Early Moseley Records In a newspaper article written in 1931 by A. Marshall Moseley of Thomaston, GA titled "Moseleys Were Forced to Flee From England for Loyalty to Martyred Monarch", Mr. Moseley attempts to connect Alexander Moseley of Greene County, GA to the Norfolk County, VA family of Moseleys apparently through their descendant Edward Hack Moseley.

He states "Alexander Moseley, born, most probably, at Rolleston (Hall), moved to Georgia with his son, Benjamin Moseley who married Mary Louisa Blount. They had six sons and two daughters; to each they gave 1,200 to 1,500 acres of land and sufficient slaves to run the estates. They settled in different parts of Georgia. However, there are few descendants bearing the name, to my knowledge, who have remained, namely: Benjamine A. Moseley, of Putnam County (my father); A. Sherwood Moseley of Greene County; James Blount Moseley of Baldwin County; a few families in Lowndes County and their children and grandchildren." However, the Alexander Moseley who was a son of Edward Hack and Mary (Bassett) Moseley owned land and was paying taxes in Princess Anne County, VA in 1811 and could not be Alexander Moseley of Greene County, GA who was dead at the time.
