A linear operator S in a complex Hilbert space for which the set of its -vectors is dense in and is a Stieltjes moment sequence for every is said to generate Stieltjes moment sequences. It is shown that there exists a closed non-hyponormal operator S which generates Stieltjes moment sequences. What is more, is a core of any power of S. This is established with the help of a weighted shift on a directed tree with one branching vertex. The main tool in the construction comes from the theory of indeterminate Stieltjes moment sequences. As a consequence, it is shown that there exists a non-hyponormal composition operator in an -space (over a 蟽-finite measure space) which is injective, paranormal and which generates Stieltjes moment sequences. The independence assertion of Barry Simon始s theorem which parameterizes von Neumann extensions of a closed real symmetric operator with deficiency indices is shown to be false.
