Notes:

Information about ancestors of James Livingston Moss was taken from a copy of a letter from L.F. Gordon of Wildersville, TN, to Mrs. Malone J. Everett of St. Elmo, TN. The letter is dated May 13, 1923. The letter says in part:

Madam:-

Received your letter some time ago, and would have answered sooner, but I have been studying and gathering all the information I could get in regard to your people.

Your great-grandfather, Wesley Gordon married Wm. Morgan's sister. Wm. Morgan had two brothers, Thee* & John Morgan. Wesley Gordon's children were as follows: one boy, George, who married Isabella Gooch, then Elizabeth, who married Rufus Gooch, Sarah, who married Willis Moore, Pocahontas, who died when about grown, Ann, who married James Moss, Eliza, who married Bob Rutherford. Taylor (a daughter) was James Moss' second wife. Babe married Willis Moore (She was his second wife). Wesley Gordon had about twenty slaves, Lewis & wife; their children were named, Jackson, Calvin, Will, Joe Lew Martha,** Gene, and Dosch. Frank & wife & their children (I have forgotten their names). Ishman & wife & children. ( I don't remember their names either.

Your great grandfather, Wesley Gordon, owned about six or seven hundred acres of land, but none of it was very valuable.

Your great grandfather, James Moss, married Charity Hester. His oldest sister married Green Morgan, son of Wm. Morgan (Your great uncle). Another sister, Louise, married Levi Walker. Rebecca never married.

Your grandfather, James Moss, married Ann Gordon the first time and Taylor (Ann's sister) the second time. Your grandfather's brother, William, married A Allen.***

Your grandfather Moss' negroes were as follows: John, Adline & her children, Millie & children, Verdina, Emily & children, and Mitchell.

These negroes belonged to James, William, and Rebecca Moss. All together (there were) about 25 I guess.

Respectfully,
L. F. Gordon

P.S. Your grandfather Moss was in the cavalry during the Civil War. His Captain was J.C. Gooch. His Colonel was Colonel Wilson of Miss., known best by "Old Red". He was in Gen. Forrest's cavalry.

Your great uncle, George Gordon, was killed at Brices' Cross Roads in Mississippi.

* His use of Thee is confusing. The previous sentence said "two brothers". The letter is addressed to a female. Did he intend to say "two children"? If so, the use of "Thee" makes sense.

** Is Joe Lew Martha one person or should there be commas between Joe & Lew & Martha? Since the letter doesn't say how many children Frank & his wife had, or how many children Ishman & his wife had it makes it difficult to count the number to decide.

*** The copy of the letter is typed (probably transcribed from a handwritten original). All letters in the typed copy are upper case so I don't know if the "A" in front of Allen is a first initial or if Mr. Gordon was saying that William married an Allen.

James married Lucy Rebeccah DeLoach on 23 Dec 1888 in Solemnized By J. South Smith, , , Jp. Lucy (daughter of John T. DeLoach and Catherine Emma "Katie" Dickie) was born on 30 Apr 1872 in Jackson County, , , Tennessee; died on 17 Apr 1956 in Memphis, , , Tennessee. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
