Individual Details

Databases concerning Moses online are a mess. I have autosomal DNA matches that go back through Moses and wife Margaret Stout - both claim a son John yet they are certainly not the same person. I have attached both until I have time to try and sort out the mess.

Said to be in Orange Co, NC 1790; Buncombe, NC, 1810; Burke Co, NC in 1820, Wake Co, NC in 1840.

In the early 1800's he moved to Buncombe County, North Carolina, which is now known as Jack's Creek in Yancey County, North Carolina. It is probable that he lived on what is now called Moses Honeycutt Branch (next tributary above Patterson Branch).Moses' granddaughter, Nancy, lived in an ancient log cabin there which may have been his home. Chimney rocks, flowers, and apple trees still remain.
