I’m wondering if that’s where Joseph Smith, Jr., the founder of Mormonism got his idea of Pilgrim type people living on the moon.

That was my first thought, too, as well.
The early 1800s must have been an interesting time, to say the least.

There are no contemporary accounts of Joseph teaching this, and nothing in his own writings about moon people.

The moon is more believable.
