Between 1800 and 1810 (family) leased no 11, and 10 Great Knightrider Street from the Dean and Chapter of St Pauls. Afterwards he bought the two houses for £310 and £320, according to his grandson, AWD Moore in newpaper quote of 1939.
In 1828 (the year he married, aged 23, and his father died) he built on this site the house, 23 Knightrider Street, Doctors Commons. His family lived on the upper floors and the business was run from the ground floor. He died of chest troubles (TB?), aged 44 and a son (in-law Currey?) took over business (his sons would have been too young). William took over when he was 21, seven years later, Philip C. Moore.

Notes from Chris Atherton (treacle):
3rd daughter Unmarried "Lizzie" lived at "Oakfield," Eltham, Kent.
died as infant (TB?)
died age 16 from pleurisy (TB?) Nursed by her Aunt Emma Carolinedied at the age of sixteen. She had pleurisy and may wellhave been another TB fatality.
Wed M's "Great Aunt Annie" - "a keen family historian" - kept family papers. My namesake. Youngest daughter of Phillip, was only 9 when he died. Her other sisters were over 8 years older than her so it probably was considered her 'duty' to stay and look after her mother and brothers. Unmarried she kept house for William and after his death in 1910, James, at "Oakfield" Eltham, where she and sister, Elizabreth, lived most of their life. She had a maid called Jane Windsor to help her who also lived most of her life and died at "Oakfield" also Butler William. " Anne Charlotte, like her sister Lizzy, remained unmarried and spent most of her life at Oakfield where she kept house forWilliam and James. She was supported by her faithful maid, Jane Windsor who also lived and died at Oakfield."

WEDMaccidently broke the egg. he collected coins which WEDM now has.He had a loud voice and was rather frightnening too his smallgrand nephews and grandnieces. In his sittingroom he had amodel of a chimney stack with a patent system that he hadinvented to stop it smoking. In the window was a prism thatrevolved on a string and flashed coloured lights on the walls.cont "James Philip. As children I think we found Uncle Jamesdifficult to understand . His behaviour was sometimes unusualand he was certainly considered an eccentric in the eyes ofmany adults. As a batchelor he made the most of his life . Hewas an architect by profession and probably a good one. Therewas a story that he helped with the construction of StThomas's Hospital. While working on the roof he chanced tolook through a skylight . He was sickened to see a patientundergoing an abdominal operation and he all but fell thoughthe glass..(Some say he did fall through). In his sitting-roomat Oakfield he had a model of a chimney stack with a specialsystem, that he had invented, to stop it smoking.. He kept adetailed diary of all his activities which are said to be veryboring to read and went into many volumes.. They were alsodifficult to store and consequently eventualy destroyed. Theydescribed his numerous journeys thoughout the world whichincluded Europe, Africa and New Zealand. He may also have goneto America , Canada and Jamaica. While in Norway he lost hisring when on a trip to the North Cape. Several years laterhe returned to the same spot and found the ring to be stillthere. He had a good collectiom of Magic Lantern slides. Thoseof New Zealand that I remember seemed to be mostly ofmagnificant ferns. " wedmoore
