    Marcellus Moss

    Male 1863 -


    Personal Information    |    PDF

    • Name Marcellus Moss 
      Born 1863 
      Gender Male 
      Notes 
      • Marcellus moss lived with Robert Henry's sister Cornelia Falconia Westbrook and her husband William Stanley Jones. According to Laura B. Grover:

        The child Marcellus was the illegitimate son of my great grandfather, Robert Henry Westbrook. He was not married at the time of the boy’s birth and the Jones family took Marcellus to raise because Cornelia was Robert Henry’s sister. I found documentation to this effect in the probate records of William S. Jones in NC a couple of years ago when I went to the archives to do research. Marcellus apparently only lived with Cornelia and William. I believe his mother was a Morris. There was no bastardy bond required to be filed because the child was not taking money or support from the parish. He eventually married and had children. I looked at his death certificate and it does not give the name of his mother or father. Says unknown in both places.
