    Notes:

    The Mississippi County Historical Society (The Moore Home)

    The Moore House was occupied continuously by family members from 1899 to 1977. When the house became vacant in 1977, James Handy Moore, name-sake and grandson of the original builder, and his brother, William Bird Moore, deeded the home to the Mississippi County Historical Society. The House was presented as a memorial to their parents, Joseph Hunter Moore and Caroline McFadden Moore, and grandparents, James Handy Moore and Mary Bird Hunter Moore.

    Besides being the home of one of Southeast Missouri's prominent families, the house is significantly historical itself and is listed on the National Register of Historical Places. The Victorian structure was built in 1899 and was designed by J.C. Legg, a St. Louis architect, who also designed several courthouses including the Mississippi County Courthouse in Charleston. Built in the more modern "brick veneer fashion, the original home cost approximately $7,500 when constructed. This cost included a servant house which was built on the property using some of the remaining lumber.

    The Moore House is located at 403 N. Main Street and opened to the public for a variety of events during the year and may be toured at other times with advance arrangements. The home may be rented for club meetings, private social events and receptions upon approval of application. For further information regarding tours, schedules of planned events, rentals or memberships, please send inquiries to: The Mississippi County Historical Society, P.O. Box 312, Charleston, MO 63834 or The Chamber of Commerce.
