returned to the Jackson County Court and recorded. The
Inventory was not dated but the one before it was dated
20 Mar 1809 and the one after was dated 1 Jul 1809. No
list of heirs was given. Appraised value was $727.37
1/2, sale amount was $360.06 1/4. Jackson Co., GA,
Inventories, Appraisals, Returns, --- p. 311.
Grandchildren of William MOON who may have been the
children of Jesse, were Sally, Jesse and Stephen. Sally
MOON was bound to Sarah MOON, Jesse was bound to
Archelus MOON and Stephen was bound to William H. MOON.

Jackson Co.
1526 Bolier MOON b.c. 1780 Bedford Co., VA, d. 1840/1850
Jackson Co., GA, Probable children: Jason, Jackson,
Hartwell, Robert, Elizabeth and Betsy. These children
are referred to as nephews in the will of Williamson
dated 17 Dec 1832, Jackson Co., GA. These children were
heirs of Williamson to the land lottery chances of Boler
Moon which Williamson bought from Boler. The names of
Boler's children are not known. It is quite likely that
the children would receive the land that resulted from
the chances their father had bought. The name of Robert
Moon only was found in the 1850 census of Jackson Co.,
p. 40-1. He was age 49, wife Katharine R. 40, children

She died of disease contracted in China. She was
on her way home but was too weak to endure the
trip. She was cremated according to Japanese law
and her ashes were sent to Crewe, VA. She was the
most famous of all Southern Baptist Foreign
Missionaries who went to China. She went to
Tengchow in 1873. The Southern Baptist annual
Christmas offering for Foreign Missions (Lottie
Moon) is named for her.
