Note (May 10, 1987): Alvy and Edith Smith met her at the Hargreaves family reunion in Kenedy, TX, in May 1987. I met her at the 1988 Kenedy reunion. She gave me August 26, 1920 as the date of her marriage to Kohn, but the date above is from a printed wedding announcement. They were married in Kohn's home.

     ROSETTA MOORE The Webb and IGI evidence give 26 Jan 1850 as birthdate. The Dundee evidence gives 22 Jan. Two of the three IGI sources gives father's middle initial as H; the other gives A. Webb gives middle name as Henry. She From Webb 1993 evidence:

"Rosetta's grand daughter, Mary Raley Wright, told me that Rosetta was a very tall woman with medium to dark wavy brown hair. She stood and walked very straight and lived in a nice house in the 'College Addition' of Alamogordo, N M. Once when Bob Raley was in jail in Alamo, Lucy took the family to visit with her mother and with her husband in Alamogordo. It took two days to travel the 50 or so miles in a wagon with 7 children. When they arrived at Rosetta's home she offered them some lovely ripe peaches to eat. The Raley family lived on the desert and did not enjoy the fresh fruits and vegetables that urban towns afford so they really relished the juicy peaches. After each child had eaten 2 peaches, their grandmother put all the rest of them away saying that more than that would make them sick. This was true of course, but Mary, about 10 years old thought it was the most cruel thing that a grandmother could do to her grand children whom she saw so seldom.

No one else in the family could tell me anything else about Rosetta. I have a pencil drawing of her and her husband, Will, that is in the NM Historical Records at N M State Univ. at Las Cruces, N M. I do not know if these drawings resemble the real people or not, but they are all I have and my only source.

Rosetta's father, John Henry Moore, must have been a huge man.

Will and Rosetta had 4 children tin Brown County, TX then moved to Kimble County where 4 more children were born then they spent a year or so on the Mimbres River in Grant County, N M where some of Rosetta's relatives lived. After that they moved to the homestead on the Fresnal River near High Rolls, N M in the Sacramento Mountains, little Johnny was born there but he did not survive. My grandmother remembers it as being muddy and very cold in the winter.

Will was known to have spent time in jail for tarring and feathering preachers, several preachers. It caused him to lose his homestead in Kimble County after which he recorded all land in Rosetta's name. Most of this information came from talks with his 3rd child, my grandma Lucy. After Will lost his Kimble Co. place he put all land in Rosetta's name only from then on.

The Gililland homestead on the Fresnal River had to be sold to cover court costs when Jim, oldest son, was tried for murder. We were able to visit and take pictures of this site during the Meyer Reunion in 1989. It has changed hands 13 times since Will and Rosetta homesteaded it. The present owner was very happy to meet us since he was very interested in his land transactions.

NOTE: The 'Allison' listed with this family is male, b Abt 1847, no record of him after the move to TX. Susan and Catherine may be children of a former marriage since John is some 23 years older than Mary.

This family left IL around 1853 [should be 1863 probably?] and walked to TX. They had a wagon pulled by a milk cow with a goat tied to the back. It took 2 years for the trip and they may have lost a child on the way. Census records indicate that they settled in San Saba, Brown County, TX. Living family members have no memories of this family.
