William Mozingo was my great grandfather. He was born approx. 1855 based on his age listed as 25 on the 1880 Greene Co., NC census. He died on June 13, 1928 and is buried at Harrel's Chapel, Greene Co., NC. He was married to Mary Elizabeth Dawson, born Oct 30, 1854, died July 1, 1926 also buried at Harrel's Chapel, Greene Co., NC. Mary Elizabeth was the daughter of Lemuel Dawson and Argent Bright Lassister of Institute, Lenoir Co., NC.

Children born to the above marriage:
Dora Elizabeth Mozingo, b. Mar 17 1879, died Feb 23 1963 and married to Dallas Ham.
Mertie Mozingo, married to David Gurganus.
Fannie Mozingo, married to John Ham.

Henry Mozingo, born Feb 2, 1885, Greene Co., NC, died May 14 1959 Snow Hill, Greene Co., NC. Buried in Snow Hill Cemetary. Maried Claudia Moore Jan 28 1906 in Arba, NC. (This was my grandfather and grandmother)

I have not been able to determine the father of William Mozingo. I do know that his brother Edward was killed at an early age. He was thrown from a wagon around Jason, NC and hit his head on a stump beside the road. We believe this is the only sibling of William. Greg

...Mary Elizabeth Dawson was the daughter of Lemuel Dawson and Argent Bright Lassiter. I may have mis-typed the surname in my first e-mail. I have not been able to find the parents of William. I have inquired with the Mozingo famililies in Pitt, Lenoir, Greene and Duplin Counties, they are not aware of any kinship to William Mozingo. Mary Elizabeth's family was very prominent in the Lenoir County area of Institute. My grandfather was of rather small stature, about 5'4" tall. He was a wagon maker in the Greene County area. I understand that his father, William, was a rather large man. My uncle told me that he remembered him as a child and he was very strong and had coal black hair...
