William Moore. 1861. Burial.

[p.risboy]

William Moore died early J/F/M 1861. at the age of 11 years.

Father, Jacob Moore(d.1888), mother Rebecca Moore(d.1854). Both parents were buried at Gorleston & Southtown cemetery. Even his stepmother was buried there.

No sign of William Moore in the same place. You would have thought that he would have been buried there, but sadly no. I searched from 1860 to l862, and nothing for him.

I have ordered his PDF cert of death, it may shed more light on the whereabouts of his burial.!?

Oh well, the death cert was no help for a location for William Moores' burial. Address was Gorleston. Date of death was 24th. Feb 1861.

But managed to find the informant, who was Elizabeth Sudder, b1817, Gorleston.

Jacob Moore snr, was discharged from the Army in 1857. This means his 2 sons, Jacob & William, were being looked after by some unknown person for 3 years, as his wife had died in 1854 in Gorleston.

Another couple of mysteries, Williams Burial and who looked after them for 3 years.

Get one answer to a question, and raises other questions.

Steve have you tried contacting the cemetery to see if they have him on their records, if not could be worth a try.

Few spelling errors with the computer generated thingy i guess.

I've looked through the original online images of the Burial record books, for the period of his death +/- 1 year.

Worth a try, indeed.

Thanks Gibbo.
