      • "Robert R. Rood settled quite early at Mooers Junction, and was an active, influential man. He erected a saw-mill, dealt largely in lumber, and was a large land-owner. He raised a large family. Horace, David, Josiah, and Robert Rood, sons, are living in town."

        "The first post-office at Mooers village was established Dec. 6, 1822, and Robert R. Rood was appointed the first postmaster. He held the office a great many years."
