This is a terrific site, it brings back memories of my trip to Barkhamstead
over 10 years ago to search for info on my ancestor Ashbel Moses. We had the
pleasure of driving into the cemetary at Hartland to discover his grave and the
grave of his father, Abel Moses. Ashbel was born 1758 in Hartland, Conn, to Abel. He served in the Revolutionary War He married Esther Truman on October 24,
1786 in Simsbury, Conn. I descend from his son Ashbel Jr.and Sally Hughes who
were killed in Georgetown, Dist of Columbia in 1829. Their daughter, Eliza Moses
and her husband Thomas Joslin left Conn to settle in Wisconsin. I would love to
share info with others researching the Moses, Truman, Hughes and other
collateral lines! Peg Oberbeck poberbeck@mindspring.com 6707 Maple Ter
