[drewsearcher]

Hi there.  Can someone look up on the 1851/61 census a family in the name of Moon.  The head of the family was Joseph Moon born c 1834 in Bradford, Wiltshire.  He married Mary Ann who was born in 1836 in Shepton Mallet.  They had two sons by the time of the 1871 census, Frederick John Perrot Moon (born 1860) and Gilbert Henry Moon (born 1857).  They were living in Shepton Mallet at the time of the 1871 census.

Many thanks for your help in advance of a response.

Hi Drewsearcher Sorry I can find no Joseph Moon in Bradford in 1851 Census nor for that matter any Moons at all. In Shepton Mallet... I can find no Joseph moon either though there are numerous Moon Families and single individuals Sorry 

I Think this could b Mary Ann if it helps

Hi drewseacher
I have a Rowland Moon Born 19/6/1858.
He was born out of wedlock to Eliza Moon. She was the Daughter of Isaac and Elizabeth Moon of  Kilmersdon.
Eliza was a Servant Girl to Levi Treasure who was Rowlands Father.
Eliza had another Child out of wedlock Charles? She later married Charles Snook after which She had several more Children. Nothing further known of what happened to Rowland.
This may be of interst to you if it is the same Family.

Not the answer to your query BUT .... I have a George Moon acting as the informant on the death of my gt-gt-gt grandfather (Elisha Robbins) on 28 October 1878, Holcombe.  George is described as residing at Coleford.

This is your family on the 1861.  They are residing at Garston St, Shepton Mallet (schedule ref eight), which appears to be next door to the White Hart "beer house".  Joseph and Mary Ann are velvet weavers
