So, Mary you can see my confusion too when I saw those dates for Nannie matched those of Martha. It is the same in the book as is online. So far, only James Moss I have come up with is James Robert Moss 15 Apr 1882 - 11 Mar 1947 H/O Mattie Moss (no dates) pg 291 Macon Co. II, buried in the Shrum Cemetery/Alvis Graveyard. And with the dates as they are do not think it is the same James Moss we are looking for.

II Book. Does she also have the name of Nancy? I list her as Martha (Nannie) Sloan. Where is James buried? Well, Melba I didn't think Martha and Nancy were the same person? 1870 census Martha was 5yrs (ca 1865) 1880 census no Martha and Nancy B. was 9 yrs. (ca 1871) Perhap's Nancy's age is wrong in 1880? because it appears by that census she was born ca 1871. But I do see the cemetery record online has Nannie Moss 5 May 1862 - 13 Sep 1905 w/o James Moss, which are the dates I had for Martha Sloan?

Melba, I don't know anything about this James Moss but I think the one you found would also be two young. They may be together in 1900 census maybe Macon Co. but I don't have that info. I tried to answer all your questions if I missed any let me know. Mary K. So, Mary you can see my confusion too when I saw those dates for Nannie matched those of Martha.
