The Belcher Families in New England by Joseph Bartlett was published in 1906 and contains information about this family. Moses is listed on page 9. It states, "Dea. Moses Belcher, born Aug. 14, 1672, purchased a farm in Milton, where he resided until 1720, when he moved to Preston, Conn., where he died May 4, 1728. He and his wife were admitted to the Milton Church, Jan. 19, 1695-6, and dismissed to the second Preston Church, Nov. 13, 1720, where he was elected one of the first deacons. In 1721, he represented Preston in the Connecticut General Assembly. On Sept. 12, 1729, Hannah Belcher, widow, William Belcher, Elijah Belcher, Stephen Tucker and Hannah his wife, all of Preston, Conn., and Ebenezer Clapp and Abigail his wife, of Stoughton, conveyed their interest in the land grant of George Lyon. (Suffolk Co. Deeds, vol. 49, page 171).

He married, In Milton, MA., Dec. 19, 1694, Hannah, born Nov. 14, 1673, daughter of George and Hannah (Tolman) Lyon of Milton, who died Aug. 20, 1745, in Preston.

There are also 10 birth records for children of this couple in Milton vital records. It looks like all of his children were born before he moved to Connecticut.
