    3. Mr. Langley, my people were found in Moseley Hall, Lenoir Co., North Carolina. Grandpa John Stocks married Eliza Slaughter, his brother Great Uncle Jesse Stocks married first a Lady named Zilphy and second Ruby Barber. Ruby was from Johnston Co., North Carolina. Great Uncle Jesse's people settled up around Turkey. Their mother was Elizabeth "Bet, or Bettie" Haddock Stocks. She collected a pension from Cannon Stocks, although there was no record of this marriage. I think I've found her in the census carrying other last names before we find her with Cannon Stocks as a boarder. Even her death certificate has the wrong date. Also, my Aunt Annie Stocks married Nathaniel Lucas, on one of her certificates it has her maiden name as Stotts. I have an Uncle John D. Stocks that is buried in the Pinewood Memorial Park in Greenville. He was born 18 Dec. in Moseley Hall and died 20 April 1985 in Greenville. He was married to Lala Dawson and she is still living there in Greenville. My Grandpa John Stocks was born 1873 in Pitt County, and died 14 Dec. 1934 in LaGrange, North Carolina. I don't see a tie to the names you've shared. Of course, I'd be grateful if you could shed some light since my people never seemed to have kin, except for brothers and sisters. Thank you again, Rena
