Moody Burt STEWART

It is said that Moody went up the Missouri River but returned to Mississippi. In the 1860 census for Monroe Co., MS, (Moodys wife died in 1855) there are 3 more children living with Moody and his other children, they are: Louisa Lamore age 10 born in MS, H.J. Lamore age 7, born in MS and Rupis M. Lamore age 5, born in MS. Also Mary Susan and Augue are not living with the family and Roena (Rowena), Argine and M.C. are living with another family.
NOTES from Vanetta McVey: Moody accumulated several thousand acres of land in Monroe County along the Tombigbee River. When Pres Lincoln freed the slaves, Moody freed 59 slaves, giving each 100 acres of farm land.
Nancy's father had a brother, Moody Burt whom I believe she named her son after. Moody Burt had fought in the Revoluationary War.

Malinda Ann STEWART

Malinda married a Mr. Smith and went to Dallas County, TX.
In a copy of a citation notice in the State of Mississippi, Malinda's brother, Moody and John are trying to contact her and some other family members who own land (et all). It appears that they were in Texas and told to return to Mississippi. Not just Malinda but it also says that many of the family was in Freestone Texas.
