Joseph was the third of six children, one of whom, Hezekiah, lives in the same township. Mr. Moberly's young days were spent upon his father's farm in Ohio, and when in his twentieth year he was married to Miss Mary Caldwell in Lawrence County, Ohio. He began farming and continued that occupation until 1880, when he came to Henry County, Missouri, and located in Walker Township, buying a farm of eighty acres.
