I believe that this Robert Oswald Moon is the son of Robert Moon of Queen's College, Cambridge, and therefore the newphew of Richard Moon. I have a biography of Richard which I could use to add more information about Robert's side of the family. But I don't have a reliable source to link the two. The Lancet says Robert Oswald's father Robert was a barrister and the biography says Richard's brother Robert was a barrister and academic, and the dates are roughly right, but the best source I can find to definitely link the two is this peerage website which is not an RS and specifically deprecated. The source is given there as Burke's Peerage, 2003 edition, volume 2, page 2755. If anyone with a copy of Burke's could verify the relationships soon, then I can add in the other info.
