  • Notes 
    • [Adapted by Alaric Faulkner from reminiscences of Lizzie Tait Gallaher, Notes of Stella Fox Beam]

      Adam was raised by his grandmother in Scotland, Elizabeth Austin Moffat.

      Adam Moffat came to this country with Joe Tait, who did not stay long.

      Adam was a stonemason and got into bridge work. He went down into Kentucky and did very well. Lizzie lost track of his family. [see brother David]
