From the records
In the 1950 census Stapleton L. Mosby was living in Richmond with his wife, Nida L. He was the head of the household, 74, married and born in Virginia, and was recorded as unable to work.
Not yet settled. His age in 1950 points to a birth between April 1875 and March 1876. This page’s text gives September 10, 1874, and the dates at the top give September 20, 1874. A Social Security application record for a Stapleton Mosby born September 10, 1876, in Hanover County, Virginia, names his parents as Anderson Mosby and Ellen R. Mickens. The day, month and county match this page, but the year does not, so it is probably him but not yet confirmed.
