The Breakwell an Moody Family have connections between Durham and Staffordshire
http://www.bcconnections.tribalpages.co ... =423231097

but on 1881 Census All family are shown as born Staffs.

Mary A. Breakwell Head 60 (wid)
John Moody son.in.law 25 Coal Miner
Hannah Moody dau 21
Edward Moody grd.son 5
All born Staffs.

Hannah Breakwell married John Moody in 1879 Stockton Durham

Moody family appears to have emigrated to USA in 1882

But I cannot find John Moody before marriage born Staffordshire ?

Only other Moody in workhouse is Henry Moody inmate aged 6 Scholar
who went on to become a Bootmaker dealer and married a Sarah Ann Bowen
Marriage cert shows no father
No obvious connection to John Moody born in Workhouse 1855
