His occupation is Engineer on his marriage certificate (1904), and later on Marine Engineer and then Electrical Engineer.

Would anyone know of any training or occupation records in Engineering that may provide some more details?

Thanks.

I have tried various first and last name combinations, as well as looking at some birth listings with the first name "not captured" ...

No luck so far.

Thanks - yes an indexed transcript of headstones in the cemetery has been checked, without result for this person / grave, so it seems as though there never was a headstone.

A fellow RootsChatter has kindly visited Lowestoft Cemetery, and there doesn't seem to be a gravestone or memorial for the person / grave above.

This topic can be considered completed - thank-you.

Thanks Pat.

Yes I've tried all of the online gravestone photo sites that I could find, without success.

Hi All,

I have an ancestor who was buried in Lowestoft Cemetery, and if anyone has any spare time I would very much appreciate a photo of the gravestone (if it still exists).

The details are :

Burial Plot L/F/275
William CALVER, buried 08/06/1912, 75yo

Thank-you in advance.

Regards.

Ireland / William Andrew MOORE, born 1870-80s
« on: Monday 29 February 16 11:04 GMT (UK)  »
Hi All,

I'm having trouble finding a birth record of a William Andrew MOORE.
He married Teresa Crawford MAGUIRE on 09 Aug 1904 in Belfast (full age at that time).
He died 20 Feb 1958, Belfast, said to be 76yo on his birth certificate, but 70yo on his burial record.
Some unconfirmed info from family puts his birth in 1873, so there is a wide possible range for his year of birth.

He was probably born in / around Belfast, to parents Thomas MOORE & Eliza Jane CARSON (m. 1873). (Siblings born in Belfast or Co. Down).

I've tried searching on GRONI, with all sorts of name variants, without success.

Any tips / help would be much appreciated.

Many thanks.

Aah I see - well I appreciate your effort in checking those records - thank-you.

Yes they are online (familysearch.org, Ancestry, FindMyPast etc), but don't have all of the information of the transcribed records that you refer to.
