Notes for Moses Faubion
The following received from Patt Seitas;
Moses was born n February 3, 1780 in Faquier county, Virginia to Jacob Faubion and Dianah Rector. He was one of the middle children in a large family.His oldest sister was about ten years older, his youngest sister about ten years younger. He probably learned blacksmithing from his father. When he was sixteen years or younger, he went with his parents and his brothers and sisters across the "Great Mountains" into Cherokee County, i. e., Tennessee.
In 1798, Moses married Mary McPike in East Tennessee. She was the daughter of Obedience Holloway and William McPike, both of whom were born in Ireland.
In 1820, when a Methodist campground was established near Old Newport, Tennessee and later moved to Parrotsville, Tennessee, Moses and one of his brothers were among the principle "Tenters."
The following information provided to Patt by (History of Lawrence, Orange and Washington Counties, Indiana, by Goodspeed Brothers & Company, Chicago, published 1884, the 1830 census of Indiana, and Lawrence County, Indiana Deed Book C., page 1301.
In 1827, Moses, Mary and 13 of their 15 children, migrated to Indiana. They left behind a small son buried in Tennessee and their eldest son, Jacob who decided to stay in Tennessee with his family. They sold their farm in Tennessee for $5,000. They made the trip in one four-horse wagon and one-six horse wagon. They may have had to "stop over" for a period of time somewhere along the way. Moses settled his family on a farm north of the present Heltonville, Pleasant Run Township in Lawrence County, Indiana. Moses's sons Henry and William are shown as heads of households in the 1830 Indiana census as is Samuel Fowler who married Moses's daughter, Charlotte. On October 10, 1831, Moses bought a farm near Heltonville. The Faubions were one of the pioneering families of Lawrence county, Indiana.
About the same time, in the 1830's, several of Moses's siblings and their families moved from Tennessee to Missouri, including Jacob, Spencer, the children of his brother John, and the family of his deceased sister, Sally Broadhurst.
Moses's will, dated August 13, 1845, was admitted for probate and proved on December 6, 1847. On December 16, 1847, Moses's sons Noah and William were named administrators of the estate and their brother Enoch as security. (Noah and William were literate, each signing their names while Enoch signed with an "x.") The will named all living children as well as the heirs of Mose's deceased sons Jacob and Henry. Moses's estate was settled sometime after his daughter Obedience died on January 15, 1848; her heirs are listed in the settlement document. Moses, as wellas his wife, Mary, were buried in the Faubion Cemetery in Pleasant Run Township in Lawrence county, Indiana.
The children are listed on Patti Seitas page 9-FB, all are the same but Edom Faubion is not listed.

The Following comes from Faubion and Allied Families, page 197:
Moses Faubion was born in Fauquier County, Virginia 3 February 1780 (1778). He died in Lawrence County, Indiana in November 1847, and is buried in Faubion Cemetery, Pleasant Run Township. His gravestone bears the year of birth: 1780. Moses married in East Tennessee in 1798, Mary McPike, daughter of William and Obedience (Holloway) McPike who were natives of Ireland. Mary was born in Virginia in 1780; she died in Lawrence County, Indiana 18 January 1830, and was buried alongside Moses in the Faubion Cemetery there.
Moses was around sixteen, or younger, when he came with his parents across the 'Great Mountains' into the Cherokee Country that was to become East Tennessee. He no doubt learned the blacksmith trade at his father's forge, and farmed the land required to help sustain this pioneer family. When a Methodist campground was established in 1820 near Old Newport and later moved to Parrotsville, he and his brother Jacob were among the principal tenters.
Sometime before the 1830 census was taken in the East Tennessee area, Moses and Mary, with thirteen of their fifteen children, migrated to Indiana. They made the trip in one four-horse wagon and one six-horse wagon, settling on a farm north of present Heltonville, Pleasant Run Township, Lawrence County, Indiana. They had left a small son buried in East Tennessee; and their eldest son Jacob and his family had chosen to remain in Tennessee. We are not certain of the exact date of this move. Son Henry, who was married, and son William, who was single, are each shown as head of a household on the Lawrence County, Indiana 1830 Census, as is Samuel Fowler, husband of Moses' daughter Charlotte. It is possible that Moses and Mary, with some of the children, had to "stop over" for a period of time somewhere along the way. He purchased his farm north of Heltonville on 10 October 1831 (Deed Book C, page 1301).
Moses' Will, dated 13 August 1845, was admitted for probate and proven, 6 December 1847. On 16 December 1847, his sons William and Noah were named Administrators with their brother Enoch as Security. These documents were signed by Noah and Enoch with only William using "His 'X' Mark." The Will named all the living children, as well as the heirs of Moses' deceased sons Jacob and Henry. The Estate was settled sometime after his daughter Obedience died on 15 January 1848, and her heirs are listed in the settlement documents.
