After the hurricane Fran hit in 1996 I went to Moores Creek and wandered around. The thing that stuck me most was the trees that had been stripped of most of there foliage by the winds and the stark beauty of the statue. That is what inspired me to paint the image. This is a great site with a great deal more importance than people give it. Thanks for the beautiful photography.

For service at MCB and the battle of King's Mountain, Adoniram was awarded 5,000 in southeastern Kentucky, Clay County, where his direct descendants live today. Although I am from south eastern Kentucky originally, my family have lived in the Raleigh area for almost 25 years. I had always wondered how my ancestors settled in Kentucky. Now I know.

My six times Great Grandfather Joshua Sikes (Sykes) also fought at Moores Bridge along with your five times G.Grandfather. I was planning to visit the site sometime but after seeing your wonderful photos I feel like I've already been there. Thank you! Hello Tim.

My genealogy runs as follows: Zachariah to Merriman to Calvin to Joseph James (died fighting in the War Between the States), to William Davis, to Karl, to Clifford, to me. I sincerely hope you will contact me and share your genealogy information with me. I have my research recorded on a CD and will be glad to send you a copy, if you would like to have it. Do you have any further information on where Zachariah came from, who his father was, etc. I know that Wanda Head believes his father was John, others believe his father was Zachariah from Holland. I look forward to hearing from you. (I also love photography. Your pictures are great. Thanks for sharing on the internet. Sincerely, Carlis Tim, I enjoyed viewing your web page.
