John Moffett, Jr. was the son of John Moffett and Jane Ledgerwood Moffett. He was born 13 Jun 1775 and died 12 April 1821. He married Sarah Hays (6 Sep 1774 - 6 Jun 1859) on 9 Jan 1799.

They had Moffett children:

Samuel, 15 Sep 1799
John (III), 23 Jul 1801 - 25 Jun 1834 (OH), below
Hays, 17 Nov 1803 - 17 Mar 1877, below
William, 30 Aug 1806 - bef 13 Sep 1838 (IL), below
James, 13 Jul 1809 - 4 Oct 1880 (IL), below
Jane Ledgerwood, 11 Dec 1811 - 26 Jul 1899, below
Sarah Brownlee, 21 Mar 1814 - 25 Oct 1877 (Jno Brown), below
Eleanor Robinson, 19 Aug 1816 - 23 Jun 1892, below

He was the son of John Moffett and Jane Ledgerwood (also buried here) and inherited their homestead. His home was on "Back Creek" per DB #__, p 269.

According to the 12 Aug 1936 W.P.A. Historical Inventory of this cemetery by Scioto M. Herndon (online at Library of Virginia), there was a gravestone that once said:
JOHN MOFFETT
Son of John & Jane
12th day of 1821
Agd. "1821" (obviously a typo on report)

Photo: His name is listed, seventh from the bottom, on the left side of monument photo. Cenotaph monument was installed in the 1980's by Bethel Presbyterian Church. There are other date errors on this marker. It says:
JOHN MOFFETT
1776 - 1821

6/13 I confirmed he does not have an existing individual marker or one that is readable with a local photo volunteer, WLC.
