Families;Moses father moved the family to Peacham, Vermont when Moses was 12 years old in June of 1797. He cleared a little spot and planted some vegetables, then put up a shanty on the banks of the Missiquoi River, not knowing the river often overflowed the banks. After building the shanty and planting the seeds, he returned to Peacham to get his family and returned in November. At this time, his second son, Mark, was nine years of age. Mark brought the cow through the woods from Peacham, and Moses's wife came on horseback with two children, accompanied by the hired man. Moses follow after them with what he could carry on a yoke of oxen in the way of furniture, clothing and provissions. The two children Mrs Elkins carried on horseback were the girls who later married Jesse Courser and Stephen Tree.
After Settling his family in the shanty, Moses returned to Peacham to return the borrowed oxen. While he was gone a heavy rain caused the river to rise and flood the ground where the shanty stood and where the horse and cow were tied. The family had to flee to higher ground and safety, where now is the family burying ground; The horse and cow which had benn released by the man also made it safely to high ground. The hired man put together a temporary shelter for the family from portions of the shanty that had been left behind by the river and when Moses returned, he built a new shanty on the high ground in which they spent that first winter.
Even though Peacham was fifty miles from Potton, Moses used to go back to that town and stay till he had earnd a bushel of meal, then carry it back home on his back. He used to hunt with the friendly St.Francis Indians for food. Once he had gone to Peacham to work and taken his son, Mark,to help him earn something for the family, leaving Mrs Elkins and the two girls alone in Potton. They had nothing to eat for two days and cried themselves to sleep at night. One morning Mrs.Elkins heard the cat at the door and found the cat had a wild rabbit. She took the rabbit away from the cat and cooked it, thus satisfying their hunger until her husband came home. During these early years the Indians often came in and threw down on the floor some ducks and by motion would indicate they wanted potatoes. Somtimes they would bring game and ask nothing in return. Moses returned to the states in his old age and died at Johnson, Vermont. His wife, Ruth Leavensworth, was born 24 Feb 1765 and died 1 Nov 1825. they had 8 childern.
