Listmembers: At least part of the Moon family moved to Chambers County Alalbama, ca 1840 where they were involved in the mercantile business near the Community of Freedonia, Alabama. They were somehow associated with part of my Tankersley family that moved there also. There still exists in Columbia County a Moontown Road near Winfield which presumably went to the Moon home. The progenitor of the Tankersley branch that moved to Chambers was William Brooks Tankersley, Jr.(b.ca.1815,d.ca. 1880) who married Mary Clay. I think the Moon and Clay families were also associated. I do not know much about these people but had run into this association in trying to research William B.Tankersley, Jr. BTW, he returned to Columbia County by 1860,cause unknown but suspected to be because his wife died, and thence he went to Elbert County GA, remarried, and lies in a so far unknown grave. Death date also unknown. If anybody knows anything about him, please let me know. Joseph Jordan (Joe) Tankersley Appling, Columbia County Georgia Residing at the Old Kiokee Tannery
