P_10433_1365 – Mordecai Moore
Born: Unknown
Died: 1721
Mordecai Moore was co-owner of a slaving voyage from London by the Hope to Calabar and Port Royal in 1692. The Hope under the same captain made another slaving voyage from Maryland to Calabar and Patuxent in 1694. Mordecai Moore, a Quaker of Maryland, was physician to Lord Baltimore. The connection to the slaving voyage to Port Royal has not been established by RBST, but secondary scholarship identifies the co-owners of the voyage of the Hope including Mordecai Moore with a group of Quakers in Maryland.
