Aphrey Moody, Essex County, VA is the daughter of Lewis Moody and his wife Sarah. Aphrey was the aunt of Colonel W. Lewis Moody (CSA) who later became a rather wealthy banker and cotton dealer in Galveston, TX. Colonel Moody was born in Essex County, VA on May 19, 1828. He attended the University of Virginia from 1847 to 1851, and after passing the bar exam, he set out for the burgeoning state of Texas. He settled originally in Fairfield and practiced law there.
According to a letter from Charles A. Taylor, Jr., Taylor Roane Carneal, and Preston P. Taylor dated November 23, 1953, Sthreshley Taylor and Aphrey Moody Taylor, his wife were buried in a "cemetery plot on the old place in Essex County." As of 1999, we have been unable to pipoint the "Old Place." The 1953 letter does indicate the graves have been located but the plot has been plowed over.
