Laois (Queens) / Re: Greenham Family or Bull Family
« on: Monday 03 June 24 08:10 BST (UK) »
Thank you this is very helpful. I am an Australian descended through Robert Greenham and Jane Moon who migrated to Australia. On DNA I am often matched through this maternal line to people in the USA but don't know where the link it. Maybe one of Jane Moon's siblings (i.e. children of George Moon) migrated to USA. Any ideas ?
We are working on the Moon families in the Dundee area, and came across the baptism of Margaret Greenham, 4th December 1843 (Cults in Fife Old Parish Register), daughter of Robert Greenham and Jane (Jean) Moon.
Cupar OPR, 1836
Robert Greenham, cotton spinner of the parish of Mountrath, Queens County (now County Laois) in Ireland, and Jane Moon, second daughter of George Moon of Russell Mill of this parish, married 3rd October by the Rev. John Moon, Minister of Newtyle.
The minister was married to Jane's sister Penelope Moon. Their father, George Moon, was hailed as a pioneer of flax spinning in north-east Scotland.
