The history of my Moody family in New England starts with Frances Moody, who was married Thomas Kilbourn, they came to New England in 1635, settling in Wethersfield Conn. Frances was sister to John and Elizabeth Moody. Elizabeth married John Pratt of Wood Ditton, Cambridgeshire. In 1633, her brother John was in Roxbury Mass. and by 1639, in Hartford Conn.
- Frances was christened Oct. 11, 1584 in Wood Ditton, Cambridge, England and died Nov. 10, 1650 in Wethersfield.
-
- Her parents were George Moody, sone of Richard Moody b. Sept. 1560 and d. Aug. 23 1607, and Margaret (Margery) Chenery, who was b. abt 1560 in Moulton, Suffolk, England and d. Jan. 25, 1602. I have also seen Margaret with surname of Newce. Also of note is an artical in the from Vol: LXXX. 21 of NEGHR - July 1926, page 323, concering the "Genealogiecal Research in England" of the Moody family.in it is this footnote:
-
- A George Moody and Marg[er]y Bacon were married at All saint's, Sudbury, co. Suffolk, 19 Jan. 1600/1. If this George Moody is identical with George Moody (No.2) of he pedigree, that all of the latter's children except Mary, the ninth and youngest child, were children by an earlier wife, who's name is unknown, who died between the birth of the eighth child, Anne (baptized 5, Sept. 1599), and 19 Jan. 1600/1. In that case Margaret (or Margery), wife of George Moodye, who was buried at Moutlon 25 Jan. 1602/3, was his second wife and mother of the ninth child only, and Christian Cramp, whom he married 5 Sept. 1604, was his third wife. - Editor.
