Maggie and Joel Moses had 10 children. My folks often referred to them fondly as 'the Moses Clan'. They lived for a while in B.J.'s hotel in 1910 in Haskell, Texas. After the Moses clan moved to Pampa, Texas, in the 1930s, Daddy (Truman B Quillin, Sr.) and his dad (Paul Bryan Quillin) lived with them for a while in order to find work. It was a happy time for Daddy as he remembers the "pickin' and grinin'" as people would gather on the Moses's porch to sing and pick guitars. Daddy remembers Bob Wills joining them on occasion. There are so many members of the family that the group sheet had to condense in size to print. I apologize for the blurred image.
Digging into our family history creates deep connections. Genealogy is about finding our roots. As we research our family tree, we realize how our lives are intertwined with the history of our great nation. My family history includes the Quillin family, the Ewing family, the McNair family, the Jones family, the Bridges family, the King family and the Hulsey family. It is an honor to share their family stories. Search each family name by clicking the labels on the bottom right side.
