Biography
This profile is part of the Moon Name Study.
Husband of Mary Dudley 1772–1825 (m. 1795) and Nancy Townes Ligon 1784 – unknown
Greenville Mountaineer, 10 January 1840:
"Departed this life at his residence in Greenville District on the 1st inst., after a protracted illness, Mr. John Moon, in the 74th year of his age. The deceased was a native of Lunenburg County, Virginia, but has been a citizen of this District for the last 40 years. He has left a large circle of relatives and acquaintances to mourn the departure of a kind and affectionate husband, parent and neighbor, but it is believed that their loss is his eternal gain, for he gave full evidence that he was prepared to meet his Judge in peace."
