Individuals : Charles H. MOON
Notes for *Charles H. Moon:
Charles first Married Louise Goodermote then Clara D. Houghtling.
Some records state that he was from Shaftsbury, Vt.Other records state he was from Arlington, Vt. (I sent for his birth certificate and Vermont reports that there isn't one for him. We are starting to wonder if he was born in N.Y. like some of his siblings.)Not much is known at this date (3/20/1997) about the Moon family. We know that Clara died very young shortly after giving birth to her daughter Agnes in 1925, supposedly from lobar pneumonia. Unfortunatly, I never asked Gram Sweener, their daughter, Florence Doris, any questions about her family.
The 1900 census in Berlin, N.Y. shows:
Charles born 1876 is 24 years old. He is a boarder, living with: Fred Adams and Charles Adams, apparently brothers, along with Suzetta Adams and Hellen Adams, relationship unclear. Charles was working as a farm laborer.
The 1920 census for Stephentown shows:
Charles and family are living on East Road, Stephentown.
Clara's brother Henry, wife Sophia and family are living on Garfield Road.
Eric Martinson found a Selective Service Card for a person we feel is our Charles. It reads as follows:
Charles John (?) Moon b. April 14, 1875
Employed - Walter Goold Nassau, RFD Farmer
Permanent home/residence - East Nassau
Registration date - Sept. 12, 1917/1919 age 43
Med. height Med. build Blue eyes Sandy hair.
local board for div. 2 Rennselaer County State of New York Hoosick Falls
It is reported that Aunt Sophie said after Clara died that as long as he drew a breath, the family would not be separated. Three years later, Charles died of pneumonia and the children were all separated. For the most part they never reunited completely until between 20 and 33 years later.
In a conversation (in July, 1997) with Dorothy Hoffman Moon Miner, Roy Moon's
widow, she told Tina that Roy never talked about his parents much at all, but did say that Charles had red hair. That conflicts with the draft card entry above, but that draft entry is probably not our Charles, though most of the statistics match. The middle name of JOHN doesn't correspond with the known middle initial of H that appears on most of the info relative to Charles

Individuals : Roy Elmer MOON
Notes for Roy Elmer Moon:
Roy Elmer Moon was a very loving man, who liked to hug and kiss, according to his widow, Dorothy Moon Miner. Tina visited with her in her home in North Adams, Mass. in July 1997. She is 82 years old, and not in the best of health. Her daughter Thelma was there, as were Thelma's daughters, Eunice and Charmaine.
Aunt Dorothy said that the day of Roy's death, it had rained alot. During the morning, while she was feeding her two youngest children, Roy called to her. She went into the room where he was and he pointed out that the brook (Kinderhook) was rising. She asked him to stay away from it, because it was looking dangerous.
Later that afternoon, he reported to work, on the farm of Mr. Avery. Upon completion of his chores, Mr. Avery asked Roy and a Mr. George McFee, age 75, to go to the home of the Gary's, to see if they could salvage any of the Gary's belongings, as the were not home to do so for themselves. They did go.
Aunt Dorothy says that sometime after five o'clock on the afternoon of Sunday, July 22, 1945, someone came to her door, and informed her that Roy had drowned in the brook. She said that she grabbed her babies and ran down the hill. She said, "it was lucky that I didn't kill all three of us, because I was running so fast." When she reached the brook, she handed the babies to someone on the bank, and started to go toward the brook to look for Roy. She was held back from doing so.
The Berkshire Eagle reported the story for most of the next week. In the articles, it states that Mr. Gary and his family returned home just before their home left it's foundation. He saw Roy and Mr. McFee and shouted to them to "forget the appliances, get out and save your lives". Roy was seen jumping out of a window, and hitting an embankment, which gave way immediately. His body was recovered some 200 yards down stream, caught on a tree limb. Mr. McFee never was able to get out of the house before the whole house washed away.
Aunt Dorothy told his story with such sorrow, especially when she looked at me and said, "I told him to stay away from the brook, but he just wouldn't mind me... he just wouldn't mind me." She blames Mr. Avery for Roy's death, saying he should have never asked Roy to "go down there."
The towns people of Hancock, Massachusetts collected $112.00 and presented it to Roy's widow, one week after his death. The Gary family was aided by the Red Cross, which gave them temporary shelter, clothing and food. Roy left a 30 year old widow and four small children. He indeed died a hero.
Aunt Dorothy has carried a small picture of herself, Roy and Thelma for the entire 52 years since his death. It is the only picture that she had. She said, "we were too poor to have a camera."The picture is faded, but shows a young family with so much promise. We made a copy of the picture for ourselves and several for her. It turned out that the copies came out clearer than the original. She will never be without her memories of her Roy and the life that they had together. To this day she says, "I wish I had had him here with me right now."
Dorothy went on the marry a Mr. Miner and have a set of twins. However, it was not a happy match, as "I found out that there were three or four other Mrs. Miners". She didn't elaborate and I didn't pry.
On Roy's birth certificate, it reads: Number of children born to this mother, including this birth - 2 Number of children now living - 2

