This person 'may' be a direct ancestor for my son on his paternal side but on Ancestry she is showing as married to Danel Kinard.

On Daniel's Find-a-Grave page she is mentioned as Moseley, which is one of the several ways her name shows:

https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/74151530/daniel-kinard

Ancestry ThruLines is showing DNA matches to her as Daniels' wife and them as the father of:

John Kinard

who isn't connected to any parents on Geni because until this began showing up in ThruLines, his parentage has been a brick wall.

Among those showing these connections are:

Shipp-Swindler-Crochet-Crumholt-Street-Duvall-Evans-Dugas
Owner: Lindsey Swindler

John Kinard / Kynard
DEATH: 20 Oct 1872
Hallman, Bibb County, Alabama, USA

Family Info:

Mother: Moseley Price Rentz (1773–1817)

Spouse: Ephia / Arimy / Eva Kinard (Wires / Wyers), notes* (1810–1858)

Aramita (1846–1905)
William (1849–)

Any help regarding this profile being the same as Moseley Price Rentz (1773–1817), wife of Daniel Kinard would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I just discovered this profile for Daniel Kinard:

Daniel Kinard, Sr.

and he has a wife of Mosely Kinard (Price) connected. I've seen on Ancestry where Mosely Price and the aforementioned Mosley (etc) Rentz are merged into one person as Mosely Rentz (Price) Kinard.

I don't know what is correct and what might just be same-name confusion, although Mosley (etc) Kinard is not a common name to come across.

Additionally, the above Daniel Kinard is shown as the father of a Graham Kinard. So all the same names are connecting to these two families. I feel confident they're all related, if we can just get their connections sorted out.

For all I can tell, this Graham Kinard:

Graham Kinard

may be identical to this one

Graham Kinard

and perhaps he just has the wrong wife's name attached to him if Mosely is, indeed, actually his mother rather than his wife.

Wiki definitely shows her married to Daniel, not Graham:

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Rentz-80

Molcey "Mollie" Kinard formerly Rentz

Born about 1770 in Barnwell, Province of South Carolina

Daughter of Simon Rentz and Mary (Swann) Rentz

Wife of Daniel Kinard Sr.

Mother of George A Kinard and Graham Kinard

Died about 1825 in Montgomery County, Georgia, USA

---------------

All their children aren't listed, but it does show her as the mother of Graham Kinard, not his wife.
