Scott Moxon Hults, a Moxon Society member who lives in Alabama, USA has discovered that one of his ancestor's brothers migrated to Australia. He was John Walter Moxon, born 1850 in London, one of 11 children of George and Louisa Scott Moxon. He married Sarah Ann Pearson in Southwark, Surrey in 1872.
John W. and Sarah Moxon arrived in Melbourne on the Lincolnshire from Gravesend on 9th September 1875.
John Walter was the brother of Scott's great grandfather, Arthur Moxon, born in Lambeth, London in 1860 and died in New Haven, CT in 1909.
So here is another Moxon family spread around the world. Scott and his wife Vivian have been working on the tree MX48 for the Society.
The Moxon name originated in Yorkshire where it continues to have the greatest presence. However, there are now Moxons all over Australia and New Zealand. Moxons Down Under is an informal network within The Moxon Society which is incorporated in the UK. The Society has annual gatherings in England. We'd like to do so in Australia sometime soon. Each Moxon early settler is described separately. Check the topics or search for a name.
