Joseph Moffctt and Frank J. Moffctt, Esq. 1908 as-;/ EXPLANATION. The number following the name in this work is the number of the gener- ation to which the person belongs, which can be traced by referring to the outline pages at the beginning — the first one of the name that we have any record of being taken as generation No. 1 . Blank pages are for any data that you may wish to record in regard to the names on opposite page. At the back are pages for records of births, marriages and deaths, and we ask that you keep a record of your family here as complete as possible as it may be of assistance to some in the future, who may wish to bring this history up to a fu- ture date. Copies of this book can be had by addressing Dr. Geo. Moffett, 30't' • ^ammacw Dldi i ., Kui]ju.t City , Mo., or Dr. A. Moffett, CllwiyVSlte, Kdub. Cj ^ fjl ^^iiciiyvaie PREFACE. In preparing this brief history of the Ballybay, Ireland, branch of the Moffett family, we have endeavored to make it as complete as pos- sible with the facilities we had at hand. We worked with the hope that some member of the branch with more time and means at their command might be able at some future time to make it more complete, which may be done by continuing the history of the families given, tracing those not given and by searching old records of land t ties. leases, army records, church records, etc.. in Ireland, and thereby trying to trace the family farther back than where this history begins. There are many different branches of the Moffelts in the U. S.. many of whom came here between 1 600 and 1 700. The spelling of the name differs slightly in the families and we also find that the spelling sometimes differs among members of the same family. We find all the vowels used in both the first and last syllables giving us many combinations. Some of the most striking spellings are Maphet. Miffit. Morfot. Mophat. Muffat, Moffette. Mofht. Maffet. Moffal. Maffitt. etc. But no matter what the spelling, they are all supposed to come from the same origin. Almost every family has some tradition as to the origin of the name. There are two principal theories as to the origin; one that the name and family carrying it originated near the present town of Moffat. Scotland, the other that it came from Italy with the spread of the Christian religion up through France. Normandy. England, and thence into Scotland. It is supposed that the forefathers of our branch came from Eng- land to Ireland about the time King William conquered the north of Ireland. But the fact is not certain. Martha Moffett. 4. daughter of James Moffet. 3. was the first of the Ballybay branch to emigrate to America, coming about 1835, to Central Illinois. In preparing this work we tried to get the same facts from each one so as to have the biographies about equal, but found it hard to do. Some were reluctant to send in what they could, and some could not send in what was required, from neglect of having kept the important dates in the lives of their parents and grandparents. Others responded Willingly and were glad to do all they could to help along, for which we are very grateful, and to one and all who have aided us in any way we —3— want to here express our thanks and appreciation of their aid. We hope that the next who tries the work may find in this some records that may help him. We cannot help but feel the mistake that we all make in not keep- ing a record of the important dates in our lives when we undertake a work of this kind. This work may contain some mistakes, but we have tried to get the data as near correct as possible, and have put the material in just as received from the parties sending it in. A tradition gives the oldest mention of the name (Moffett) as in 1 066, when the Norman Knight, William de Moffette, came with the invading force of William the Conqueror, into England. Authentic church records show that Nicholde de Moffat, Archdeacon of Tivotdale, became Bishop of Glasgow, in 1268. There is a genealogy in preparation of all the Moffat Clan in America, by Geo. W, Maffet, of Lawrence, Kas., as editor and his- torian in chief, aided by several other branch historians. The above work, if finished, may contain a copy of this work. Yours, GEORGE MOFFETT, ADAM MOFFETT. -4— I N n K X . Xo. Gen. Anderson, Helen M 387 7 Becker, Clarence L 3)3 6 Ik-ckcr. A.lalaidc E 2l>4 6 Hecker, Ktiie \V 205 6 Becker.

The following anecdote is told about him. He was the owner of a race horse, which was stolen from him. He followed it on foot and traced it to Dublin. On going to the police, they advised him to go down in the evening to the River Liffey and watch them bring down the horses to drink. The second night he went he saw his horse, and takins! some police with him on the following night, seized it. and rode back to Crievagh in triumph. He was a great rider, and when at full gallop could pick up a hat from the road. He was very athletic and could jump as high as his own head. 3. Isabella Moffett. 2 (James 1).
