Susanna MOON

[elizbarnes]

Hi,
 
This is a new lookup resulting from a thread in Devon Lookups.

Susanna MOON born abt 1792  Fowey,
Parents Philip and Mary MOON.

Any further information welcome.

What I know at present

Previously requested marriage detail in Stoke Dameral.
3 susanna's could have been bride.
Other 2 I can trace but not this one who looks more likely to be mine.

Susanna married George Trenowth/ Ternouth (pick your spelling ) in 1817.
Susanna was a widow in 1841 census and listed as Frnouth on Ancestry.
Has 5 children living with her. Age on this census 45. Rounding means anywhere from 1792-1796. Born in County.

She emigrated to Australia in 1851 in Jan so will not be on 1851 census.

Died in South Australia in 1867 aged 75.

Looking for information on her parents and sibling is possible.

Thanking you
Elizabeth

Thanks Fizzy.

From a court case in Australia, have found that Susan had a brother Joseph Moon born abt 1808 who married Faith Mudge in Devon. 3 children:
They had a son Philip abt 1831 Chagford, Devon
John Henry abt 1836 St Blazey
Martha abt 1834 died 1835 St Blazey
Faith died abt 1838 St Blazey.

Remarried to Jane Varcoe in 1843 St Austell
one child
Martha abt 1844 St Austell

Cant find them anywhere on 1841 or 1851 census. 1851 happy with as they are meant to have emigrated in 1847 on board the Cressy.

Susan's  4 eldest children also emigrated on the Cressy at the same time.
William, George, Susan and Catherine.

I have been searching but can't find Philip and Mary's marriage either.

I feel Philip maybe the son of Joseph Moon and Elizabeth Brown born abt 1766 in Liskeard.

Any clarification would help.

Thanks
Elizabeth

Hi. I came across this thread while looking for data on Joseph Moon and Faith Mudge. Can I ask whether anyone has better information now - in 2019 - about Joseph, his presumed sister Susan / Susanna and/or parents Philip & Mary?

There may never have been a marriage of course.
