Mozelle could also be an Americanization of the river Moselle, which flows through France, Luxembourg, and Germany. In this instance, the French name of the river is derived (via Celtic) from the Latin Mosella, "little Meuse." The Meuse is a much larger river flowing north from France through Belgium and the Netherlands.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozelle_Britton On the 1916 SSA with 447 bearers.(Information from name #11517 originally submitted by user Cyneburga)
