MOORE, AMBROSE YOEMANS: 1822-1904.

A. Y. Moore came to South Bend, Ind., in 1849 as minister of the Presbyterian Church. As a resident of that city he was intimately acquainted with Schuyler Colfax, who was to become vice-president of the U. S. , and whose biographer he later became.

Dr. Moore left South Bend in 1854 and served as an instructor in Valparaiso College and later as treasurer of Hanover College.
