Martha married William R. Gore 1 son of Edwin Gore and Jane Thompson. William was born on 9 Apr 1848 in Field's Prairie, Mason Co., Illinois.

The following is from Biographical Album of Johnson & Pawnee Counties Nebraska:

William R. Gore, Clerk of the District Court of Johnson County, and a prominent resident of Tecumseh, represents a fine property in this locality, having a valuable and attractive home at the southeast corner of Fourth and Sheridan streets, besides a quarter-section of land in Lincoln Precinct. This latter he secured when it was an unimproved tract, and has reduced it to a good state of cultivation, placing thereon the necessary buildings and live stock. He is a gentleman standing among his fellow-citizens, and one considered worthy of the responsibilities which have been placed upon him.

Our subject is the offspring of a good Maryland family, his father, Edwin Gore, having been born in Queen Anne County, that State, in 1816. The latter acquired his education in the common schools, and there remained in his native place until twenty-one years of age. Then, turning his face westward, he took up his residence in Mason County, Ill., and soon thereafter entered 130 acres of land from the Government. To this section of country he had come alone and empty-handed, an orphan and without influential friends, his parents having died when he was but a lad. Providence, however, had given him those attributes which insured his success and made him many friends. He was prospered in his endeavor to open up a farm from the wilderness, and in time added to his first purchase until he became one of the prominent land-holders of the county, opening up a fine and extensive farm, where he carried on agriculture and became the owner of a fine property.

The father of our subject was married in Greene County, Ill., about 1844, to Miss Jane Thompson, and they became the parents of nine children, of whom William R., our subject, was the third in order of birth. Mrs. Jane Gore was born in County Antrim, Ireland, July 5, 1820, and emigrated to America with her parents when. a little child three years of age. Becoming homesick they returned to their native land, and in five years thereafter recrossed the Atlantic once more, and this time settled in Greene County, Ill. Here Mrs. Gore lived until her marriage. Her father, Alexander Thompson, was a farmer by occupation, and his wife in her girlhood was Miss Margaretta Stewart. They continued to make their home in Greene County, Ill., where the mother died when about sixty-five years of age. The father survived his wife many years, his death taking place in 1875, after he had reached the advanced age of ninety-five years. Edwin Gore died in 1860. His wife is still living on the old homestead with one of her sons, John W., the fifth child. The parents were prominently connected with the Methodist Episcopal Church, to which they contributed liberally of their means and their labors, and always took a lively interest in the prosperity of the Master's cause.

William Gore, the paternal grandfather of our subject, and in honor of whom the latter was named, was a resident of Maryland for some time previous to his decease. He carried on farming near Queen Anne, and died when our subject was too young to recollect anything of his history. He was the father of two children only.

The subject of this biography, William R. Gore, was born on Field's Prairie, near Havana, Mason Co., Ill., April 9, 1848. He lived there with his father until the death of the latter, in 1877, and until a man twenty-nine years of age. He had received a practical education, and made farming the business of his life. Upon coming to this county, in the spring of 1877, he purchased 160 acres of land in Lincoln Precinct, improved it, set out in orchard of 200 trees, and a grove of forest trees around the dwelling. He erected a substantial farm house, and later all the out-buildings necessary for the shelter of stock and the storing of grain. He availed himself of the improved machinery of the day to cultivate the soil, and before many years found himself in the enjoyment of a fine income. He has now one of the most beautiful homes in this part of Johnson County.

Mr. Gore was elected to the office which he holds in the fall of 1883, and in the spring following assumed the duties thereof, which he has discharged with great credit. He was re-elected in 1887 by a greatly increased majority, and is now serving his second term. His family consists of a most estimable wife and three bright children, two sons and a daughter--Grace, Roscoe and Harry. Mrs. Martha T. (Hardin) Gore became the wife of our subject Jan. 28, 1877, in Mason County, Ill. She was born there Feb. 10, 1852, and is the daughter of James M. and Martha (Micklam) Hardin, the former a native of Maryland and the latter of Virginia. Mr. Hardin left his native State when a young man twenty years old, emigrating in company with Edwin Gore to Mason County, Ill., and settling on a tract of land adjoining that of Mr. G. There he opened up a good farm, where he still lives with his estimable wife. He was born about 1817, and his wife eight years later, in 1825. Both of them became prominently identified with the Methodist Episcopal Church. The twelve children born to them all lived to mature years.

Mr. Gore meddles very little with political affairs, but usually supports the principles of the Republican party. Socially, he belongs to the I. O. O. F., being a member of the lodge at Tecumseh. In social and business circles he is a man highly spoken of, and contributes his full quota in sustaining the moral and financial welfare of his community.
