The History of Moody

Moody was established in 1893. It was named after its founder, a person named Granville Moody. Imagine a new place being created and named after the person who helped start it! For many years, Moody had its own post office. A post office is a very important place where people can send and receive letters and packages. However, the Moody post office closed its doors in 1923. When a post office closes in a small community, it can sometimes mean that fewer people live there or that services are now handled by a larger nearby town.
