MOONE, or MOON (RICHARD), bookseller in Bristol; Winn Street, 1661-3. In 1663 he was imprisoned for selling seditious literature. Letters were found on his premises from Thomas Brewster and S. M., probably Simon Miller, with whom he admitted having dealings, as well as with Eliz. Calvert, and other London booksellers. [Domestic State Papers, Charles II, vol. 81, No. 73, 73 i., ii., iii.] He may be identical with the Richard Moone, bookseller in London, 1653-5.
