The Moler Family cemetery

(note: As it turned out through Y-DNA, this George Adam Moler was not the son of Ludwig who immigrated in 1730 with three sons, one being named George. Per History of Lancaster County," published in 1883, no further info was had of Ludwig's son George. This dedication is in error.)

of Jefferson County, West Virginia
In this cemetery are buried George Adam Moler (1714-1783) and his wife Eve. George Adam Moler came to America on Aug 29, 1730 with his father, Ludwig Mohler, settling first in Lancaster, Penn. He moved to this area around 1758. He received a land grant from Lord Fairfax in 1762. Due to a misspelling on this land grant "George changed the spelling of his last name from Mohler to Moler. This cemetery is on the original land grant. Also buried here are George Adam Moler, Jr., who served in the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War, and George Washington Moler, Jr., who served in Co. "D", 12th Virginia Cavalry Laurel Brigade C.S. A., who was wounded and died at Staunton, VA, on Dec 22 1863. This memorial is placed in memory of all the Moler's of Jefferson County, West Virginia, and their descendants. June 2001"
