Hello, all...great site!
I was particularly interested in the posting from Penny Pierce; although I got a lot of interesting stuff from it, I was a little confused, and I think I could clear one or two things up for you as well...

I'm a descendant of John Christopher's brother Robert Austin Moody. He left the family in Georgia in the early/mid 1850s and came out to California to become a miner.
The John C. you refer to, who married Minerva Elizabeth Durham, was the son of John Moody (b. 1802 in NC) and Catherine (unknown, from TN), so they are NOT related to Henry Moody.

They had the children you mentioned--John A, Georgia Ann, Terrora B, Louisa Catherine, and James MARION Moody (b. 2/11/1855 in Red Bay, Franklin Co., AL). James Marion Moody did indeed marry Sarah Elizabeth SHOOK (b. 10/18/1858 in Delta County, Texas). Their children were Brierson A., Arbanner (or Arbanna), Minnie, J.C., Donie, Willie and James MONROE Moody (b. June 1893, Delta Co., TX).
I am very pleased to be able to add information on Arbanna/er and her marriage to my files...so thanks! I hope my info was helpful as well.

All the best....
