Images document the extensive family and descendants of Octavia Harby Moses, featuring members of the Harby, Moïse, Levy, Moses, and Davis families, as well as a single member of the Phelps family, a single member of the Bultman family, and a number of unidentified individuals. Examples include Armida Harby, Thomas Jefferson Moïse and his wife Rebecca Harby Moses Moïse, Ansley S. Davis and his wife Armida Moses Davis, Caroline Moses, Dulcie Moïse, Lucia Levy, Albert L. Moses, and others. The photographs originate from a number of different states, including Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, New York, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina.
