McKendree M.E. Church, South, in Nashville Tennessee has played a variety of roles in the Moran family. There have been weddings and funerals and family memberships. Manie Campbell Hatton, daughter of Confederate General Robert Hatton and Sophie K. Reilly, was a member of McKendree. Sophia Ezzell, grand-daughter of Captain John W. Moran, had a grand wedding ceremony at McKendree in November 1919 when she married Matthew Dobson. The McKendree Church held a special place in the family, so much so that Virginia Shumate Moran kept this postcard in a folder with her children's school reports, letters, and other family items she held dear.
