Notes:

He registered for the military in 1863 in Illinois, but apparently did not serve. In 1870 he was a laborer, then 1880 he was a railroad carpenter. After he moved back to Tennessee, he did some farming.

Letters both written by and quoted from some of the Stone family give a few more clues in to Oliver's life. They mention a daughter Cate who does not show up in the records and she is only known of because Cicero Stone mentioned in a letter in 1932 those who had died since a previous letter he had written in 1877, and listed Cate.
She is not listed in her father's household in 1870 or 1880 census. Was she first born or last born? If first born, maybe married young? But more likely born last. Elizabeth was dead by 1880. Could she have died in childbirth? She was getting at a critical age for childbearing. Oliver, widowed by 1880 census, still living in Illinois. Nellie and John and Ann are there - no Cate. Ann marries soon after, September of that same year.
In the letter in 1882, Cicero mentions that Moyers is living by him farming. It is also told that Nellie died of consumption at Uncle Anderson's home in January of 1882, that John, her brother, had come to be with her while she was sick, and she died the day after he left.
So, it's very clear that Oliver moved back to Tennessee with Nelly and apparently Cate after Elizabeth died, probably shortly after the census was taken or in the following year. His other children were establishing their own lives. John and Ann stayed in Illinois. He seemed to have no other family in Illinois and it's not hard to imagine the need of the comfort of his wife's family and their support to raise Cate was his motivation to move back to Tennessee.
Back to Cate, she must have grown up there in a close family relationship with Cicero for him to remember her specifically. He made a collective comment about several cousins had died, but then called her by name.
Then we learn from the letters that Enoch Herschel Stone named his son after him, Oliver Myers Stone, as it's said, ""our Uncle Moyers was named after Nelly's father." Oliver Stone was born in 1858. Oliver Moyers was Herschel's brother-in-law, married to his sister Elizabeth C. in about 1853.
In 1860, the families were all living in their own community in Putnam County (probably the same land, just changing county borders.) You'll see in residence enumerated as No. 773 Enoch Herschel Stone with his family and adjacent to him in Residence 774 is his widowed mother, Elizabeth (William) Stone with a couple of her adult children, Elihu Patton and Fanny. Then Oliver Hopkins Moyers and Elizabeth C are nearby in the residence numbered 781 where my great grandfather, shown as Christopher H, in the census is only 6 years old. Somehow that name evolved into Harold Charles.
Much gratitude to the Stone family for their letters and to Floyd Weatherbee who posted them to the Internet. They brought a lot of life to my great-great grandparents, Oliver and Elizabeth Stone Moyer.

(these letters are in a pdf file attached to Oliver and all the many other names of three or more generations mentioned in the letters.)

Letter written in 1963 by Enoch, son of Cicero, to cousin Alene, wherein he quoted from this letter, written by Enoch Herschel to his brother Elihu.

(dated Apr 9, 1882 from White Co, Tenn)
Quote: "Cicero [Cicero Constantine Stone] still lives at Bloomington and Vick [Lenora Vick Stone] lives with him. Newton [Isaac Newton Stone] is there going to school. Herschel [Elihu Herschel Stone] is still living at his Uncle Geo. Anderson's [George W. Anderson, hus of Phama]. Aut is now at home. Moyers lives close to me and farming. Cleopatrae & Omega, Euclid & Mary
are all at home growing finely. Minerva has only had
two children. Mary is the youngest will be 7 years
old the last day of July."

This old letter was headed White Co. Tenn. and dated
April 9, 1882.

Now quoting a little further from the same old letter,
Quote: "I suppose Phama, wrote you about the death
of Nelly Moyers, she died last January at her Uncle
Geo. Anderson's with consumption. John her brother
came to see her while she was sick, and I think she
died the next day after he left."
(see attached letter)


Other-Begin:
Letter written by Enoch Garnet Stone, son of Cicero, in 1963 to his cousin, Alene. In it he quotes from a letter that had been dated 9 Apr 1882, written by Enoch Herschel, his grandfather, to Enoch Herschel's brother Elihu.

Quoted from Enoch Herschel's letter of 1882, "Moyers [Oliver Hopkins Moyers, husb of Elizabeth C. Stone (d bef 1880)] lives close to me and farming."

Then Enoch Garnet continues, "Now quoting a little further from the same old letter,
Quote: "I suppose Phama [Phama Lovina Stone], wrote you about the death of Nelly Moyers, she died last January at her Uncle Geo. Anderson's with consumption. John her brother
came to see her while she was sick, and I think she died the next day after he left."

I quote the above to show you that Uncle Moyers was named for Nelly's father, who I am quite sure married Elizabeth, who was grandfather's sister, i.e., I know he had a sister, Elizabeth, and am quite sure she married Mr. Moyers. He is the one who lived in Nashville,and Ridley Stone was my brother who lived there for many years until he moved to California."

