About Dan Moody
Born in 1893 in Taylor, Texas, Dan Moody grew up to be the youngest governor of Texas. As a small boy, Dan worked on the family dairy farm and later found work as an electrician. As District Attorney, he accomplished a task that no one else had ever dreamed possible: he was the first person to successfully prosecute and convict a member of the Ku Klux Klan for a crime in 1923. Governor Moody served two terms from 1927 to 1931 and later opened a law office in Austin, Texas.

His family home has been fully restored and still contains many of the family heirlooms and furnishings.
