    65  James Washington BLAKE b.c. 1836 Lowndes Co.
7  Sarah (Sallie) BLAKE b.c. 1805 Elbert Co., GA, d. 1850-1860 Bibb  
   Co., AL, m. 5 Aug 1823 Bibb Co., AL, Robert HENDERSON b.c. 1799 TN.   
   They were both listed in John's estate papers.  Robert and his  
   family are listed in the 1840 and 1850 Census of  Bibb Co.  Gandrud,  
   V. 178, p. 78, of Marr. Records of Bibb Co., 1839-45, p. 74, gives  
   John MOSELEY m. to Elender HENDERSON, lic. issued 18 Jun 1844, m. 19  
   Jun 1844 by Rev. L. J. Schenler, local elder of M. E. Church,  
   concent of Robert Henderson (X) for his daughter.  It is probable  
   that we will never know the names of any of his children born  
   between 1824 and 1832 (if any) as they are not listed with him in  
   the 1850 Census.  A Bible would have the names.
    71  Eleanor (Elender) HENDERSON b.c. 1826 Bibb Co., m. 19 Jun 1844  
        Bibb Co., John MOSELEY b.c. 1824 AL.  He was a farmer and was  
        listed in the 1850 and 1860 Census of Bibb Co.  He enlisted 15  
        Apr 1862 and was a Pvt. in Co. H, 44th AL Inf. Regt.  He was  
        wounded 19 Sep 1863 in the Battle of Chicamauga and died 15 Oct  
        1863 in Gate City Hospital in Atlanta.  It is not known what  
        happened to Eleanor but she also may have died during or  
        shortly after the Civil War.  There was a tradition is both the  
        Johnson and Moseley families that they were cousins but it was  
        from long enough ago that both families had forgotten how.  I  
        found the BLAKE-HENDERSON-MOSELEY connection while looking for  
        grandchildren of John BLAKE Sr.  If I were only looking for the  
        Johnsons I would not have found them as they were not Johnson  
        descendants.
       711  Joab B. MOSLEY b. 17 Apr 1845 Bibb Co., AL, d. 14 Feb 1920  
            Waco., McLennan Co., TX, m. 10 Dec 1868 Leah C. BANGLE  b.  
            19 Sep 1846 NC, d. 24 Apr 1925 Waco, dau. of John and Mary  
            Ann (MILLER) BANGLE.  He moved to Calhoun Co., MS.  Later  
            they moved to the Dallas-Waco area of TX.  
       712  Sarah J. MOSLEY b. 1846 Bibb Co.  She is in the 1850 Census  
            but not the 1860.  Probably decd.
       713  William Albert MOSLEY b. 9 Jun 1849 Bibb Co., d. 28 May  
            1935 Calhoun Co., m(1) 2 Oct 1873 Sarah L. McSPADDEN.   
            Sarah L. McSpadden was received into Schultz Creek by  
            experience in Nov 1869.  This branch of the family spells  
            the name MOSLEY
           7131  Hattie MOSLEY b. 1874 MS, m. ______ POTTS.  Moved to  
                 Bienville Par., LA
       713  William Albert MOSLEY m(2) 26 Nov 1876 Hester Ann CLARK b.  
            9 Apr 1851, d. 26 Sep 1927 both bur. Providence Cem.,  
            Calhoun Co.  The 1900 census says she had 6 children, 4  
            still living.  The two not living could be Mattie and a  
            first dau. named Bammie who was in the 1880 census.  This  
            census says the one living in 1900 is age 18 b. Feb 1882.   
            This says she is not the one in the 1880 census.  Later  
            generations may not know that there were two of the same  
            name?  The b. date of Mattie as Aug 1882 also needs further  
            research.  This is too close to the Feb 1882 b. date of  
            Bamma.  She d. in 1885 and there is a possible engraver's  
            error and should be 1883?   This is the only way I can see  
            to explain TWO dead children.  His son Hosea said his  
            middle name was Alexander.  His descendant, Dennis R.  
            Baker, says his research says the name was Albert.    
            Hosea's first name was Albert.  Possibly Hosea just forgot.
            7132  Bammie MOSLEY b. 1879 Calhoun Co., d. bef. 1882, as  
                  another girl is shown in the 1900 Census of the  
                  same name as b. Feb 1882, age 18
            7133  Bama Adella MOSLEY b. 28 Jan 1882 Providence, Calhoun  
                  Co., d. 21 Feb 1964, m. 18 Aug 1904 James Canada  
                  EDWARDS b. 15 Apr 1861, d. 8 May 1946 Providence.   
                  Both bur. Providence Cem.
              7134  Mattie E. MOSLEY b. 12 Aug 1882 Providence, d. 16  
                    Oct 1885 Providence, bur. Providence Cem.  [Could  
                    there be an engraver's error and she was b. 1883?   
                    See discussion above.]
              7135  Earnest Louis MOSLEY b. 5 May 1884 Lafayette Co.,  
                    MS, d. 10 Dec 1960 Calhoun Co., MS, m. 28 Dec       
                    Mary Erma REEVES b. 3 Jun 1910 Lafayette Co., d. 11

              7137  Albert Hosea MOSLEY b. 10 Sep 1890 MS, m. 15 Sep  
                    1935 MS, Idell WRIGHT.  Hosea was 93 when I  
                    visited him in Jul 1984.  Much of the later Mosley  
                    information came from him.  The Social Security  
                    Death Index gives his birth date as 10 Dec 1890 and  
                    death date as May 1985.

   76  Thomas HENDERSON b. 1846 Bibb Co.  Hosea Mosley told me that  
       when he was a small boy, his father took him to see Thomas who  
       had recently come from Bibb Co.  A man came to the Mosley farm  
       and told his father that his uncle Thomas Henderson was near by  
       and so they went to visit him.  That was in the 1890s.  Hosea  
       was aged 93 when I visited him in July 1984.

    Lowndes Co., MS, m.  8 Jul 1830 Bibb Co., AL, Harriett Elizabeth  
    McMin POTTS b.c. 1810 NC, daughter of Jonathan POTTS of Bibb Co.
    Not much is known about this Asa.  He left Bibb Co. about 1839 and  
    appeared in the 1840 census of Lowndes Co., MS.  He was listed in  
    his father's estate records in 1837.  His daughter Catherine was b.  
    in AL in 1839, most likely in Bibb Co.  In 1847, an administrator  
    was appointed in Lowndes Co. for his estate.  In Bibb Co., his  
    brother Archibald Blake was appointed but withdrew when he found  
    that an administrator had been qualified in Lowndes Co., MS.

   G., consent given by her father, Henry YOUNGBLOOD, Marr. Book 1827- 
   1834, pg. 230.  He was one of the persons bonded to guarentee the  
   carrying out of his father's wishes in the 1837 estate settlement.   
   He was in the 1840 Census of Bibb Co., but by 1849 has moved over to  
   Lowndes Co., MS, where his brother Asa had lived.  He was not there  
   in 1860 and I have not located him in that census.

   Martha Ann YOUNGBLOOD.  Bibb Co. Marr. Book D, pg. 145.  
   Not much is known about him.  He was the administrator of the estate  
   of his father and directed by his father to take care of his mother  
   "for the rest of her life" and for this he was to receive all the  
   assets of the estate of his father.  The estate was probated in  
   1837.  No female of advanced age was listed in his census record in  
   1840 and was probably dead by that time.
