Henrietta G. Moore (1844–1940) was an American Universalist minister and educator, active in the temperance,[1] and suffrage causes. For a number of years, she was engaged in educational work, and then took up the temperance crusade movement. She was one of the most successful of the many lecturers brought out by the temperance reform movement,[2] organizing throughout the U.S. and Canada. In 1891, she was regularly ordained a minister of the Universalist church by the Ohio universalist convention in Columbus, becoming one of the most widely known of the women preachers in the U.S.[3] She was prominently identified with the Prohibition Party.[4]
