Bill, I did a quick check of the 1850 census index (using the soundex). There is no John Mosely there. The 1860 census has only a partial index and Missouri isn't included. The only way to researh 1860 would be to go thru Taney County page by page (a considerable undertaking). Sorry that I couldn't be of more help.

I know he raised his family in Taney County MO. Was wondering if anyone can do a lookup and see if they can find him and his family in Taney County MO in the 1850/1860 census. 1850 John would have been abt. 25 b. IL Parnecie abt. 17 b. MO Probably one child: Joseph L. abt. 2 1860 John abt. 35 Parnecie abt. 27 Johseph abt. 12 Magaret E. Sarah A. William E. and maybe a Parnecie E. Thanks to whoever can help. If you know of the John Moseley family and where they might have been in the 1850 and 1860 census times please let me know.
