Moses Brotherton (James, Nancy) was born in March 1850 in
Tennessee UN14, circa 1851 or 1852 in Tennessee UN15, UN16, about 1853 in Tennessee UN13, or about 1854 in Tennessee UN12. His Bollinger County, Missouri death
certificate stated that Moses was born to James Brotherton (who was born in
Tennessee) and an unknown mother on January 1, 1850 in Missouri. This birthdate
matches the inscription on his gravestone. If this birthdate was correct, he
should have been enumerated with his parents in 1850, yet in that census year,
their youngest child was one-year-old Johnny UN10. Because it was closest to his birth
year, the 1860 census would rationally be the most advantageous census record
to determine his birth year, and it stated that he was eight years old UN11. He was listed just below Abraham, age
ten, and above Jane, age six UN11.
Moses’ older brother, John, was listed above Abraham, and the census enumerator
recorded that John was twelve UN11.
Whether the 1860 or the 1870 census records were erroneous is unknown, but in
1870, Abraham’s age was eighteen, Moses was sixteen, and Jane was fourteen UN12. According to census records, Moses was a
farmer. Moses Brotherton married Mary M. Statler on August 31, 1871 in
Bollinger County, Missouri MI15, BO24 in a ceremony officiated by Elisha J.
Fulton, Justice of the Peace BO24.
The death
certificate for Moses indicated that he died in Whitewater Township, Bollinger
County, Missouri on April 4, 1930 at age eighty from general paralysis, and was
buried at Post Oak Cemetery. Although
he had already died, Moses Brotherton was enumerated in the 1930 US Census UN17. The page of the census on which his
name was located, Sheet 8B, did not have a date, but the page before was dated
April 23, 1930 and the page after was dated April 25, 1930 UN17. This census occurred about twenty days
after his death. He and “Margret” allegedly resided in the household of his
son, Abe Brotherton, and his stated age was eighty UN17. This census recorded that at the time
of their wedding, Moses was nineteen and “Margret” was twenty-one UN17.

Mary
Margaret Statler (Adam, Harriet) was born on June 7, 1855
in Bollinger County, Missouri according to her death certificate, which was
filed in Bollinger County, Missouri, but the 1900 US Census stated she was born
in June 1852, and her gravestone listed a birthdate of June 7, 1854. Her death
certificate stated that her father and mother were Adam J. Statler and
Harriette Jaco. She was the mother of James Monroe, Sena Mary J., Louisa,
Frances E., Pide, Harry, Arzy (or Arzil) Pinkney, Minnie M., Ida Mai, John Franklin,
and Abraham Brotherton.
The
Dunklin County, Missouri death certificate for James Monroe Brotherton, stated that he was born on November 15,
1871 in Patton, Missouri to Moses Brotherton and Margaret Statler. An almost utterly faded Dunklin County,
Missouri marriage record indicated that on August 11, 1898, “Ja… Brotherton”
married a woman whose name has nearly disappeared from the page MI17. He may have married Frances Louisa
Killian, whose Dunklin County death certificate stated that she was born in
1880 and was thirty-seven when she died in Clay Township, Dunklin County from
“Malarial and Pneumonia Lobar Fever” on November 8, 1917. The informant for the
death certificate was the same person as the physician who attended
to Frances, whose name was J.M. Brotherton, M.D. There appear to be several small water marks on the document. According to his
death certificate, James’ death, which was caused by nephritis, occurred in
Union Township, Dunklin County, Missouri on June 6, 1944, and a gravestone
located at Liberty Cemetery in Caruth, Dunklin County, indicated that Dr. J.M
Brotherton was born on November 15, 1871 and died on June 6, 1944 (a photo of
the gravestone can be found on the Find a
Grave website).
Sena Mary J. Brotherton was born on August 5, 1873 in Patton,
Missouri, according to her Dunklin County, Missouri death certificate. Louisa was born about 1875 UN13, and according to the inscription on a gravestone at the Flatwoods
Cemetery in Sedgewickville, Bollinger County, “Louisa Dau of M & M M
Brotherton” was born on September 28, 1875, and died
on September 1, 1881 (a photo of the gravestone can be found on the Find a Grave website). Frances was born in January 1877 UN14. Frances
E. Brotherton married Marion N. Killian on March 25, 1897 in Bollinger
County, Missouri MI17. At the time of the 1900 US Census,
Frances and Marion Killian resided in the home of Moses and Mary M. Brotherton
in German Township, Bollinger County, Missouri UN14. “Pide
son of M & M M Brotherton” was born on August 24, 1880, and died on
September 15, 1885, according to his gravestone, located at the Flatwoods
Cemetery in Sedgewickville, Bollinger County, Missouri (a photo of which can be
found on the Find a Grave website). Another source stated that “Pid”
Brotherton died at age six on September 3, 1885 FO13, but this death date and age at the
time of death does conflict with the information on his gravestone.
