I agree - I wonder if this is the poor little mite

Burial: 16 May 1844 St James, Church Kirk, Lancashire, England
James Moores -
    Age: 6 months
    Abode: Oswaldtwistle
    Buried by: J. Birchall
googled Church Kirk - it is in Hyndburn by Accrington - 25 miles from Oldham

Likely this baptism at St. James, Church Kirk, 31st Dec. 1843
James Moor son of James & Mary Ann. Abode Oswaldtwistle; occupation mill maker.
Henry, his twin and a sister, Sarah Ann were baptised same day.

Church Kirk is the old name for Church. Oswaldtwistle and Church were adjacent villages which merged into a town and have now merged with the town of Accrington. Hyndburn is the modern local council district.
