Amy Ann Webb

F, #8405, b. 1849, d. 1920

Parents

Biography

  • Birth: 1849; Pennsylvania
  • Death: 1920
  • Burial: Pleasant Hill Cemetery, Jackson Tp, Mercer County
  • Note: 1860 Census records name as Mary Ann; was attending school in 1860. A Haggerty family story was that Amelia Haggerty Webb had a grand-daughter who had married a man named Moon. John Moon's farm was located next to John Webb's farm according to the 1873 map of Jackson Tp. On the 1870 census John Moon's wife was identified as "Anna A." I think there is a good chance that Anna A. Moon was the eldest daughter of John Webb, but this is far from proven. In 1870 Anna A. Moon was 22 years old and her father, but not her mother, was foreign born.

Family: John Moon (b. 1844, d. 1924)

    SAMUEL M. WEBB, farmer, post-office Mercer, was born March 16, 1863, on the farm where he now resides. His father, James Webb, was born on the farm now owned and occupied by B. A. Williams, in East Lackawannock Township. He was a brother of Mrs. Daniel Nelson, of Mercer. He [James] married Belle McKay, who died in 1864, leaving one child, Samuel M. After the death of his mother our subject lived with his aunt, Eliza McLain, of Mercer, until five years old, and until eight with his father, when he was sent to Pittsburgh, where he attended school for four years, making his home with his aunts, Jane and Amelia, sisters of his father.
