Does anyone have access to the 1841 census. Need more information on William Moon. His son Henry John Moon born 1820 -1822 immigrated to Australia in 1839 onboard Cornwall. His mother is noted as Mary Richardson

Have you looked on IGI to see if any possible siblings and tried to find them on any census

No middle name given on IGI

Possible for Hannah Moon christened 1820
