Sloss Family Genealogy Forum
  
My understanding from theHistory of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America By Ezra Hall Gillett (1864) and some other references, is that James Long Sloss had a brother Joseph, a tailor by trade, who is mentioned as the first person to have apprenticed Andrew Johnson in Mooresviile Ala. (Andrew Johnson: A Biography By Hans L. Trefousse). Joseph's son was James Withers Sloss, the Birmingham iron magnate, and thus a cousin of my great great grandfather, James Long Sloss II of St Louis. Visit my genealogy page at http://mitchrice.org/blog/, I keep adding information to that page.