I quote the above to show you that Uncle Moyers was named for Nelly's father, who I am quite sure married Elizabeth, who was grandfather's sister, i.e., I know he had a sister, Elizabeth, and am quite sure she married Mr. Moyers. He is the one who lived in Nashville.
(see attached)

named for Nelly's father (Oliver);
that would be Oliver M Stone, son of Enoch Herschel Stone.
married Elizabeth "grandfather's sister"

Oliver* married Elizabeth* C. Stone about 1853 in Tennessee. Elizabeth* (daughter of Rev Thomas* Stone, (DNA) match 7A and Elizabeth* Williams, (dau?) (DNA)) was born in 1833 in Jackson Co, Tennessee; died between 1877 and 1880 in Illinois. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

James Napoleon MYERS, my ggg grandfather, a minister of the Holly Springs Primitive Baptist Church, now called Little Cove Baptist Church in Sevier CO., TN was m. to Margaret Caroline LINDSEY in the Little Cove area of Sevier Co., TN. Though they migrated ca1860 to Cocke Co., TN they return 10 yrs later back to Sevier where James was found on his son Andrew Jackson "Big Andy" MYERS land, lying at the creek dead of an apparent heart attack though it's still unclear.

It's also unclear who his parents were though I hope to find out someday, it is believed he was an orphan with a brother and sister born in Maryville, TN and 1st cousin to the MOYERS/BLACKBURN/WILLOUGHBY families of Jefferson Co., TN.
(Comment: James David Moyers (1767-1838 & Mary Polly Blackburn 1768-1846

Jame Napoleon b 1839.

James and Margaret had 11 children and though many moved around the country, there are still many ancestor's living still in the Sevier and surrounding counties of TN, to this day.

What once was an "unmarked grave" is now marked. Margaret Caroline LINDSEY is buried in the HURST CHAPEL CEMETERY in Sevier Co., TN where her 3rd husband Evan HURST is buried and was minister.

Notes:

Every now and then a soul from the past seems to just jump off the census pages and become a living, breathing person; such is the case of Terressa Moyers. She was a sister to my grandfather, 18 years his junior.
In June of 1860, she was 19 years old, still living at home with her parents and what few siblings were still home. A nearby neighbor was the Dugger family, and in particular a son Wylie, who was 22. It's possible they were courting at that time, and enjoying youth and budding romance. Sometime probably soon after that census was taken, they married and started their own home. It is said that her mother died at Terressa's home in 1860; so she was clearly a newlywed when she lost her mother. By January of '61, she conceived; but only a month before the blessed time for her delivery, her husband enlisted for the war along with his father and his brother Harding; leaving Theresa with family and friends to bring their baby into a war torn world. She named her baby Violet, perhaps for the fresh beauty of the flower, maybe even her favorite.
Sadly, by the end of 1862, Wiley came down with disease and died on Christmas Day. His father Henry was not long behind him, dying also of disease the following May of 1863.
Theresa never remarried. By the 1870 census, she is living with an elderly couple in their 70s, named Worthington, with Violet.

Then by 1880, it's just she and her daughter. Two years later Violet marries and starts her own family. It's easy to assume that Theresa lived with them and enjoyed her grandchildren as they were being born. By the time the 1900 census is taken, there are four, ranging from 2 to 12.
The following decade was tragically the end. John Farmer died in 1901, and Violet died in 1915. It's unknown when Theresa died, but it must have been in decade, as well, as by the 1910 census, three of the younger kids, in their tween years, were staying with "Rusty" Dugger who identified himself as their grandfather, born 1831. It's not determined exactly who he was, but probably a great uncle.
Rest in Peace, Aunt Theresa.

Family notes: "Many of the Moyers were musical. Harold Moyer, father of Will, played alto horn. He directed a small civic band in Cropsy, Illinois. He would play the alto with one hand and direct the band with the other. Flora, Will's motr, played their reed organ. Ted sold the organ and bought a piano. Gertie, May, and Bessie all became quite proficient on the piano. Gertie played regularly for the Macabee Lodge in Springfield. She could also fill in on the bass drum if necessary. May was a good singer, and was in demand for social occiasions. Ted and Will were both good drummers.
Harold and Flora were divorced sometime around 1895. She remarried a Mr. Newell and lived in Indiana.

Other-Begin:
general info, as I do not have this document, is that there was an "Applicaton in the Matter of Finding the Heirship of Harold C. Moyer" which states,
that Harold was married a second time to Rachel Moyer (d. 19 Sept. 1933) who already had two sons, Rev. R.A.Beaty and Jessie B. Thompson (Tompkins?). Mae Winter Buth (Ruth), granddaughter of Harold also testified. She was the daughter of Mae Winter who was the daughter of Harold. Marie Henry was another granddaughter of Harold. Marie's mother was Gertie Crutcher.

