My notes on Moses state: Died during the Civil War. See Larkin Hubbard?s diary for more information on this. According to what I have in the diary it could have been Missouri or even Tennessee where Moses died, but coping word to word what was sent me as the actual transcription. ----Camp London Ky Deaths of Co I 7 Ky In Vol Gorden Gamberl 1 Thomas Dowlen 2 Johnson Mays 3 Samuel Patterson 4 Samuel Son 5 Isaac Goins 6 Camp fourd KY Benjamin allsop 7 Point Plesant, Charleston Virginia Wm Love 8 St Louis Mo and memphis tenn Moses Messer 9 James Botner 10 Jessee Parker 11 Isaac Jones 12 Leavi fredrick 13 Milagins B tenn Paskel briant 14 St Louis Mo Johnathan Davis 25 Memphis tenn Aug Bery Ramsy Died 26 I don't think that the family followed Moses into Missouri then. However, it is also known that many of the family and their connections did end up in Ray County, Missouri. figures now that I move away from Illinois we find a Messer connection there. Go figure. :-) Cassy.
