Surnames: Woodard/Woodward Harrison Williams Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/xhC.2ACE/671.1.2.1 Message Board Post: I have a listing in the 1850 Clarke County, AL census which shows a boy named Burton or Benton Moseley, age 3, with parents and siblings. This child was the son of Robert Mosely and Martha (Robinson?) Mosely. They had the following children per the 1850 census: William born about 1840 Daniel born about 1842 Sarah born about 1843 John born about 1845 Benton or Burton born about 1847 Andrew Jackson born about 1848 I know that Daniel Moseley enlisted with Co. A, 5th Alabama Infantry, known as the Grove Hill Guards in April of 1861. My husband's g-g-grandfather served in that unit as did some of his brothers. One brother married Sarah Moseley of this family. The other brother, Andrew Jackson Moseley, married my husband's great-grandmother's sister. If this is your family, you might want to email Warren Forsythe who has a huge amount of data on many Moseley families. His email is genealogy171@elltel.net He has 2 databases of the Moseley family posted on World Connect and may have some info on Robert and Martha Moseley. I show that Robert Moseley was 36 years old according to the 1850 census while Martha was aged 29. Robert was born in SC and was a farmer with $400 of real estate. Martha and all children were born in AL. Hope this helps you! Sincerely, Jackie Feldman

Jackie, What is your source for the info. on the enlistment of Daniel MOSELEY in the Grove Hill Guards of the 5th Alabama Infantry? I am working on a history of that unit and don't find his name in the Compiled Service Records. Can you provide details on the other men of the 5th Alabama that you mentioned? Thank you, Miles Krisman By the way, I do have the Warren Forsythe books if anyone needs a MOSELEY look-up. :) ----- Original Message ----- From: <jackiefeld@aol.com> To: <AL-CIVIL-WAR-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, February 28, 2003 11:36 AM Subject: [AL-Civil-War] Re: Capt.
