John Taylor More was a man of considerable influence in the Catskill region of the state of New York. He served in several political capacities in the Township of Roxbury, NY and in the State of New York. ==Early life== John Taylor More was born on February 27, 1771 in Rothiemurchus, Inverness Shire, Scotland to John More and Betty Taylor More. When still young his family, consisting of him, his parents, and his brother Robert, moved to the United States. They first settled near Harpersfield, New York, but were driven back out by the Native Americans. They resided in Catskill, New York, for several years. Several years later the family had grown a considerable amount and they decided to try and resettle their claim in Harpersfield in 1786. They ended up trading claims with another man and gained claim to what is now Grand Gorge, New York. After settling their claim, John T.'s father attracted more settlers to the area and within several years the town of Moresville, named after the family and now known as Grand Gorge, was well underway.
