In 1858 he purchased another 50 acre at lot 8, conc 5, for $2500. The school board paid him $25.00 and they built a stone school house on the corner of his property which became SS#1 (known as Moser School) in 1861. According to the 1861 census his farm was valued at $3,000. It comprised of 150 acres with the usual crops plus 1/2 acre of potatoes, 2 acre turnip. They had 100 lbs of maple sugar, 66 lbs of wool, 30 yds of cloth, 18 yds linen, 20 yds of flannel. Livestock consisted of 3 bulls, 9 steers, 6 cows, 4 horses (valued at $300) 1 colt, 26 sheep, 9 pigs. They had a lot of butter in store and some pork and beef in barrels. They also owned a pleasure carriage valued at $25.00. They lived in a 1 1/2 storey log house. Michael was born Catholic but changed his religion and is buried in the St. John's Lutheran Church cemetery on the Hessen Strasse Rd. not far from where they lived. Michael lived with his son Enoch until his death. The members of this family adopted the religion of their spouses.
