Searching for parents of Moses Black, born 1770-1780 in Old Tryon County of
North Carolina. He apparently lived much of his life in Rutherford County,
N.C. The date and place of death/burial as well as date of marriage are
unknown. The USGenWeb Archives list him on the North Carolina militia muster
rolls of the War of 1812 (7th Regiment, Rutherford County, Second Company,
Capt. Abraham Irvin). Some secondary sources within the family indicate the
name of Moses' wife was Patience Condrey. Moses appears in the 1810, 1820 and
1830 Census for Rutherford County. One son was James Black, born Nov. 18,
1812; died July 2, 1897. James is buried at Mt. Moriah Methodist in
present-day Cleveland County NC along with his wife, Jemima Ledford. Moses'
other probable children included Rachel Jane, Rhoda, Polly, plus one other
daughter and one other son of unknown name. Probable sibling: Laban, who
reportedly migrated to Arkansas in the early 1800s. The 1830 Census indicates
both Moses and Patience were born between 1770 and 1780. In a later Census,
James indicates both of his parents were born in North Carolina.

Would appreciate any help or suggestions.
