     Daniel Moseley was born on 27 March 1714 (the Lyman genealogy says 29 March 1714).^1,2,3 He married Ann Abbott, daughter of Abiel Abbott and Abigail Grant, on 20 January 1744.^1,2 He died on 6 March 1777 (or 1778, possibly 1777/78) at age 62.^1,2 He was buried in Westfield, Hampshire Co., Massachusetts.

     In addition to the children listed here, the Abbott genealogy by Lemuel Abijah Abbott names two other daughters of Daniel Moseley and Ann Abbott - Sophia, who married Rev.

Ralph Cushman on 17 October 1820, and a Lucy Moseley born 5 August 1794, who married Charles Whiting in June 1819. Thus, it's clear that Sophia and Lucy were actually daughters of Pliny Moseley and Sophia Pomeroy, and granddaughters (not daughters) of Daniel Moseley and Ann Abbott.^1,2

Ralph Cushman on 17 October 1820, and a Lucy Moseley born 5 August 1794, who married Charles Whiting in June 1819.

     Pliny Moseley was born on 21 June 1750.^2,3 He married first Abigail Chapin, daughter of Joseph Chapin and Martha Wolcott, on 3 January 1783 (Abbott says 8 January 1783, and the Lyman genealogy says 1782).^3,2,4 He married second Sophia Pomeroy on 23 June 1790.^2,3 He died on 20 February 1810 at age 59.³
