William Vaughn Moses. - The buisness life of Mr. Moses was connected with his brother, Oliver, in the firm of
W. V. & O. Moses. The two sons of Mr. Moses, William O. and Albert, having completed their education in the
High School of their native city, united with their father in ship building, in 1856, making the firm W. V. Moses
& Sons. The vessels built by them were: ships W. V. Moses, N. Larrabee, Sarah Freeman, bark Rome, ships Fannie
Larrabee, Thos. Freeman, Riverside, North Star, Invincible, Franconia, Palestine, Lucy Melville, G. Strickland,
Oleron, Frank Haynie, and Lizzie Moses.
The business career of William V. Moses was one of success. This was well earned by his;Invariable attention to
his business, his strict integrity, and pleasing manners. With a fine physique was added a uniformly cheerful countenance.
In his just and upright walk he made no enemies. Without taking active part in political party matters he was ever
a solid Democrat. In religious sentiments he affiliated with the Swedenborgian denomination, and was, through life,
a practical, temperate man in all things. Of such a man it may be unnecessary to add that he lived and died a most
respected citizen.
