Notater:

Finner at John Moses emigrerer 05.10.1905, med reisemål Minnesota.

Born in Strand in Rogaland county, Norway in 1885. He was the son of Reverend Henrik B. and Isabella (Eckersberg) Moses. He attended public school in Norway, and graduated from the high school at Kongsvinger in 1900 and from junior college in Oslo in 1903. He came to the United States in 1905 and worked for the Great Northern Railway from 1906 to 1911. He entered the University of North Dakota in 1912, and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in 1914. He entered the University of North Dakota Law School and graduated with a Juris Doctor degree in 1915. He began practicing law at Hazen, North Dakota in 1917.

From 1919 until 1923, and later from 1927 until 1933, Moses served as State's Attorney for Mercer County. In 1936 he came in third in the three-way governor's race, behind former governors William Langer and Walter Welford. Moses became governor in 1939, following William Langer's second term in the office. Moses worked hard to reduce Langer's influence. He sought to cut government spending and to balance the state's budget. Moses was in office during World War II. He tried to encourage war-time industries to locate in the state, but North Dakota ranked last in the nation for receiving war spending. Despite the lack of wartime appropriations, Moses' administration was a time of prosperity for the state. Rainfall was plentiful and there was a ready market for agriculture products. Moses was a popular governor. During his election campaign he gave speeches in English, German, or Norwegian, depending on his audience. A Democrat, Moses was noted for his support from both political parties. In 1944 Moses defeated Gerald P. Nye for a seat in the United States Senate. He died on March 3, 1945, shortly after taking his place in the Senate.

• Embede: 1859-1867, Klepp prestegjeld; Sokneprest i Klepp og han var kjent for å være en særs lærd mann. Han var overlag god til og messa. Dette skriv Arne Garborg i Knudaheibrev.

Notater:

Ei større oppgåve har Nestestog hatt 1794 i Brunkeberg kyrkje i Kviteseid, der han dekorerte kvelven ?hvor Dommedag med rædsomme Skikkelser staar Præsten for Øie hver Gang han træder op paa Prækestolen? (Landstad). John Moses, som var sokneprest i Kviteseid 1867-80, fekk alt overmåla, for han tolte ikkje å sjå det medan han preika, sa han. Overmålinga er seinare fjerna. Det kan også ha vore Nestestog-måling i fleire kyrkjer; Landstad meiner det, men det er anten overmåla eller kyrkjene rivne.
