This book is online in Google Books.  Searching for "Moon", I found on page 63:  Casper Moon, SR, Casper Moon, JR., James Moon, John Moon, Nathaniel Moon, Thomas Moon,  and William Moon.


Snyder county was formed in 1855 from parts on Union county.  Union county was formed in 1813 from parts of Northumberland county.  Northumberland was formed in 1772. 

I believe my husband's ancestor William Moon went to Tennessee by 1788 and likely came from Northumberland County, PA.
