The first settlement at Moor was made in 1869.[2] Variant names were "Moor Siding", "Moores", and "Moors".[1] The community was named after a railroad employee.[3] In 1941, Moor had 17 inhabitants.[2] Other than some remnants of building foundations and aged debris, little remains of the town today.
