Edward Alfred Livingstone Moore (13 November 1870 – 22 September 1944) was Bishop of Travancore and Cochin from 1925 to 1937.
[4] Moore began his career as a curate in Aston, became a CMS Missionary in southern India, Principal of the society's Divinity School in Madras,[5] and progressed to become Chairman of its Tinnevelly operations until his elevation to the episcopate.
The community school at Ranny was established as early as 1928 where the inmates trained in self-employment schemes.
Although he was a Missionary Bishop, when the poor approached him en masse to convert to Christianity to escape discrimination, he discouraged them.
He deposited the salary due to him into a special fund to support future Bishops.
