Joyce M MosleyJoyce Mosley Biography Joyce assumed the role of family historian over thirty years ago. Her African-American family can trace African, European, and Native American roots to colonial Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Her family history in this country beins in 1630 when Humphrey Morrey, the first mayor of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, landed at Oyster Bay, New York, Samuel Bustill, Deputy Registrar of the Colonial Province of West New Jersey, and Cyrus Bustill born enslaved in 1732. As free men, members of Joyce's family provided bread for George Washington's troops in Valley Forge, were agents on the Underground Railroad, enlisted as soldiers in the United States Colored Troops (USCT) during the Civil War, and were leaders in the Black community in early Philadelphia. The Morrey\Bustill family was one of the founding families of Cheltenham Township just outside Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. They are also among the founding families of several African-American churches in Philadelphia, including the historic African Episcopal Church of St. Thomas, the first black Episcopal Church in the USA founded in 1792.Joyce is a member of the Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), the Colonial Daughters of the 17th Century, the Society of Founding Families of New Jersey, The Society of Founding Families of Pennsylvania, African-American Genealogy Group, and the Sons and Daughters of the Middle Passage. In 2019, Joyce's family research was featured in a PBS episode of "Movers and Makers." https: //video.whyy.org/video/outbound-y8big3/. Read More Read Less
