I am really trying to get s! ome information on ELijah's father, Moses, who I know passed away in Wash/Benton Co. area in 1846...He was a founding member of the Primitive Baptist Church in SHiloh, but cant find out where he came from in Indiana, exactly. I know that he and his son Elijah obtained land in the Wash/Bent area in/around 1838, soon after the county was established...if anyone can help me in that arena, I would be really happy....have a great day :) Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
