James Moore Sr. (c. 1640 – c. 1706) was an Irish-born military officer and colonial administrator who served as the governor of Carolina from 1700 to 1703. He is best known for leading several invasions of Spanish Florida during Queen Anne's War, including attacks in 1704 and 1706 which wiped out most of the Spanish missions in Florida.[1] He captured and brought back to Carolina as slaves thousands of Apalachee.
