Mode-Moad-Moade Surname Group

Mode-Moad-Moade Surname Group I want those with the surname of Mode, or kinship to the Mode family to have a place to share their ancestry, genealogy, and pictures.

My Mode clan is originally from Marion, McDowell County, North Carolina and traces its roots to Mary Jane Mode (?) Dover. She had a son, John Thomas Mode, and then married Augustus C. Dover circa 1871 in McDowell County. They had a number of children and the whole crew moved to Cocke County, Tennessee circa 1888. My grandfather, Joseph Wheeler Mode, was born there in 1899. John Thomas Mode married

Nancy Belle Green Holt in Cocke County. They and their children moved to Greenback, Tennessee in Blount County and my grandfather Joe eventually moved to Knoxville.

I was contacted Mark Mode at Ancestry, as DNA results showed that we are related, 4th cousins, or half 3rd cousins 1x removed. His 2nd great grandparents were William Green Mode and Winifred P. Crow. His great grandfather was Sylvester Abram Mode. His grandfather was Festus Green Mode, who had two brothers. His grandpa Mode told him his Mode clan came from Scotland, originally spelled Mowat, and that his Mode family came down from Pennsylvania with the Gettys family in 1792. His dad was John Frederick Mode who was accidentally killed at his home in August 2004. He had a brother, James Blaine Mode.

Hey folks,

Unfortunately this page was not set up with a FILES option, making it difficult for members to add their genealogy material, etc.

That being said, if we have anyone here that descend from the Bryson Summy Mode family in Oregon, I will be glad to share what I have gathered, not only on his family, but much of the DNA testing results that Sharon Henderson Noyes shared with me over time, which pieces together many of our lines, common ties, and connections.

I can send the file to you via Private Messenger….just give me a holler.
