been a groom for Cobb & Co. He married Ellenor Davis when she was 20 years old, so her father had to give permission. They came to Old Junee in 1886 where Hory became a Fettler. Before that, Hory had been a farmer and timber cutter in the Lake Bathurst area. His parents also were farming. From Old Junee the family moved into Junee then in 1893, then they rented Lilly's paddock on the Old Sydney Road in Ivor District which made him eligible to draw a block of land. In 1895 he selected "Inglewood" on the Trevithin Road near Junee Reefs where they farmed and raised their 14 children. They left the farm in 1912 (son, Will farmed it). Hory was confined to a wheelchair for the last five years of his life from rheumatism. He was at the best of times an irascible man, but this really made him bad-tempered - however, he could still laugh at himself. They returned to Junee to live after having tried to settle in Goulburn for 2 years until 1914. They lived in a house called "St Elma" on the corner of Prince Street and Illabo Road, Junee. This house was later destroyed by fire. Hory had a home called "Bonnie Doon" built in Boundary Street Junee; the doors were made wheelchair accessible. It was here that with help from daughters they ran a boarding house for their income. Hory was a great lover of music and had some talent in this area, as were some of his children. He loved Irish dances. He used to play the "Ockarina" and the organ. He also became a staunch Methodist. Hory, while young used to grow potatoes for sale in the Lake Bathurst area. Bushrangers regularly dug some out - no-one tried to stop them. Hory also used to join in the well-planned "Pademelon" shoots; these were working-bees wherein men burned the stubble and shooting parties would cull all the fleeing rodents. The women then attended bringing picnic baskets. |
