ANDREW JACKSON MOYE. A position of leadership in a community is not easily acquired except by hard work, careful management and enduring integrity. When his fellow citizens in Randolph county speak of Mr. Moye as the wealthiest or one of the wealthiest men of the county they also imply in this assertion that he has acquired this position of both affluence and influence by the most honorable means, and that his long life has been one of utmost honor in all its varied relations. Past eighty years of age, Mr. Moye is one of the oldest residents of Randolph county, and represents a family which gave pioneer service in clearing the woods, and making farms and planting the early crops and founding of civilized institutions in this section of Georgia. Andrew Jackson Moye was born on a
plantation about ten miles east of Barnwell Courthouse in South Carolina, December 12, 1832. His father was the Hon. Allen Moye, who was born on the same plantation in 1798. The grandfather was Matthew Moye who was born in North Carolina, whence he emoved to South Carolina, purchasing land bordering upon Falttatcher creek, ten miles east of Barnwell Courthouse. The grandfather was a man of much ability and considerable property, and with the aid of his slaves cleared out a farm and made it his home until his death.
Allen Moye, the father, acquired a good education in his native district and was still a very young man when he was called into public affairs. He was elected a representative in the state legislature, a few weeks before he was twenty-one years of age. In 1834 he sold his estate in South Carolina and came into Georgia, settling in Randolph county. On that journey he was accompanied by his wife and six children, and they came through the woods and over the rough roads and trails with teams and wagons, bringing all their household goods and a large supply of agricultural implements, the slaves following along on foot. A tract of land three miles northwest of Cuthbert was the site chosen for his location. At that time the population in this district was very sparse and the Indians were still here and laid claim to the region as their hunting grounds. He was in Georgia in time to participate in the last great Indian war of 1836, when the southwestern Indians were finally defeated and compelled to remove to the West. In 1841, Allen Moye became a candidate for the state senate. During the campaign he attended a rally and barbecue at which he caught cold and his death occurred before the election. Allen Moye married Sarah J. Rice, daughter of Charles Rice, who so far as known was a lifelong resident of South Carolina in the Barnwell district. Mrs. Moye died in 1862 at the age of sixty years. Her ten children were named William, John, George, Andrew J., Mary, Benjamin, Wyatt, Allen, and Sarah.
Andrew Jackson Moye since he was two years of age has spent nearly all his life in Randolph county, and there is probably no other resident whose actions cover so much of the development of this section from its primitive conditions to the present time. As a boy he attended one of the neighborhood schools, that school being taught in a log building on the home farm. Subsequently the old frame courthouse at Cuthbert was removed in order to make room for a new brick structure, and the old building was then put to use as a school house, and as a boy he remembers that building as one of the institutions in Randolph county. Early in his youth he went to Georgetown, and became clerk in a general store. With the earnings of that occupation during two years he was enabled to advance
his education, and attended the Brownwood Institute at Lagrange, and remained there as a student until the death of his brother George. Then at the solicitation of his mother he returned home to take charge of the farm. The following year he went to Eufaula, Alabama, where he was engaged in clerking for a time, after which he returned to the farm for a few months, and then moved into Cuthbert, where he was clerk in the store of Mr. Jesse E. Key until the latter's death. Then in 1859 he bought a plantation adjoining the old homestead and devoted all his time and attention to agricultural activities until after the war.
In 1864 Mr. Moye enlisted in Company B, of the Tenth Georgia Infantry, and was engaged with this regiment in the defense of Atlanta. After the fall of that city he was in the battle at Griswolds Station, and while the army was on the inarch to Altamaha he was detailed as assistant quartermaster, being sent back to Macon where he remained until the close of the war. He was then paroled, and returned home to the farm, where he continued to live and manage the property until 1875. In that year he moved into Cuthbert and has since had his home in the county seat. His father soon after moving1 to Randolph county, bought a block of land west of and facing the public square in Cuthbert, and on a portion of this land Mr. A. J. Moye erected a building which he has since used for an office. For many years he has made a business of loaning- money, and also employs his time in looking after his various investments, and other affairs.
In November, 1859, he married Laura J. West, who was born in Stewart county, a daughter of William and Laura Elizabeth (Pettit) West. Mr. and Mrs. Moye have five children: Andrew Clinton, Robert Leiden, Andrew Pettit, Loraine Mickle and Claude T. The son, Andrew Clinton, is a planter and has a mill and gin in Randolph county. He married Dixie Harris, and their two children are named Hubert Melton and Clinton. Robert L. is a practicing attorney and former mayor of Cuthbert, and by his marriage to Florence Powell has three children named Annie Laurie, Powell, and Eloise. Andrew P. is a merchant and planter, and married Lilla Tumlin, and their five children are Lewis, Guydon, Marie, Martha and Claude. Loraine M. married Elizabeth Walrath, and their two children are Laura Estelle and Andrew J. The parents of Mr. Moye were Baptists, and his wife is a member of that faith and has reared her children in the creed and practice of this religion.