Individuals : Ada Belle WHEELER
Notes for *Ada Belle Wheeler:
Gladys Sweener lived with Ada from the time of Wilson's death. Uncle Pete said that it was because Gladys didn't want Ada to be lonely. Gladys lived with Ada until her death in 1951, Gladys having married in 1949and having 2 children in 1950. Tina's first Christmas was spent in this home. The first tree was a tree branch in a trash can.
Nelson Sweener says he always got along with her and loved her. He told Tina a story about Ada Belle telling him that she would love to go to the Empire State Building. When he was in the service, he went and got her a post card of the Empire State Building, so that she could see what it looked like. However, by the time he could get home and give the card to her, she had died. He placed the card in her casket with her, so that it would always be with her. The story brought this to mind :
Tina's senior pictures were taken in Sept. of 1967, so that we would get them back in time for Christmas. Doris, Nelson's mother and Tina's grandmother, died in California on December 11th of that year.She had been so excited that I would be graduating the following June, thatI placed the signed picture that was hers in her casket, so that she would always have it, as I had received the pictures from the photographer just days after she died.

Notes for *Wilson Dodge Sweener:
From Living Gravestones - Stephentown Heritage Center
" 1911 tax, 10 acre farms from Stephentown Center to Cranston Ave. $225. and 1 dog. same in 1913, 1 dog, 1910, 1912. same in 1916, no dog, 1917-1923.
died 18 April 1936
Registered Democrat 1926
Registered for draft 12 June 1917, age 44, general farming, b. 8 Aug. 1873
Was constable in 1921.
From newspaper clipping (encapsulated in Rhoda Horton's murder article), "Wilson Sweener pleaded not guilty to the charge of bigamy. He is charged with having married Maude Whitman on Sept. 5, 1893 and with having prior married to Ada Wheeler at Stephentown. Warren McConihe, he announced was his counsel." Appeared before JP 25 July 1932, disorderly conduct against Parker Poole.
Lived on Black River Road at the time of his death. Said to have very red hair. Gave Uncle Pete (Nelson Willis Sweener) the nickname of PETE. Uncle Pete has no idea why, as Wilson died when he was 3 years old and no one else seems to know why either.
From the notes of Ann Marie Sweener:
"Wilson was a farmer and a logger. He and his family lived on Black River Road in Stephentown, N.Y. Wilson had one of the first sawmills in Stephentown."
It is said that Wilson was abandoned by his natural parents, Andrew Dodge and Ellenor Kittle. There were are couple of stories, one being that he was abandoned in a corn field, the other being that he was left with the Sweeners. The logical one is the last, as we know what the names of Wilson's birth parents are, his natural siblings, birth dates, etc.
Written concerning his funeral:
Wilson SweenerDied April 17, 1936
"The funeral of Wilson Dodge Sweener was largely attended Monday afternoon from his residence in Stephentown Center, N.Y. Rev. Oscar Arnold officiated. The bearers were: Stephen Mattison, Frank Cole, Harry Launt, and Willis Launt. Internment was in Garfield Cemetary. Mr. Sweener was born in Hancock, Mass. on August 8, 1872, but spent most of this life in Stephentown Center, New York.
Death came as a great shock to his many friends and neighbors, although he had been ill health for several years.
Survivers are his wife, Mrs. Ada Wheeler, daughter, Mrs. Willis Goodermote, 2 sons, Ulysses of Stephentown and Nelson of Stephentown Center. Six grandsons and six granddaughters."
