Title: MOORE, Charles Henry b: Shetland Islands
Post by: Tiffaney on Saturday 29 January 11 06:24 GMT (UK)
A good friend has sent me a Charles Henry MOORE who born in Shetland Islands and was buried in Wanganui, New Zealand.
Married Rosina Rebecca SCHWASS b: 1871 in Nelson NZ.
Will give you their children's christian names in case they may help learn more about Charles.
Lynda Marjory; Lilly Jane; Alice Vera; Francis Henry; Robert; Sophia; Gladys Jessie.

If anyone can find MOORES in Shetland Islands or above Charles Henry, they would be an excellent breakthru'.

Many thanks,
Tiffaney

Hi Tiffaney,
Doesnt his NZ Marriage or Death Certs have his Parents names?
What is his approximate date of Birth?
Did he die age 82 in 1945? (so born c 1863)

There are a lot of Moores born Shetland on Census entries but Charles is hard to pin down without more info.

Many thanks for your reply Trish.  I have mislaid my NZ Index 5 where I would hopefully find his details.

You have answered an important question which I thank you for that there were Moore families in the Shetland Islands.  If I find dates you asked for will post them.

Much appreciated,
Tiff

Thanks very much Monica - big help.

Do you know how I can sort out getting notifications of new messages please.  I have tried all I can think of to no avail.
Extremely frustrating for members who go to a lot of trouble & time to help me and receive no immediate reply.

Thanks,

I am Researching Charles Henry MOORE too :-)  On his marriage & Death Cert he states his parents are William Henry MOORE & Alice Mary MCKENZIE.  Says he is born in Irwen Scotland. I also have some of his childrens birth certs which state he is born in Troon, Irvine, and co Lanark Scotland, So info is not consistant!
