Frances was not sister to Catherine Ardena, Greene married #1 Martha Peavey Flournoy STEP SISTER TO CATHERINE.
Accouding to 1860 Census line 18-21
Sylvanus Moody age 51
wife Margaret age 38
dau Martha age 12--by Margarets 1st husband a Mr Peavey.Dau Elizabeth age 1
The 1870 Census line 23-21
Sylvanus is now 60, as is wife Margaret (should be 48..) Dau Martha is 22,
dau Elizabeth is age 11,
A son (name un clear..looks like Doobers) Age 8 and CATHERINE Age 5.Who happens to be my Grandmother.
Greene Betts Moody married 3 times. His FIRST WIFE WAS MARTHA-(who married a Flournoy)) Greene also had a sister Mary Jemima that m a Joel Flournoy of Talbot co , ga..were they related or the same Flournoy? Martha & Green M about 1865 Then he married Frances Railey
1880 census llth day of June, line 5.
Greene is 34, married within census year,
Catherine 18 (should be 15) married within census year. . George age 9 b Ga.
Emily age 5
Joseph9/12 born within census year month of aug.
WIFE FRANCES AGE 30 DIED WITHIN CENSUS YEAR.
My mother said she was the youngest daughter of her fathers 18 children..I can account for only 14..perhaps he &First wife Martha Peavey Flournoy Moody ad children...I haven't found them four sure but hope to.
My mother Katie Louise Moody Wright told me her father did marry sisters..step sisters. also Catherine and Greenes fathers were brothers, they were John & Sylvanus sons of Riley Moody & Mary Thomas. John and Jemima Whitley were Greenes parents and Sylvanus m Margaret BETTS. If the 1860 census is right John and Sylvanus were bothe the same age...Twins?
