This is what I have found on the Va. Moses. With what I have seen, I believe he is a brother of John, probably related to Francis. This data would indicate that if he went to S.C. he either did not stay long or there is a third Moses involved. I don't know who William is, but I do not believe he is related to the S.C. McCowns.
