Thomas Moodie

(c 1815 - 1864)
Father*Thomas Mudie b. c 1776, d. b 1851
Mother*Mary Gordon Nicoll b. 1784, d. 1863
Thomas Moodie was born in Scotland circa 1815.

He studied law at Edinburgh University (1832-3) before emigrating to the US in 1836, settling first in Adams County, where he sent back to Scotland for his fiancee to join him.1

He married Jane Ashwell, daughter of Thomas Ashwell and Euphemia Abernethy, in West Union, Ohio, on 6 November 1838. After the marriage they moved briefly to Cincinnati before settling in Columbus, Ohio in 1840.1

At the Ohio state legislative session of 1837-8, the Mechanics' Savings Institute, a bank of deposit, was incorporated and soon after went into operation in Columbus. Wm. B. HUBBARD was President, and for a time Warren JENKINS was Cashier, then Thomas MOODIE. It continued till about the time the City Bank commenced business, when the former was discontinued, or merged into the latter.
The City Bank of Columbus went into operation under the law which authorised independent banks, secured by the deposit of State stock with the Treasurer of State. This bank was located in the same building as the Columbus Insurance Company, and to a great extent the stockholders in one of these institutions were also in the other. Thomas was Cashier during the whole existence of the Institution.
Finally the bank and Insurance Company both failed; the Insurance Company in 1851, and in November 1854 the bank closed its doors. The public lost nothing by the notes, they being secured, but it was ruinous to the holders of stock.
It is not known how much of the MOODIE family fortunes were involved in this banking collapse.2

He was listed in the 1850 US census in Columbus, Franklin, Ohio, with his wife Jane; he gave his occupation as 'banker' and their house was valued at $7000. Their children Euphemia, Mary, Jeannie, Thomas, Frances and Margaret were listed as living with them, as were two servants and Jane's parents Thomas Ashwell and Euphemia Abernethy.3

He was listed in the 1860 US census in Columbus, Franklin, Ohio, with his wife Jane; his occupation and the value of the house were not recorded, but a male clerk and female servant were living with the family, as were Isabella Moodie and Gordon Moodie (Thomas's niece and nephew respectively). Their children Euphemia, Jeannie, Frances and Florence were listed as living with them.4

Thomas died on 1 July 1864 in Columbus, Franklin, Ohio.5 He was buried at the Green Lawn Cemetery in Columbus.5

John Moody

(c 1811 - )
Father*Thomas Mudie b. c 1776, d. b 1851
Mother*Mary Gordon Nicoll b. 1784, d. 1863
John Moody was also known as John Mudie. He was born in Newburn, Fife, circa January 1811. and was baptised on 27 January 1811 in Newburn.1,2

He married Amelia Christie in Dundee, Angus, on 4 November 1836.3

He was recorded as a carpenter at time of his marriage (1836) and there has been some suggestion that he was a ship's Captain,who died off Land's End, possibly being buried at sea. However there is no supporting evidence, so he may possibly have served as a ship's carpenter.
