'While a number of articles have been published on the Moody family from which the New England families of Moody and Kilbourn descend, little has been said about the identity of the mother of John and Frances Moody. This article will demonstrate that she was, in fact, Margaret Chenery of the family of that name which was based in Kennett, Cambridgeshire, England. ... The marriage of George Moody and Margaret Chenery is recorded on 12 Oct 1581 in Kennett, Cambridgeshire, a parish immediately adjoining Moulton.'
