   THOMAS S. MOOD farmer, P.O. Point Pleasant, is a grandson 
of John Mood, who was of German extraction and came from 
Lehigh county. He died about 1843, aged 85 years. His wife, 
who was a Miss Klinker, died before him. He had a numerous 
family. His son Enos, father of Thomas S., was born on the 
house in this township, which he bought after his father's 
death. He died at Reigelsville about eight years ago. He was 
a plain, hard-working man and a member of the Reformed 
church at Nockamixon. His wife was Anna Sumstone. Mr. and 
Mrs. Mood had seven children:  Uriah (deceased), Samuel, 
Newberry, Clinton, Catherine, Anna and Thomas S.  The latter 
was reared to farming, which, with the exception of three 
years spent on the canal, has been his life-long occupation. 
For the past twenty-six years he has lived on the same place 
near Point Pleasant. In December, 1860, he married Sophia, 
daughter of John N. Solliday. She died in February, 1878, 
leaving two children: John Edward, who died in 1885, aged 22 
years, and Anna, who lives with her father. Mr. Mood was 
again married to Catherine Tettemer, a native of this 
township. He is a member of the Tinicum Reformed church, of 
which he has been trustee. He is an upright man, respected 
by the people who know him.
