John Mahon is the earliest Mahon found so far. We are not sure if john was born in Barbados, or when he was born but we do know that he was married in 1789 in St Lucy, Barbados to Sarah Napleton. John and Sarah are at the head of nine generations of Mahons in Barbados.
It is believed that the Mahons were planters but over the generations they have branched out into many other fields of endeavour.

Of interest, three generations down from John in the generation of Alexander Augustus Mahon 1847-1905, Three Mahon siblings married three Greaves siblings. thus making their offspring double first cousins. (See photo on Greaves page)
In the generation following, two Mahon sibling married two Alleyne siblings making their children double first cousins.

Thee are nine generations shown on the Mahon tree.

The Mahon family tree has, in large part, been put together by Robin Mahon and Robert Spence. I have added to it, particularly in the more recent generations of the tree and the greaves side of the family, but most of the work was done by them. It is still by no means complete, so if you have information on the family that does not show on this website (including Photos) we would very much appreciate recieving it from you so we can continue to grow the tree.
