There is a huge amount of genealogy for his wife's family all the way to her grandfather's slave holder. Moses I didn't find anything except this. There are no trees for him except the one I made. Some have him as Annie's husband but no other information. The 1910 census shows she is divorced and moved back to Alabama where she was from.
