Hi, I've already posted this in the London Boards, but the name has connections in primarily southampton. Sooo... searching the name 'Moody.'
I dont know much on this side of family i'm looking for information on. I've recently met someone on GR who has only just started her side of the 'moody's,' and doesnt have much to go on as of yet.
So Trying to see if we can dig up anymore dirt on them!
Unfortunatly i'm lacking in dates at the moment. and out of money for getting my great nan sylvia's birth cert! so this is my long shot!
Father:
Alfred Moody- died in southampton. owned/ ran a fish and chip shop in east end london. lived at 80 Bitterne Road until he died.
Mother:
Lydia surname not known as of yet. no info known
children:
Lydia Moody- everything unknown except she moved to southampton with family.
Florence Eleanor Moody and Sylvia Alice Moody *(twins) b. 1914 in London. Both married june 1935 - marriage reference suggests same day in southampton.
Sylvia married into name of kelly and died 1998, whilst florence married into simmons and died 1999and both died in southampton.
Alfred Moody - married 3 times, moved to southampton with family. died in county. One of the women married was called Mary.
Violet elizabeth Moody
*Sylvia kelly nee moody had 3 children all born in southampton. 1) sylvia died at 15 months. 2nd Gloria- married into holloway lived bitterne. 3rd john 'johnny' who died whilst pushing his friend 'roy' away from an oncoming vehicle, was hit by a bumper of a car and killed some what instantly (crashed into wall and crushed by car)... not sure what age or when abouts but from notes i assume they mean northam bridge, because thats the only bridge which is attached to bitterne road... and averagely guessing it would have been between early 40's- 70's. quite a gap i now. any suggestions on how i could possibly narrow this down on my search, or what the best sort of paper to search would be?
Just kinda hoping someone doing a moody 'hunt' recognises any names from thisor even better knew of them.... I'm gonna add information as it comes via relatives of violet.
