H. Mobley. I also checked the Bedford County tax records for 1812 and 1836 with no luck. The closest surname that is in Bedford County is MOSELEY - but even with that, a first glance does not reveal an "Isiah". For 1810, I do not find any listings in TN for Mobley or Moberly. For 1820 Bedford County Census, there are no listings for "Mobley", only "MOSELEY, Caleb" and "MOSELY, James". I did find the following listings: Mobley, Edward, Davidson County, TN Mobly, Allen, Lincoln County, TN Mobley, Susan, Maury County, TN For 1830 Census, I don't find any "Mobley" listings in Bedford County, but did find: Mobly, Rachel, Sullivan County, TN Mobley, Allen, Stewart County, TN Mobley, Archibald, Sevier County, TN Mobly, Edward, Maury County, TN Mobley, Edward, Davidson County, TN Mobly, Robert, Lincoln County, TN Mobly, Zachariah, Giles County, TN Mobly, Jane, Giles County, TN Mobly, Ransone, Giles County, TN Moberley, Rebecca, Jefferson County, TN Good luck with your continued search, Kathryn
