I am interested in descendants of the Moon's of Moon's Farm, Hollowforth, nr Woodplumpton, Preston, Lancashire. The Moon's where Quaker Pioneers in the 1600's. One branch was headed by John Moon b abt 1590 who's descendants migrated to Liverpool, Kingston Jamaica & back to Warickshire where they held a Baronecty at Copsewood Grange. Henry Moon b abt 1587 was the progenitor of the Moon's of Catforth, Kirkham, Eccleston in Lancashire & U.S.A as Mormon converts. Thomas Moon b abt 1594 emigrated to Scarborough Co, Viginia, U.S.A abt 1640. There are 5 more brothers to the above Anthony, John, Richard, William & Edward Please get in touch if you are interested. Thankyou. Good book to read " Moon's of Amounderness" by R. Cunliffe Shaw.
