I have a brick-wall problem.
Isaac Moss was born April 29, 1826, in OH -- not sure where but possibly in
or around Preble Co., OH.
Reportedly, his mother was a Mary Fouts whose lover, poss. ano. Isaac Moss,
skipped off to Texas when he heard abt. his impending fatherhood. Family
story is that Isaac the younger was named for his father.
Isaac, with or w/o his mom and her family, at some point removed to Blue
River Twp., Henry Co., IN, where he married Anna Deardorff in 1853. Later,
they lived and died in Howard Co., IN.
The Deardorffs removed fr. Preble Co., OH, to Blue River Twp., Henry Co.,
IN, betw. 1827 and 1830. This offers a slight suggestion that sev. families,
incl. the Fouts family, may have moved to IN together.
So -- does anyone have any OH or IN Fouts families in or around either of
these two places? Or a Mary Fouts with a small child at the requisite
times??? Or a Moss family in the area?
Any help w/b immensely appreciated.
Best, BarBara