This is according to Johnny Moyer, referring to his mother, Elizabeth Deaton Moyer's research.

Letter written in 1963 by Enoch Garet Stone, son of Cicero, to cousin Alene, wherein he quoted from this letter, written by Enoch Herschel to his brother Elihu.

(dated Apr 9, 1882 from White Co, Tenn)
Quote: "Cicero still lives at Bloomington and Vick lives with him. Newton is there going to school. Herschel is still living at his Uncle Geo. Anderson's. Aut is now at home. Moyers lives close to me and farming. Cleopatrae & Omega, Euclid & Mary are all at home growing finely. Minerva has only had two children. Mary is the youngest will be 7 years
old the last day of July." This old letter was headed White Co. Tenn. and dated April 9, 1882.

Now quoting a little further from the same old letter,
Quote: "I suppose Phama, wrote you about the death of Nelly Moyers, she died last January at her Uncle Geo. Anderson's with consumption. John her brother came to see her while she was sick, and I think she died the next day after he left."

I quote the above to show you that Uncle Moyers [Oliver Moyers Stone] was named for Nelly's father, who I am quite sure married Elizabeth [Elizabeth C. Stone], who was grandfather's sister, i.e., I know he had a sister, Elizabeth, and am quite sure she married Mr. Moyers [Oliver Hopkins Moyers]. He is the one who lived in Nashville,and Ridley Stone was my brother who lived there for many years until he moved to California.

Other Events and Attributes:

• Other-Begin: 26 Apr 1931; letter

Notes:

Cate is only known of because Cicero Stone mentioned in a letter in 1932 those who had died since a previous letter he had written in 1877, and listed Cate. She is not listed in her father's household in 1870 or 1880 census. Was she first born or last born? If first born, maybe married young? If last born, could Elizabeth have died in childbirth, and perhaps Cate died as well? Oliver is back in Tennessee living near Cicero in 1882. Cicero lists Cate as those who have passed since 1877. Would he have mentioned her if she was a newborn? She must have been a young girl and gone with her father back to Tennessee between 1880 and 1882 for her to be mentioned by Cicero. He made the vague statement of several cousins, but then named her specifically. So, she must have been in his life for a period of time.
My guess is that Elizabeth died soon after Cate was born; the other children were all grown and married, except Nellie, who by then was about 21. Oliver took Nellie and his new daughter back to Tennessee to be with his in-laws. They couldn't have been there long when Nellie died, as was written about in the letters, while visiting her Aunt Phama. Cate could have lived on for a period of time in Tennessee for Cicero to remember her.

Other-Begin:
referenced in letter by Cicero to his son Enoch in a letter dated April 26 1931; and then quoted in a letter from Enoch to his cousin Alene written on 3 Jan 1963.
Cicero remembering those who had died since last letter of 1877 listed, "... some of my Cousins, Cate (Moyer's daughter)..."
(see attached)


Died:
died bet 1877 and 1931, referred to in letter as "Moyers dau" from Cicero written in 1931.

note: she is not listed in her father's household in 1870 or 1880 census. Was she first born or last born? If first born, maybe married young? If last born, could Elizabeth have died in childbirth, and perhaps Cate died as well? Oliver is back in Tennessee living near Cicero in 1882. Cicero lists Cate as those who have passed since 1877. Would he have mentioned her if she was a newborn? She must have been a young girl and gone with her father back to Tennessee between 1880 and 1882 for her to be mentioned by Cicero. Why didn't Cicero list Elizabeth, his sister, in those who had passed? Was she dead before 1877, or did he not think of her since she was away in Illinois?

Mary married Samuel Chambers about 1870. Samuel was born in 1851 in Tennessee; died after 1880 in of, Jefferson Co, Tennessee. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

There's some confusion on Aaron Pleasant, son of James Napoleon and Pleasant A, son of John Alexander. Both are of the same age and lived in the same area. Census records show Aaron Pleasant staying nearby with Andrew, a son of James Napoleon; so the one who married Sarah McClure, is best guess the Aaron Pleasant who was son of James Napoleon. The family shown in the census records could be either one.

Notes:

Daughter of John & Mary Elizabeth (Moyers) Paaarks. First wife of Hawkins (Hawk) B. Wheeler Married Aug 04, 1871. Soon after the marriage, the went to Slaughtersville, KY where her husband was a school teacher, later to become Superintendent of Schools. Family legends have indicated that she went to McAlister, OK to live with her son, John Morgan Wheeler. This has not been confirmed, because recent found records confirm that John Morgan is buried in the Robinson Cemetery, Gallatin Co., KY. And much more recently, records have been located that Amanda is buried in the Petersburg Cemetery in Sebree, Webster Co., KY. Records have been found of the burial site of three of her infant children in the Craig Cemetery on the Ernest Hawkins farm approximately three miles north of Nebo, KY. Now it will be possible to link Amanda to her father and mother and the three infants.
