Moses Wallace served as a Private in Capt. Hugh Young's 93rd Regiment of the Virginia Militia in the War of 1812. (Description of Moses from his wife's application for Widow's Pension for his 1812 Service: 5 feet 6 inches tall, slender build, dark complexion, fair hair and hazel eyes.)

Moses died April 28, 1831; he is buried near his parents and close to many of his family members in the Old Lebanon Cemetery.

His Headstone has not been found but is most likely one of the unmarked stones which are not able to be identified.

We honor his memory.


*Note: The Old Lebanon Cemetery had been overgrown with thick shrubbery and fallen trees and forgotten for many years; in the early 2000's some wonderful people, including Daley Craig, John Robert Wallace and other family members of those originally buried there, took on the task of restoring the cemetery and attempting to piece together what they could of the broken headstones. Many of the monuments had been partially buried, many others were beyond repair, and many had simply disintegrated. There are some stones remaining that either do not have any writing on them or the writing is so worn that it is no longer legible. Moses Wallace's stone is among these, although many of the family headstones are in good condition. We are so grateful to the wonderful, caring people who attempted such a project....they not only restored a cemetery, they restored the memories of our loved ones for future generations. THANK YOU!
