Can you tell us where you have already looked? Saves duplication!! You are looking for very early records now of course....not all of them survive.

Have you noticed typo in your thread title  ;D might be worth correcting using the 'Modify' button....

It wasn't a criticism Hannah!!

Do you mean ScotlandsPeople?

Back to looking for Moodies/Moodys/Mudies.... you've obviously been trying for some time - I see there are quite a few other threads among which
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=726818.msg5711800#msg5711800
where there are others listed. So it would be greatJust wondered if you could somehow get together all the information found over the years by helpful rootschatters. Otherwise people new to your query will work hard to 'rediscover' stuff that's already been researched.
