Looking for information on my grandfather John Caldwell Clements and his connection to the Moon family. The only info I have is that James Moon was listed as his cousin on the ships (S.S. Camaronia) manifest when he visited in October of 1922. My grandfather listed Main street  Clogher, Tyrone County as his last permanent residence in Ireland and his residence in the U.S. was Gutenberg, New Jersey. the James Moon he visited was listed as Eskernabrogue, Clogher, Tyrone County. Any info is appreciated as I cannot trace the Clements back to Tyrone and there seems to be more info on the Moons in this area. I have also have identified connections with the Cauley's in Ballinrees, Macosquin.

John Caldwell Clements is from one of the Clements families living in the townland of Fernaghandrum in Tyrone. His brother Thomas died on 31st December 1921 and the paperwork from the administration is available at PRONI. It mentions John Caldwell Clements in this paperwork and so connects him to the townland of Fernaghandrum.
His brothers were Robert Brown Clements and Thomas Clements. He also had two sisters Margaret Isabella and Matilda Jane.

His father John died on 26th July 1885. His mother Jane died 3rd October 1890

Hopefully Robert Richards or someone in his family will find this and get in touch.

Many thanks
Christine

I think the link to John Caldwell Clements may in fact be to a person called James Moore rather than James Moon based on the surnames on the townland of Eskermabrogue. When i search irish geneology site for the name Moon the alternative is "Moan" but looks like Moore would also be a good alternative surname to search as it does look very similar in handwriting.

....a person called James Moore rather than James Moon based on the surnames on the townland of Eskermabrogue.

This is him in the 1901 census, a farmer.
