Title: Look up Saint Peter, Leeds
Post by: cyclamen on Friday 25 April 14 13:43 BST (UK)
Would anyone be able to do a lookup for the marriage of Joseph Moody and Jane Wright which took place on 31st May 1830 in St Peter, Leeds? Thanks in anticipation.

Brilliant! Very many thanks for your quick response. I was hoping there would be an occupation for Joseph. I thought there might have been a father's name. Joseph seems to have ended up in Belfast where his daughter Hannah married. He died in 1852, a flax mill manager.

 I have a daughter Hannah Williams Moody christened 9th February 1834 and a son John christened 17th July 1831. I would appreciate a lookup for these just in case they give any further information.

I have now found a possible brother of Joseph. It looks as if two brothers married two sisters and both families lived in Belfast.

I would be very grateful if someone could lookup the marriage of Thomas Moody who married Maria Wright Williams on 27th December 1835 in Saint Peter, Leeds.

These  Moody/Wrights-Williams people are also my ancestors.  Would love to connect with anyone also working on this branch. Thanks! Suecicala@me.com

These Moodys unfortunately are not my branch. I will see if I have anything else relating to this family.
