Bio Brief (detailed timeline and sourcing at the end):
Moses Foley was born in Frederick County, Virginia between 1740 and 1742.
1769–1770: Marriage: Elizabeth GREEN; Virginia, USA
In abt. 1769, Moses Foley "married Elizabeth, daughter of Mr. Green and wife Elizabeth" in Virginia.
Moses Foley's will was written on October 25, 1823 in Knox County, Kentucky and may have been probated in June 1924.
Moses Foley, Sr. is believed to be buried in Cumberland River Baptist Church Cemetery, Barbourville, Knox County, Kentucky.
Cumberland River Baptist Church Cemetery was flooded when the flood wall was built.

NOTE: Moses is NOT the son of James and Mary Foley of Fauquier County, VA:
Some believe that James Foley (c.1715 to abt.1798) of VA and Mary Young are the parents of Moses Foley, Sr. However, Moses is NOT named in the James Foley's Will which was written on 14 Oct 1793 and proven on 14 Oct 1797 in Fauquier County, VA.
The children mentioned in James Foley's will are Susanna Foley Oglivie, Presly Foley Oglivie, Leah Foley Oglivie, Lettice Foley and Molley Foley by his current wife Elizabeth; and Enoch, John, James, Thomas, William, Bryant, and Sarah Watts presumably by his first wife.

According to DAR, Moses Foley (Ancestor# A200328) was born circa 1750 and died Ante 6--1824.
Moses served in the Montgomery County, Virginia Militia under Capt Edward.
{Service Source: Kegley, Mil of Montgomery Co. 1777-1790, p 14}.

24 Mar 1781: Military: Montgomery County, Virginia, USA
On 24 Mar 1781 Moses was listed in VA Militia, from Montgomery County, as one between the age of 16 and 20 serving in Captain Frederick Edwards Company.
Note: Tradition indicates that Moses was wounded in service and was lame as a result.

On page 268 of "Knox County Kentucky History", by Elmer Decker, Moses Foley is listed as a Revolutionary War Soldier from North Carolina.

In Grayson County, Virginia, Reverend Moses Foley participated in the first court held in that county on May 21, 1793 and on June 10, 1793 he was "admitted to solemnise the rights of matrimony, agreeable to the rules of his church, so soon as he shall enter into bond according to law."
http://www.newrivernotes.com/va/nuckolls1.htm

Rev. Moses Foley, Sr. "was pastor of North Fork of Holstein and Rich Valley churches in Washington County, Virginia in 1794". In 1802, Moses Foley, along with 26 others, constituted a new church at Abrahams Creek.
Moses was also the first pastor of Concord Church in Flat Lick, Knox County, Kentucky in 1804. Moses was involved in it's founding.

8) Spencer Foley (1785 VA – 1850 KY)
9) Mariam Foley Allison (1787 VA- 1861 MO)
10) Rachel Foley Lay (1789 VA – 1879 TN)
11) Leah Foley Clare (1789 VA – 1861 MO)
12) Winifred Foley McKenny (1792 VA- KY)

The widowed Moses Foley married Rachel Watson (1785 VA - ?) in 1807 in Virginia. Moses and Rachel had 2 sons together.
13) Martin C Foley (1808 KY – 1894 KY)
14) Hugh Foley (1813 KY – 1894 KY)

The widowed Rachel Foley was listed in the 1850 Census as 81 years of age and living in the household of her son Martin Foley. This Census page was dated 11 Sept 1850 so Rachel most likely died sometime after 11 Sept 1850.

Moses Foley (107690530)
I have personally seen Moses Foley Sr's grave site in 2012. He is buried behind the old First Baptist Church at Crab Orchard, Lincoln County, Kentucky. (Burial information provided by: Lillie Robbins).
The aforementioned statement is in dispute as Larry & Linda Davis Singleton state that they have visited the Crab Orchard Baptist Church Cemetery in Crab Orchard, Lincoln County, Kentucky, USA and Moses Foley Sr. headstone is not found there. It is likely that only Moses Foley Jr. is buried at Crab Orchard.
It would seem more likely that Moses Foley Sr. would have been buried in Knox County, Kentucky where he apparently spent his last years as a Pastor of a Cumberland River Baptist Church and where his Will was recorded.
The note regarding the History of the Cemetery reads as follows: "The First Baptist Church, Barbourville, originally named Cumberland River Baptist Church, was constituted on May 12, 1804. The site is believed to of been "in the narrows" on the north side of the Cumberland River, close to where Walker State Park is now located, it no longer exists." By BluMoKitty
