A Living Piece of Fairfield’s History Since 1860
Built in 1860 by W.L. Moody, a respected county merchant, the Moody-Bradley House remains a treasured landmark of Fairfield’s rich heritage. Originally constructed for his bride, Elizabeth Bradley, the home was later sold to his father-in-law, F.M. Bradley—one of Freestone County’s most influential figures—for $2,800 in gold.
This historic home saw the birth of their son, W.L. Moody Jr., in 1865. His daughter, Mary Elizabeth Moody Northern, is honored through the “Mary Moody Northern Library” in Fairfield.
