                                    Toensing lists William S. Moore as serving from District 3 in 1866.  The Minnesota Legislative Manual, 1866 lists Thomas Cathcart under District 3 in the list of members by district number.  However, he doesn't appear under the List of Representatives with brief biographical data.  William S. Moore appears on that list but not on the first one.
He came to Minnesota in 1858.
