My gg grandfather was Moses GAULT born about 1808 in Pennsylvania. He was
married to Rachel ? He shows up in the 1850 census Wayne Co.OH. and 1860/1870
Hancock Co.Oh. census. He had these children: Jacob (1831), Moses (1833) both
born Pa. Mary 1834, Susanna 1836, Eliza (TODD) 1838, William 1841(Margaret
PENNINGTON), Isaac 1843 (Eliza Jane SHOOP), Daniel (my g grandfather) (Mary
Josephine GOOD), Lydia 1848 (Frederick MYERS). I believe Moses married a 2nd
time to Mary? Daniel had my grandfather, John Wesley GAULT who married Cora
WATKINS. There are 2 other GAULTS in the 1860/70 census Jacob and Abraham I
believe to be Moses's brothers.
