I've been stuck on the parents of Moses McCollough, Sr. for quite a while. My main source of info is a thin book left to me by my grandmother Anna Myrtle (McCollough) Bell covering the McCollough side of her family. Here is a sample of information... Moses McCollough Sr born 1794 in NC - died February 28, 1859 in Kingston, AR - married Mary Ellin Freed December 9, 1814 in Greene Co., TN. Mary Ellin (or Ellen) Freed born about 1794 in VA - died 1854 in Newton Co., AR - daughter of John Freed and Regina (Rife) Freed. I never have bee able to track down Moses Sr's parents. I came across some research on Mary Ellen Freed that appears to be the same Mary Ellin Freed that married Moses McCollough Sr. located at http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/b/a/i/Richard-C-Bailey/GENE6-0006.html The interesting thing is that this research lists Mary's husband as Moses Morris Krutsinger who coincidentally was born about 1795 in NC, and married Mary Ellen Freed on December 9, 1814 in Green TN. Does anyone have any information or clues on Moses Morris McCollough, Sr using the surname of Krutsinger at any point in time? I've attempted to contact the submitter but have never received a response back.... Help anyone? Thanks, Roger Comstock
