Phoebe Anne Mosey/aka MOSES (Annie Oakley) has been well researched
by the late Tony Silers of Greenville. I knew Tony well! There
are copies of her findings at The GARST Museum in Greenville. As
well as a large collection of Annie's personal belongings. Annie
is buried beside her husband Frank BUTLER near North Star Ohio
a short distance north of Greenville Darke County Ohio.

I will check into this a bit farther. I do know that one of Annie's
lines was WISE (aka WEISE) and that they were Brethren here in Miami
County Ohio where I live. All of the Brethren WISE family here clam
Annie OAKLEY as relation. <FYI Miami and Darke Counties Ohio are next
to each other>
