Hi Jennifer. I am from Lawson Race's line, son of Moses and Mary Race. I haven't researched the family very closely yet, but have some info. I noticed some of yours was different than mine. You probably have the right info because I haven't gone into the records to verify yet. Thought I would write down the info. I have, in case it gave you any clues. I live in Pendleton Co. Ky. right down the road from where the Race family used to live before they scattered to the four winds.

Moses Race - married Mary Tomlin, dau. of John Michael Tomlin of Culpepper Co. Virginia. Records I've found state that Moses Race made tomb stones along with farming for a living.
Children of Moses and Mary:

1.Lawson Race - married Pheobe Hawkins. Had 11 children, one of them being my great great grandmother Sarah Jane Race who married Stephen Brittenham.

2. Delila Race - married Benjamin Clemons. Moved to Illinois.

3. Maxa Race - married Charles Eggleston, moved to Kansas around 1865.

4. Joana Race - married William Griffin.

5. Missouri Race - married Francis Devlin.

6. James Enos Race - died in Texas.

7. Icephene Race - married David Stephens

8. Monora Race

10. John Race - married Martha Shively in 1841.
