Possible Children Mary Elizabeth Moon*

We are very unsure about this connection. It
is a sheer guess on my part. This should be considered only a beginning
for a long investigation.

We still don't know which of the Moon family was the father of Mary
Elizabeth Moon. According to the way I read the record she could be the
child of
John or Robert D. Moon. Assuming that she was at least 16 years old in
1832 she would have to be about 12 years old in 1820.
