The Quakers kept careful records, but the minute book for the years 1734-1759 were lost when a fire destroyed the home where they were kept. But among the few records surviving is this one, reprinted in the book "Hopewell Friends History" p. 50: "At our Monthly Meeting of Hopewell at Opeckan the fourth Day of the second month A. D. 1748. ... The ffriends appointed to see Wm. Brown & Hannah Moons Marriage Accomplished report that it was decently Consumated."

Sometime around 1750 Hannah, her sister, Margaret, and their husbands moved to "Orange County," NC, near what is now Snow Camp, Alamance County. They were founding members of Cane Creek Monthly Meeting of the Society of Friends, which formed in 1751. At that location they were blessed with thirteen children, all of whom grew up and married. Hannah is thought to have died in 1799, but in any case sometime between November, 1797, when her husband William wrote his last will, and February, 1800, when he died. Her grave at Cane Creek Cemetery is no doubt marked with a simple field stone, as was often the custom then among Quakers.

According to the "Encyclopedia of American Quaker Genealogy, Volume 1" by William Wade Hinshaw, the following children were born to William and Hannah in Orange County, NC: Thomas, born 10-28-1749 Samuel, born 5-30-1751 William, born 1-26-1753 Rachel, born 10-2-1754 Hannah, born 6-5-1756 Richard, born 1-6-1758 Sarah, born 1-28-1760 Mary, born 9-18-1762 Ebunazar, born 5-3-1763 Anne, born 12-17-1765 Joseph, born 9-23-1767 Joel, born 1-29-1769 Deborah, born 4-8-1774
