Hello Sisson list, I posted this once before but received no replies. As this is such an active list and so knowledgeable about the Sisson family, I thought I would try again. I am in the very unusual position of having two contradictory sources for information concerning who my 6th great grandparents were. When I say source, I really mean source i.e. printed books and not just opinions or online downloads. As one of the two possibilities is a descendant of the Rhode Island Sisson line, I thought I would see if anyone on this list can prove or disprove this line. My fifth great grandparents were Jonathan Champlin and Mary Moon. According to one source, Mary's parents were Ebenezer Moon and Elizabeth Drake. According to the other source, Mary's parents were Jonathan Moon and Lydia Dawley. Since Jonathan Moon was a Sisson descendant, I was hoping someone could help me determine if he was the father of Mary Moon Champlin. According to information from the Sisson website at http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~dasisson/richard/aqwg08.htm. Jonathan Moon is the great great grandson of Richard Sisson (1608-1684) and Mary (d. 1692) Sisson of Rhode Island through their daughter, Anne Sisson Tripp. Anne's son Job Tripp was the father of Ann Tripp Moon who was the mother of Jonathan Moon. So, does anyone know if Jonathan Moon had a daughter Mary Moon who married Jonathan Champlin? Thanks for your help. Regards, Neil