Harry Brotherton was born on January 14, 1883 in Patton, Bollinger County,
Missouri US27,
US28 to Moses
Brotherton and Mary M. Statler US27. He applied for a marriage license to marry Sarah E. Crites on
March 15, 1905 in Cape Girardeau County, Missouri MI17. A death certificate for Harry Brotherton, issued by Cole County,
Missouri was likely for her son; this Harry Brotherton was born on January 14,
1883, and died at age seventy-two from cerebral thrombosis due to hypertension
on July 11, 1955 in the Missouri State Penitentiary Hospital in Jefferson City,
Cole County, Missouri where he was an inmate, but the names of his father and mother were unknown. The
death certificate stated that his usual residence was in Patton, Missouri. A gravestone marker for Harry and Sarah
E. Brotherton (the photo of which can be found on the Find a Grave website) located in Post Oak Cemetery, Patton,
Bollinger County, Missouri indicated that Harry was born on January 14, 1883
and died on July 11, 1955, and that Sarah was born on June 14, 1884 and died on
May 29, 1959.
Arzy Pink Brotherton was born on April 28, 1885 in Bollinger County US28; the Bollinger County, Missouri death
certificate for Pink Brotherton stated the same birthdate and birthplace and
added that his father and mother were Mose Brotherton and “Margret” Statler. The World War I draft
registration card for Arzil Pinkney Brotherton, dated September 12, 1918,
recorded the same birthdate, and noted that his nearest relative was Rella
Brotherton US14. His
United States Social Security application indicated that his name was “Pinkney
A. Brotherton”, and he was married to Rella C. Seabaugh US27. His Bollinger County death certificate stated that Pink died in
Bollinger County on November 3, 1948 from a cerebral hemorrhage due to
hypertension, and he was buried at Post Oak Cemetery in Patton, Bollinger
County, Missouri; the
gravestone located there is engraved with the names of Rev. Pink Brotherton,
who was born on April 28, 1885 and died on November 3, 1948, and Rella
Brotherton, who was born on September 28, 1882 and died on July 20, 1963 (the
photo of the headstone can be found on the Find
a Grave website).
Minnie M. (Brotherton) Wilson, the daughter of Mose Brotherton and “Margerett”
Statler, was born on January 1, 1888, according to her Cape Girardeau County,
Missouri death certificate. The Cape Girardeau County, Missouri death
certificate for Minnie M. Wilson stated that she died at age thirty-nine in
Millersville, Cape Girardeau County, Missouri on September 2, 1927, and that her cause of death was
“undetermined, There was indication of some [a word here is illegible, but may
state “serious” or “Previous”] abdominal trouble and a colo… [the previous word
is indecipherable] of Heart”. The gravestone of Charles and Minnie Wilson,
located at Post Oak Cemetery in Patton, Bollinger County, Missouri (the photo
of the gravestone can be found on the Find
a Grave website), stated that Minnie was born on January 1, 1888 and died
on September 2, 1927, and that Charles was born on June 15, 1886 and died on
July 21, 1953.
Ida Mai (Brotherton) Crites was born on
December 23, 1889 in Patton, Missouri to Moses Brotherton and “Margarte
Stattler”, according to her
Cape Girardeau County, Missouri death certificate. Ida Brotherton and Ferdinand Crites,
both of Patton, Bollinger County, Missouri were married by Reverend Seabright
on August 2, 1906 at the Crites’ residence in Bollinger County, and both of
their fathers, Moses Brotherton and David Crites, gave consent to the marriage MI17. The Cape Girardeau County, Missouri
death certificate for Ida Mai Crites recorded that she died on October 16, 1942
from “P O Schock” (shock) due to the removal of a large malignant ovarian tumor
which had adhered to her intestines.
John Franklin Brotherton was born on April 10, 1892 in Patton,
Missouri US14; his Cape County, Missouri death
certificate stated the same birthdate and birthplace, and added that he was
born to Moses Brotherton and Margaret Statler. Johnie F. Brotherton of Patton, Bollinger County married
Nola Reagan of Marquand, Madison County on September 2, 1911 at Perryville,
Perry County, Missouri MI17.

Brotherton has given his assent to his marriage” MI17. His Cape County, Missouri death certificate stated that he died on
October 8, 1957 from
“arterio sclerotic heart disease [with] acute and chronic congestive failure”
in Jackson, Cape Girardeau County, Missouri.
The Bollinger
County, Missouri death certificate for Abe
Brotherton stated that he was born on March 7, 1894 in Patton, Missouri to
Mose Brotherton and “Margett Stattler”. The gravestone shared by Abraham and Priscilla Brotherton in
Post Oak Cemetery in Patton, Bollinger County stated
that he was born on July 28, 1894. Abraham Brotherton of Patton and Priscilla
Green of Hurricane, Bollinger County, were married by George Ellinghouse on
November 20, 1913 in Marble Hill, Bollinger County, Missouri MI17. The fathers of the bride
and groom, John Green and Moses Brotherton, gave their consent to the
marriage MI17. Abe and “Prescllill” or “Prescillia”
Brotherton, ages thirty-six and thirty-two, respectively, were enumerated in
Scopus Township, Bollinger County, Missouri in the 1930 US Census with
“Margret” and Moses Brotherton, who were called Abe’s mother and father UN17. The date on which they were enumerated
was probably April 24, 1930. Their names were written on Sheet 8B, which did
not have a date, but it was sandwiched between Sheet 8A, with a date of April
23, 1930, and Sheet 9A, dated April 25, 1930 UN17. According to the gravestone at Post
