Thanks Michele I have received an answer from a person that informed me how many miles away Fewston is from Danby. Well, with 67 miles I really don't believe that Fewston is the correct place for my MOON family. I do know that Jane MOON married John COLLIER at Danby/ Glasidale area in May 1770 so I really believe that my MOON family is probably from somewhere around Danby (near Whitby) Perhaps your husbands MOON family of the North York Moors would be more correct area for me...
