Hi,
My grandmother's second husband Amelia Louisa Greenham (nee Dowling) mrd.married ERNEST MOOR from Hull (bn. 1891) 17 Jan 1917 West Ham, fourth engineer on SS POWHATTON and was sunk off Nth. Hebrides 6 April 1917. torpedoed by U66 and did not survive.
There was a Wiliam Henry Moor (brother?) at the marriage and I am interested if there are surviving family of the MOORS form the HULL area who might have connections with the above as there may be early pictures or information from this sad occasion as the marriage only lasted 3 months.
Would there be any WEST HAM newspaper articles covering this article as my mother was 10 years old a the time.
Regards
