What we still don't know
- Where in Ireland, when he came out, what he did, and when he died. Every record naming him is a record about his daughter.
- If the 1905 state census household is his family's, he was dead by then, since his wife heads it. That rests on an identification that is probable and not proved.
- [CANDIDATE REJECTED] An 1880 census Stephen Moore — 35, born Ireland, a labourer in New York City, wife Susan, children George, Sarah, Erastus, Margaret and Bertha — fits on both parents' names and origins but has Sarah aged **8** where ours would have been **one**. See Sarah's page.
- [CONTROLLED NEGATIVE] With the surname corrected to Dugan, two searches that could not be run before were run and both came back empty: no marriage of a Stephen Moore to a Dugan anywhere in New York, and no child of any Moore–Dugan couple born 1865–1890 outside Ireland and Pennsylvania. Every record naming this couple is still a record about their daughter Sarah.
