Matthew Moody b ca. 1758 Yorkshire - South Cave?

[Emsworthy]

Matthew Moody was my 5xGt Grandfather. 

He was married to Ann Martin in South Cave on 23 March 1801.

He features on the 1841 census (HO107; Piece: 1217; Book: 10;  Folio: 20; Page: 33) where he is listed as age 82, a tailor in Market Place, South Cave. He is listed as being born in Yorkshire.

Matthew died in 1845 (1845 J Quarter in BEVERLEY Volume 23 Page 7) listed as age 87.

Please could someone see if they can find a baptism for Matthew?

I have found a baptism for an Elizabeth Moody:

Elizabeth, daughter of Matthew Moody of Faxfleet in the parish of South Cave, December 7th 1755.

A sister, maybe?

Perhaps widening out your line and seeing who was present at the Marriages (as witnesses) and also any Wills (if any) for this family etc., might give you some clues about family origin?

Also the Informant on some Death Certificates might be a relative.

Matthew Moody was my 5xGt Grandfather. 

He was married to Ann Martin in South Cave on 23 March 1801.

Both signed and she signed Ann Martins

Comments:

1) By Banns (so no Marriage Licence at the Borthwick Institute, York, to check)
2) Matthew Moody a Widower, so Moody has been married before.
3) In the Marriage Register there are 8 marriages in the Book opening and the names of those present as witneses are not repeated in the other 7 Marriages, which suggests those present are family and/or friends, neighbours or even co-workers, to the couple?

Hi Mark,

Thank you so much for taking the time to look all of this up! I'm really grateful for all of the information - it will really help pad out the tree.

'The Diary of Robert Sharp of South Cave, Life in a Yorkshire Village, 1812-1837', edited by Crowther & Crowther, OUP 1997 ..... gives seven mentions of Matthew/Matty/Merchant Moody and one of his son Mails. --- but no baptism.

Hello Emma

Matthew Moody had a lot of children with Ann(e) at South Cave and he had also been married before as well.

Bringing surviving children forward into the Census, you might be fortunate and find another elderly Moody relative or a Cousin in a Census Household, with a Birthplace?
 ----------
Thomas Foster married Jane Moody, but as the James Mailes, Grandson, 1853 newspaper Death notice says Late Mr Thomas Foster, so Thos Foster who married Jane Moody died early.
