Were 1John and 2Thomas twins? ®1486
Did his father also leave him the lands in Waterford, Ireland that he had inherited from his father Samuel?
The will of Samuel Moody, Esq., of Moulton, co. Suffolk, dated 18 Feb. 1657/8. " To son John Moody my lands in Ireland."
This son John was the Sergeant Major John Moody, ca 1617-1680, of Ipswich, who entered his pedigree in the Visitation of Suffolk in 1664 by the College of Arms, claiming the arms granted to his ancestor Edmund Moody in 1540, which claim was allowed by Sir Edward Bysshe, Clarencieux King of Arms of the College of Arms. (Harleian Mss. 1085, British Museums, London). John, bapt. 3 Dec. 1617, became a merchant in Ipswich and was a captain of foot and major of horse in the Parliamentary army in the Civil War. Apparently he did not have to flee to Ireland after the monarchy was restored under Charles II. in 1660, being present in Suffolk for the Visitation of 1664. To whom did John will the "lands in Ireland' he inherited from his father, Samuel when he died in 1680?

I think that the John Moody, late of Ireland, who died 15 Sept. 1717, was the son of John Moody, of Ipswich, who died in 1680, and therefore the grandson of Samuel Moody, Esq. of Moulton. For this John, who was aged 14 in 1664, according to the Visitation of Suffolk of 1664, the age at death of 67 is consistent. I have no evidence of a wife and children. Did he die in Bury St. Edmunds, or in Ireland. Did he found an Irish branch of Edmund's lineage.
