  • Notes 
    • One of the Moody daughters (not Ann) married John Hutchinson. John's daughter, Elizabeth (d: 1781, of smallpox, contracted by nursing American POW's at Charleston, SC) married Andrew Jackson (d: 1767). Andrew and Elizabeth had three children: Hugh Jackson (d: 1780), Robert Jackson (d: 1781, in the same POW prison as his mother) and Andrew Jackson (b: 15 Mar 1767, d: 8 June 1845). Andrew Jackson married Rachel Robards (b: 1767, d: 1828) in 1791. President Andrew Jackson is the author's cousin, 5 times removed.
